We have stayed here last summer and it was great. My only issue was the mattress in our room was a little too hard for mine and my husband's comfort. The owner and her family are super nice and sweet. Rooms are clean and plenty big that your not banging around against walls and the showers have hot water and great pressure! Already booked our room for next years week long county fair!

Great place to stay!

We have stayed here a couple of times. The family running this establishment are amazing. The wifi is a little wonky. But it is clean, the beds are comfy and they are continuously improving the property.

The woman who checked me in was very nice, and friendly. The Budget Inn met up to my standards considering I was in town just for a few days for my son’s homecoming at his University. The only thing I didn’t like about the area is that it was really difficult to get an Uber. I booked this place because it was 5 minutes away from my son’s college. I would stay again but this time book a rental
