When I checked in, the child at the desk gave me a key to a room that was occupied. Not once, but twice! Boy those were awkward conversations. Once we got a room to ourselves, had to barricade the doors so the same wouldn’t happen to us. Rooms are nominally non-smoking but smell like smoke. Hair and dirt in the sheets; likely hasn’t been washed between guests. Mold and leftover food in cupboards. Overall a miserable experience- wouldn’t do this even if it were free; a tent would’ve been a more peaceful stay!

Pictures of hotel online do not match the condition of the property, very dark and dingy rooms, damaged door frames, not all lights work, some kind of camper spaces in the back that look trashy and not safe. Did have to stay the first night but found a real hotel the next day. A waste of money, I DO NOT recommend staying at hotel, good luck if you do!

We stayed to work but couldn’t take it , the floor was kinda damp and smelled like sewer . We only got two towels and a molding coffee maker. The fridge didn’t keep our food cold but froze in the back. It wasn’t very clean :( the front office little boy was sweet and I hate to leave bad reviews but it was so unclean

Comfortable, quirky little place
It's a small, dated place on the edge of town. Overall, it's not a bag place. The beds are comfortable and everything is clean. Be aware though, there is an RV park of sorts on the back side of the place. There is a phone number on the front door to call to check in or out since they are rarely in the office. If you don't call, you could be standing there for a long time. The a/c in the room was not working. The fan part of it worked, but the cooling was non existent. So, the room was overly warm (late July). Like I said, it's comfortable, if you don't mind some interesting little quirks.

They have an RV park and trailer parking. Bad room
I had a bad experience here. The room I originally paid for had a giant green stain on the sheets down to the mattress pad. I asked for sheets but ended up taking a smaller room. The shower sucked. Water would get all over the wood laminate floor from the way the curtain bar was installed. I ended up staying almost an extra month with a smelly refrigerator that made the food taste like ass and a giant gap under the door bringing in the outdoors and one huge ant. I did pay less for the second half of the stay but I should have went somewhere else. Beware of ghost that did meth and tried to kill me!

Yuuck!
I just have to say this place makes Motel 6 look like the Four Seasons. Its all around what I'd personally consider a half a star if anything. Its real gross inside the carpets probably the most disgusting thing in there. The back door to the patio has no lock so just anyone can walk in at any moment. It felt really unsafe. I wasnt able to get any sleep on account of feeling so unsafe. Theres holes all over the ceiling, I'm not sure why. I truly would have probably been better off sleeping in my car. Yikes!!

Absolute joke
Hotels.com says 24 hour front desk. Windmill website says 24 hours. Double checked because i knew i would arrive late. Signs all over the door say ring bell for service after 9 pm. 2 separate numbers to call. 1 out of service. The other no answer. After multiple calls and a message at 1 am after 12 + hours on the road i left and had to pay double for a bed. Just ridiculous

Luke warm water...not hot. Poor lighting. AC very poor..after 3 hours of AC it was hotter in the room than when I turned on the AC. No water glass. Toilet was not clean. Inadequate electrical sockets. No ID verification on check in. Left Key under the door mat at office per instructions when checking out. Looks like a nice 1950 place that has never been kept up.
