What an incredible hotel. We ate at the hotel restaurant for dinner, and it was delicious!!! I…read morehighly, highly recommend stopping in for dinner here-- and the creme brulee is a perfect way to finish off the meal. The hotel was beautiful and well cared-for. If you need a place to stay in the area, this spot is a perfect choice. My friend could even see the World's Largest Hand-Painted Czech Egg from her hotel room window!

During one of our previous trips from Columbus to Denver, we did one of the SENCIC BYWAYS in Kansas…read more- running from the town of Wilson on the south to Lucas on the north. While in Wilson, we spotted the Midland Railroad Hotel and Restaurant and decided to arrange the itinerary for our next trip so we could spend the night in WIlson. So, we arrived late afternoon and got checked in. The hotel has been restored to what it was like around the 1920's but with full upgrades including fire sprinklers, air conditioning, etc. Our room was a bit on the small side (1920'ish) but was quite comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and we got a great night's sleep. The was a complimentary breakfast in the morning that consisted mostly of local bakery projects, meats and cheeses. If you looking for modern amenities or a full HOT breakfast, you should stick with the major hotel chains. BUT, if you're into history and histrorical restorations, this place can't be beat. We thoroughly enjoyed our night in Wilson at the Midland Railroad Hotel and Restaurant.

This place is truly a hidden gem! Russell is a great stopping point when driving across the…read moremidwest, and the Lodge is clean, hospitable, and welcoming. We were warmly greeted at the front desk and were surprised to learn they offer a complimentary breakfast--and it starts at 5:30 am to accommodate the folks heading out to fish in the morning! Our room was along the back of a long building, with plenty of parking at either end. In the yard behind the building is a bit of outdoor furniture and playground equipment. Our room had a nice-sized refrigerator, plenty of counter space, and a good shower. Everything was fresh and comfortable. Breakfast had plenty of hot and cold options and ample seating. There's also a game room in the main hall, which we didn't have time to check out. The Lodge was a great bargain and pleasant experience; I'm so glad we found it!

The place is cute and comfortable. Breakfast is really good. The staff went above and beyond for my…read moremom and I. We had an issue at breakfast w a woman who would not keep her dog on a leash. My mom asked and she told my mom it would be ok. The dog was behaved but once they sat down the dog tried to eat off her plate. If you have a service dog it should not be doing that. The dog wasn't not tethered to the owners. When the owner saw my mom's distress about the dog, he asked the owner if they could move to a different area to eat. The woman refused saying the ADA allows her to stay w her dog. We were able to leave without incident but my mom was restricted on her movements because the dog was near the coffee area and door. We witnessed the dog smelling the cabinets and fridge which just isn't sanitary. We appreciated that they were making sure my mom was ok.

At $80 a night you can't beat it. My room had a small fridge and microwave. A good clean, quiet and cheap place to stay.

Although the Post Rock Motel is rough around the edges, and is by no means a five-star hotel, I am…read moregiving it five stars primarily because its owner and administrator went above and beyond the call of duty to accommodate us when my wife (Libertad Green) and I were stranded near Lincoln, Kansas en route to California. Jared Spear owns the towing company and mechanic shop which towed and repaired our six-wheel, two-axle, Chevrolet box van. His assistant, Lisa, helped load our van on the tow truck, and checked us into to the Post Rock Motel, also owned by Jared Spear. This is a disturbing conflict of interest. We wondered why Mr. Spear would ever bother to repair our truck while we were paying him rent at his/the only motel in town. However, he repaired our truck in a reasonable amount of time, and we were able to finish our journey to California and back to Virginia. Meanwhile, without us saying a word, Mr. Spear lent us a vehicle free of charge to get around town. Also, when I asked Lisa for a desk or table to put our laptops on, she had one set up for us by the time we returned for lunch. She gave us her personal cell phone number in case we ever had any other emergency or needed anything else. We have never received better, more attentive service anywhere else. The bathroom was particularly adorable, with a tiny window at the back, with small Venetian blinds and a view of the road behind the hotel, and a cafe across it. The floor tiles, mostly yellow, were laid in a unique, cheery pattern which seemed to make our confinement significantly more pleasant. Our maids, a Cuban lady and her daughter, were also very attentive and pleasant. The mother told us she felt as if family members were moving away the day we loaded our box and departed. Lisa gave my wife one of the motel's T-shirts for her birthday, and charged us a reduced, weekly rate. Although I have stayed in many hotels and State rooms of higher caliber than the Post Rock Motel, all around the world, the service at this motel is unprecedented, and, although I may never to return to Lincoln, Kansas, it will always have a dear, special place in our hearts.
