Budget Lodging

This is a very good place to crash. what you get is par more than what you pay, just as the name suggests «Budget». The management was very polite, I would recommend this place anytime. the breakfast was just amazing. I loved the stay. Thank you Budget Lodging, you guys are doing great work.

My husband and I stayed here in December. Easy to get to and right off the highway. Called ahead (about 10 minutes) and the clerk immediately offered a cheaper rate due to the room being cold because it wasn’t used recently. We checked in and she took an additional $ 5 off! They are also pet friendly which was a huge plus. The room was very clean and smelled clean. Obvious pride in ownership. I’d recommend this hotel to my friends and would definitely stay there again.

This place was phenomenal! Family owned, brand new interiors, very comfortable beds! This sweet verse was waiting on the desk for us. This place is on par with holiday inn! Stay here if you need to rest.

I have stayed in many hotels/​motels across the country from LA, Vegas, Miami and New York. Some of them have been nightmares. But this little joint was perfect after 16 hours of driving. Clean, comfortable and priced perfectly. I would recommend this place to anyone and would be glad to stay here again. Well done.

I discovered Budget Lodging on my way to the west coast on business. I had a great stay and then opted to stay at BL on my way back to Indianapolis. I can’t say enough good things about the staff, grounds, facilities and cleanliness. I have only one negative: that the room they put me in had a brown recluse spider in it, right under the bed. Hey, stuff happens! They moved me to an upgraded room, which was A+. I will not let the spider incident deter me from recommending BL or from staying with these fine, Golden Rule folks again. I highly recommend Budget Lodging, which sets the bar very high for other affordable motels. They do a great job and deserve our support.

Comfortable clean room. Friendly staff. Not super cheap, but not expensive. Very reasonably priced. Breakfast was really good and free! The water is really soft, so it feels like you are not rinsing the soap off when you shower, but still a great experience overall. Would gladly stay here again!

Budget Lodging is a nice place. The rooms are clean and quiet, if a little smaller than most newer chain hotels. Thee is a microwave and mini fridge in every room with nice flat screens which are pretty much the norm in hotels now a days. The breakfast is supposed to be good but I’ve not been down there yet. Also they give CDL holders a discount which is nice.
The only reason I’m giving 4 stars is because the wifi sucks. It’s not password protected and I think they don’t have enough bandwidth or something.

Called about midnight desk they had availability which they did and they only charged extra $ 10 for your pet. Floors and Rumar photo would know carpet which is great when you have a pet. Pretty place very misleading by the name budget hotel, makes you think it’s going to be cheap and old. it looks like a up North lodge, very nice and the staff is very nice as well. Private entry door from outside to rooms, looks like a decent safe neighborhood right off the expressway. It’s a places to eat and supply stores if you need those kind of things, and the mobile mart on the corner has beer!

This spot was a welcome experience on our long trip. It surpassed all of the other chain hotels we stayed in previously.
For starters, there’s a cute lobby upon arrival for checkin where, in the afternoon, they have fresh popped popcorn available and they also have coffee and hot chocolate available. I don’t plan to partake in breakfast which is available because I bring my own breakfast on the road; however, I would expect a breakfast a step above other places based on other reviews.
The service was friendly.
Next was the room which was impeccably clean and the bed had a cute quilt bedspread on it which I found charming… there were little thoughtful decorations around the room that made it a comfortable experience standing out from the rest. I hope we pass this way on our way home to stay here again. The price was less expensive than we had spent at other hotels. Nice!

Don’t let the name fool you. Just because it is called «budget» lodging, doesn’t mean that it lacks in quality. By far one of the nicest hotels that I have stayed in!
Every one that works there was very nice and helpful. They went out of their way to make us feel at ease. The rooms were cleaner than any of the «higher end» hotels that I have stayed at. Pet friendly with a fenced in dog run. The continental breakfast was full of options and everything was good! Very impressed and very pleased! Next road trip I take, I will for sure remember this place!

Home away from Home
I was initially hesitant about staying at Budget Lodging even though the reviews had been positive, but I am very glad I took the chance. Upon arriving at the motel we were warmly greeted by Tom, along with a welcoming interior lobby. Tom provided us with an overview of the hotel’s amenities along with recommendations for dinner in the local area.
While the motel was older, the high level of cleanliness and upkeep directly contributed to the positive experience of our stay. The room was decorated to that of a B&B instead of a sterile chain hotel room. The complementary breakfast the next morning provided many choices from biscuits and gravy to cereal and fruit.
Overall I highly recommend Budget Lodging for the quality and overall value.

Fabulous place! Our car was stranded and needed to spend the night with our 4 kids. The place was clean, service was lovely, and the pool was great. Breakfast was decent and included. We left behind our daughter’s swimsuit bottom and they kept it for us until we could pick it up on our way back into town! Thank you for a great stay.

My family of 4 stayed one night and we hope to stay again sometime!
This quaint and comfortable hotel was clean and the staff courteous.
The continental breakfast was small but tasty.
We stayed on a cold winter night. The lobby had a welcoming fireplace and the room was toasty comfy.
We felt this was a great value!

Very reasonably priced hotel. The staff was helpful and nice, and the breakfast was more substantial than the average continental fare. The décor is dated (ok, very dated), but the room was comfortable and clean. I’m giving it five stars because the room, breakfast, staff attitudes, comfortable lobby (with free coffee and hot chocolate) and overall cleanliness of the hotel were well above what we normally see in comparably priced places.

This place is great, maybe in a town I am not fond of, but the staff is friendly, and the room… WOW! My wife and I got to treat ourselves to one of their jucuzzi suits, it was relaxing. The room was huge, clean and beautiful, the bed OMG the bed. You melt into the bed, we did however sleep through breakfast, but it didn’t matter, we loved it.

Went here during the dead of winter and wanted a place not too far into St. Louis. The place hearkening back to the good days of motel travel along 66, a simple clean hotel with very good customer service and great price.
The lobby had a nice roaring fireplace and had an ample selection of hot breakfast items as part of the room that I would have to say does better than some chain places which offer a pay breakfast
