Simmer Motel

Nice place for the price! Clean, kitchenette. "Single" room that I stayed in is essentially a nice little studio apartment w/out a stove. Fridge, microwave, front room with couch and table and chairs and separate bedroom. No longer have a swimming pool, so they need to take that down from their website. But very reasonable, clean place. No bells and whistles, but plenty of space and basic conveniences.

Price and location

Actually we live next to the motel, and are acquainted with the new owner. The place has been bought by the Wamego Inn across the highway, and they will keep the Simmer name but have consolidated operations. Check in is now done as the Wamego Inn. Also, they've done a complete remodel of the nightly rooms. The oldest building, as shown in the page illustration, is changing to longer term rentals.

Property was purchased by another hotel in the area. We had to go to that hotel to check in. Our room at the Simmer motel did not have a smoke detector, carpet, flooring & furniture was stained, dirty & dingy. Definitely would not recommend this property.

For the price I paid, I expected the basic run of the mill hotel, the outside of the hotel is plain, and something you would find on the side of the road for a quick break, need to rest situation. We were BLOWN away when we got in to our room, it was comfortable, clean, welcoming. I am not kidding.....We felt so relaxed in the room it was unbelievable. No noise, No problems, no nothing, It was the PERFECT get away to just relax. There were even pictures on the wall and decorations! Ive never stayed in a place that was so welcoming. The hotel is near a Dollar General, and a GREAT Mexican resturant that will serve to go margaritas and they are STRONG! no joke.....do not stay anywhere else but here if you are in the area.......Check in was easy, communication was superb. What a great place. We will be making this a once a month thing at this hotel because it is that great!

I ordered a room with a jet hot tub from the web site .Yes I paid extra for the room .I was informed by the office that none of the rooms had jet tubs,they was in the middle of a remodel. I asked questions around the extra charge for a room with the jet tub . No response. I suggested they update the online site andI was dismissed back to the remodeling situation. They never offered to refund any part of my payment and or update the advertisement. A extra blanket in the room would be nice it is Nov . I enjoyed the room overall. They have two different parts of the hotel . I was across the road . Not sure if they had a breakfast or not.
