Great hotel if you’re looking for a super cheap rate. Otherwise the whole place smells like someone chain smoked cigarettes for 20 years. Not the nicest or cleanest property, and seemed a little sketchy. But again, it was a super cheap rate so I didn’t expect much.

Okay, this motel was like, 20 bucks cheaper than any other place to stay in the area, so I it would be dumb to bash the property and its shortcomings. Hotel Blue Top Inn was built in 1956, and it looks like it. I was especially disappointed with the city of Stevens Point-the road on which the motel is located is awful-there are probably better roads in Gaza. Check in was smooth. This is one of those properties that has long-term residents who like it sit outside of their rooms and smoke cigarettes and talk to anyone passing by. As I was opening the door to my room (you drive right up to the door) the gentleman in the room next to mine told me in detail the directions to the spot where he shot a deer in 1979. Nice guy. The room was spacious. It was clean. I wondered if it had ever been updated. I think the pillows were original. The bed wasn't terrible, but not that great, either. The bathroom looked pretty beat up. The towels were small. There were no wastebaskets anywhere in the room. I thought about calling the front desk, but by the time I noticed this it was past 8 o'clock, and I didn't want to bother the nice elderly lady who had checked me in. I'm used to camping, so I just packed whatever trash I made out with me. The TV was the real problem for me. I CAN'T STAND these stupid TV packages that want you to subscribe, or download an app...or buy whatever....and Amazon has their greedy paws in this as well....UGH. . I just wanted to watch the basketball game.

I was afraid to go out after dark. Stayed in room and ate chips and drank water for dinner.

Quick Stay Check in was smooth and staff were welcoming and helpful. Thanks!

Get there before 9pm or get locked out! Booking was easy. However when I arrived there was no one at the door. I could not get in and could not get a room. no where in the booking did it say check in was required before 9pm.

I stayed here when I was doing field work for my research in Wisconsin in 2016. The place was practical and clean, with beds that gave me the good rest I needed. Significantly, the staff really helped me out when I left my backpack with my passport and computer inside. The backpack also contained quite a bit of cash. They really saved me. This was in 2016, and still think fondly of them now in 2022. Thanks!
