i travel through Kearney at least 4 times a year going from Colorado to Michigan and back. This was my first time staying at the Microtel in Kearney. What a lovely experience. Despite being in the middle of a renovation, the facility was clean and definitely upgraded. From the time I checked in until I left my key at the desk checking out, the staff members were friendly, courteous, and made me feel like I was a family member coming home for a visit. Superb! The room was very nicely decorated, clean, and everything appeared new. My only complaint, and it is really a personal thing, I wasn't real happy with the placement of the bath towels on the little shelf beneath the sink. It wasn't convenient to get to before or after taking a shower. There were a couple of hooks to hang them on close to the bathtub but again, lots of water dripping off you when you reached out to get one. Other than that, I loved my stay and will definitely recommend this place to family and friends and will return in the future. Thank you for a good night's rest.
