We had tried stopping here about a year ago and discovered that they were closed on Sunday. We…read moreplanned better this year and stopped on a weekday. The Buffalo Bill Cultural Center is just 10-15 minutes off I-70 at the Oakley exit. The center has a ton of travel literature and brochures. The lady who greeted us was very personable and quite helpful with information and directions to Monument Rocks and New Jersulem State Park The cultural center is located adjacent to the Buffalo Bill Sculpture which is a very large sculpture of Buffalo Bill and a Buffalo. The sculpture alone is worth the short detour.

It has lots of little things to look at and the obligatory wall of magazines and pamphlets of other attractions and maps. The person that was working and was very sweet and nice. She was working in her office so I was finished getting my postcards and pen and magnet. She said I could just let her know when I was ready and she came out and I paid about $20 for all that. It's a good little informative center. If you need about 20 minutes to stretch your legs, I recommend stopping by.

I like to give credit due where it is due . This is a nice old school old fashioned Motel that you…read moredon't run across every day. It looks from the outside a little outdated, but when you come inside the rooms it's a whole different story. Very sizable and clean rooms very well decorated, clean comfortable beds frigerator microwave coffee maker and an excellent Wi-Fi and cable system. I have stayed really expensive motels aren't as nice as this has got a nice little homey warm feel to it that you don't see everyday. Beds are very comfortable. The owners are very nice people good loving warm Christian people that go out of their way to treat people good and help people. If you folks travel on east and west on I-70 going to the town of Oakley Kansas, you should definitely make this your designated stop. Very peaceful and quiet, and totally affordable for The budget-minded traveler. Full service truck stop just a 200 yards up the road Thumbs up to another little Hidden Gem of a motel that is totally American owned and operated. Let's support our mom and pop businesses and motels, is that the American thing to do. Thumbs up to this decent little place please pay at homage and give it all the business it can get.

There are nicer hotels along I-70. There may even be a few cheaper hotels, as well. But none are as…read morememorable as the Free Breakfast Inn. It's the classic "off-ramp inn", with a dirt parking lot, older buildings, a old lady and her dog as your hosts, entrance pillars re-located from Denver's old Villa Italia Mall, plus a giant stuffed animal in your room. Not to mention the vintage 70's furniture, rug and paneling. In short, if you stay here I can almost guarantee you'll be telling friends about it. Whether those stories are good or bad are up to you (mine are "good"). You need to be in a jovial, adventurous mood before checking in. As a cool bonus, the Free Breakfast Inn gives you...well, a Free Breakfast. Across the highway at the Colonial Inn, your voucher entitles you to two pancakes, two eggs and coffee (basically, meat's extra). The Colonial Inn is another classic off-ramp institution (they even had those old IQ tester peg games at their tables!). Heck, both of these establishments are located at the same exit as the infamous "World's Largest Prairie Dog". That should tell you all you need to know! I stayed here my first night away from Denver on a road trip to St. Louis. The other nights I ended up at chain hotels-- all were equally forgettable. But on my way back to Denver, I passed the Oakley exit of the Free Breakfast Inn...and felt like tooting my horn to say "thanks".

Like the fact that we can park in front of our door. Room seemed fairly clean. They had YouTube TV, which was fun. Beds were clean and comfortable. Asked for more pillows since theirs were pretty flat, but they didn't have any that were clean so I ended up sleeping on a backpack. Bad parts don't sit on the couch. It was filthy totally covered in stains as seen by the pictures that I will be posted. Also when we went to take our showers in the morning, they were totally out of hot water, which after a day on the road, we were kind of looking forward to taking a shower, but had to settle with washcloths. Breakfast biscuits and gravy were good as well as the Egg scramble. Stay away from the hard boiled eggs. I don't know what was up with those but the whites were total mush, and it was pretty gross.
