I like to give credit due where it is due . This is a nice old school old fashioned Motel that you don'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 It looks from the outside a little outdated, but when you come inside the rooms it's a whole different story.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. read more

There are nicer hotels along I-70. There may even be a few cheaper hotels, as well. But none are as memorable 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". read more

Free Breakfast Inn Motel - Hotels Near Me - Oakley, Kansas

Found this quirky little place on yelp. It is definitely like staying at your grandmas house. Has mis matched furniture and sheets. 70's decor and a purple light in the bathroom. The place was clean and passed my bed bug check which some nicer establishments don't. The owners were very nice which gets extra points from me. They give you a coupon for a free breakfast at the colonial steakhouse across the street. The breakfast is eggs and pancakes. You can buy meat for a little extra. The restaurant was great. Food was good and service was very friendly. Overall I would stay here again. Great price and breakfast. If you are looking for an establishment like a Hilton this place is not for you but if you just need a clean, quick place to stay then here you go. I will definitely remember this place! read more

Jeffrey was so delightful and made me feel right at home. I feel safe and the room is very clean. This is my second time staying w Free Breakfast Inn and it won't be my last. Thanks for the hospitality!! read more

I made a reservation for this motel (it's definitely not a hotel) as I was driving across the country. I showed up on the planned date around 9:30 pm after driving for 12 hours that day. I was taken back by how creepy the place looked on the outside, considering the 3 star status on priceline.com. I rang the doorbell outside of the office, and an old woman came to the door. She didn't let me into the office, even when I told her I had a reservation. She replied, "I'm sorry, we're full", and then shut the door, turned out the lights and walked away. I was flabbergasted because I though having a reservation meant they had reserved a room for you. Thankfully, I was able to find another hotel in Oakley, and I was informed that Free Breakfast had just had an electrical fire the week before due to a rodent infestation. I will always remember not to stay at this place because reservations don't matter here. read more

While driving from San Francisco to Boston in 2004, we stopped at the Free Breakfast Inn. Naturally, we were drawn in by the idea of the free breakfast. When we checked in around 11 PM, a creepy little old woman appeared at the front desk. The entire lobby was plastered with Jesus stuff. There was a dog who lived there named J.C. (Short for Jesus Christ?) The lady had bloodshot eyes. She was accommodating, though. I was afraid she was going to deny us a room due to the fact that we were unmarried. We went across the street to retrieve our free breakfast at a steakhouse. The waitress there seemed to know everyone who came in, and she was as friendly as could be...until she turned to us. She was rude and charged me extra for my orange juice. Maybe she didn't like the looks of us...me with piercings and my future-husband with long hair and a beard. Silly hippies. I wasn't impressed with the free breakfast, but the motel itself was clean and comfortable, albeit dated and incredibly creepy. I'd go back there again if I were a filmmaker looking to film a horror movie at a motel. read more

A very small, slightly quirky, but overall homey place to catch a night of sleep. For the price and the non-generic breakfast the next morning (room comes with a free voucher for each person staying there, and the breakfast has eggs, choice of breakfast-y starch, and coffee), it was hard to beat. Would give 3.5 if Yelp allowed for halves. Things to note: One of the outlets in our room couldn't support charging both the laptop and the tablet at the same time. Our room had two beds, but they forgot to finish one? as the sheets and pillowcases were in a heap on the naked second bed. Since it was the one in front of the TV we just threw the stuff on and went to sleep. I'm not fussy. Owner has several large, wrinkly, friendly dogs. Sweet and well-behaved, but they were let out to wander the premises loose both late night we got in and in the morning when we were packing up, so people who may not like big dogs may want to be aware of this. (I got in some much-missed four-legger time. :D) Pros: Pet-friendly lodging! We didn't have pets with us this time but nice to know for future trips. Best sleep on our cross-country trip so far, SUPER quiet area. The room decor sort of reminded us of staying at an aunt or uncle's house for a bit, wood paneling on the walls and wallpaper in the bathroom. Definitely get what you pay for here, so while it's got some quirks I would stay again. read more

Quirky, family owned and operated inn. We got in super late and we're created by friendly staff who were thoughtful and explained everything for us. Rooms were clean, super comfortable beds. Unique decor - purple satin curtains that could've been prom dresses from the 80's - loved it! I forgot my pillow and they happily mailed it to me. Breakfast is a good deal nearby. Fair deal for the price. read more

This hotel was lovely. Everything was super clean. The room was spacious and well decorated. The mini fridge was well stocked. The towels were clean and fluffy. The beds were soft and clean. I recommend this hotel to everyone especially those traveling alone. I strongly recommend room 14 it has its own special charm and is certainly memorable. The "free" breakfast was hot, fresh and delicious. This would be a lovely honeymoon site. read more

We were a little taken back when we saw the place but decided to stay there anyway. We encountered one little bug before we went to bed and didn't pay to much attention to it. The next morning we were shocked to find blood spots all over our pillows from what we determined to be bed bugs. We actually only saw 4 of the little devils but can imagine the head board must of been covered with them. We were so creeped out we left without the free breakfast. We called the owner when we got down the road and she never offered a refund or anything to help with the costs. We would never recommend this to anybody and we will never exit there again. read more

Free Breakfast Inn Motel - WTF?! Didn't check my bed well last night, tired. Found a stranger's bloody bandage in the bed when I woke up! Do not stay!! :( - Hotels Near Me - Oakley, Kansas

Its a very beautifull Motel. A must stay place. We stayed in several 3-4 star hotels but the ambience of this Motel is far better than those. I just loved the beautiful decoration in the rooms. Nice and clean. We checked in very late so the staff allowed us to check out a bit later without any problem. The hotel is a family owned business and definitely u will feel like a family staying there. Highly recommend it...and pls dont forget the super tasty free breakfast which comes along..i love the place... read more

Called to make a reservation on Tuesday of the week I was driving across the country and told them I would be arriving late; they said no problem and took my credit card information. When I arrived at 2 am, all I wanted was to climb into bed and go to sleep and they told me that they had no record of my reservation and were full for the night so at 2 am I had to call all over the local area to see if there were any vacancies. I finally found one 45 minutes later and no thanks to this place. read more

Exactly what you would expect from this place but the people running it are the icing on the cake. Let me pay cash without DL. Let me bring my rottweiler, no problem. Fridge in room along with a great picture of a tiger. read more

This is a nice place to stop by when you're driving through Kansas. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, hot shower, and cable tv. Everything you need and at a great price. But the real reason to pick this place over a chain motel is the free breakfast. Yes you can get a free breakfast at most chain motels, but they don't come close to rivaling the breakfast offered by the Free Breakfast Inn Motel. When you check in you receive breakfast vouchers for the Continental Steakhouse across the highway from the hotel. To sit down at a real table, eat a hot meal from a ceramic plate, with real silverware, be served by a charming waitress, and have the food be delicious,is a dream after a long drive. Perfectly cooked eggs, fluffy biscuits and pancakes, and the coffee wasn't bad either. You won't envy the hotel goers who paid twice the price for a soggy waffle on a paper plate. To top it off the inn keepers were very nice, they knew me by name and were friendly and helpful. They were also very flexible with the check in and check out times. Yes the rooms are dated (which I found charming), the building next door is a bit dilapidated, and the cable TV doesn't have a thousand channels (though there's everything you would want to watch), but the service, the people, and the price more than make up for it. Plus you know your money is going to real people, not some nameless corporation. I really liked it. read more

This place is horrible. We were driving across the country and had a reservation here through a trade association and that had been confirmed by hotel, and paid for. When we got there, the guy at the desk (Jeffery, I think) came out after we had been waiting for about 5 minutes. He was wearing a T-Shirt with a large stain on it and was not friendly. He told us that they no longer accepted payment through the trade association, when they had already booked it for us. He said he would give us a room at the regular cost. The minute we spoke up to try to figure out the situation and reiterate that we had already paid for the rooms, he started raising his voice and arguing with us and then told us he would not sell us a room if we were going to act like that. He called my boyfriend a thug and told us to leave (just so you can picture my boyfriend, he is a sweet, blonde haired, rosy cheeked, cowboy boot and pearl snap shirt wearing guy lol-but it doesn't even matter). Completely rude, unfair and unprofessional. Did not even attempt to listen to us or try to fix the situation. It was about 11:00 at night, and we had specifically driven to this hotel because it had already been booked and paid for. I had all the documentation to prove it too, but he wouldn't even look at the confirmation payment numbers or anything I had in my nicely organized folder. And we drove about an hour out of the way to find this hotel because the GPS wouldn't take us there and there are two exits for Oakley. Besides the experience, the hotel is creepy, rundown and I'm pretty sure the breakfast isn't actually free from what I've heard, but who knows on that, since ya know, I wasn't able to stay there. This was a year ago and I still find it appalling. This is my first bad review I've written for anything, ever. Terrible experience. Do not go here! read more
