I had just recently stayed at the Rodeway Inn in Fremont, Nebraska, during a business trip, and overall, I had a great experience. The hotel itself was excellent—clean, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, and convenient amenities that made my work trip more enjoyable. The bed was especially comfortable, and the Wi-Fi was reliable, which is always a plus when traveling for work. It’s worth noting that the property is currently undergoing renovations due to damage from recent storms. While some areas were being worked on, it didn’t significantly affect my stay. The staff did a great job keeping everything as quiet as possible, and they were upfront about the situation at check-in, which I appreciated. If you're heading to Fremont for business or even just vacation, I’d definitely recommend this hotel. Once renovations are complete, I imagine it’ll be even better!

For this last stay we had the conjoined suite with the whirlpool tubs in both rooms. These rooms both were very clean, well kept. Beds are definitely a bit on the stiff side, and judging by past experiences at other Rodeway's this is more common than not. Both whirlpool tubs worked just fine and had no issues. Did not interact with the staff other than during check in and out during this stay so I cannot technically rate that at this time. However, during my other stays at this location (which there have been several), there have never been any issues that would create a concern for me as a guest. Overall a great experience and stay.

The beds were comfy, breakfast was really good with a large selection. Shower was clean and worked great. Staff was friendly and very helpful. They have a pool but I didn't use it. There's a diner right next door within walking distance.

Great value!! Clean room, good atmosphere, updated or well maintained. The only issue I could think of is that the carpet was winkled but that would be the only thing I could think of wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Don't let other reviews fool you. This hotel was clean, quiet and affordable. It's being renovated so there is a little hustle and bustle going on. Our room had all new furniture, very comfortable bed, very clean. The front counter was so nice to check in with. Very helpful and polite.

Located right off the interstate. There's a nice diner in front that offers 15% off your bill! The hotel was clean. There was a funky smell in one of the staircases going to the 3rd floor. The room was nice. Bed was comfortable. One of the pillows smelled "scalpy". I don't think it was the pillow case, but the actual pillow. The bathroom was clean, and the water pressure was excellent. (That's definitely important when you drive all day). There's absolutely no breakfast. Not even fruit or a granola bar for the road. There is only coffee. I would recommend staying here as it's a great value.

Very nice ladies working at desk. Fair prices for big rooms. Nice and clean with big bathroom and shower with hot water. TV with lots of channels. Microwave, fridge and a single cup coffee pot with good coffee, hair dryer, iron and table for clothes. Pets up to 20 lbs allowed for 10 bucks and bigger if a service or support animal. Right by plenty of food and truck stop. Car and big truck repair across road . I've read reviews of some bad stuff but I found nothing bad. I'm betting that if your shower is not right or AC not working they would change your room if you simply asked. Everything in my room was very nice. Very cold AC. Had to turn it down.

Very pleasant stay overall. The hotel is clean, fresh, and has no unwanted odors. The room was bright, tidy, and nicely decorated. It included a microwave, TV, mini fridge, air conditioner, iron, and hangers - everything I needed. There's also a large parking lot nearby that fits trucks, which was very convenient.

Had a good stay at Rodeway Inn. Check in was easy and staff was nice. Rooms were nice. Not sure about those half size pillows. They're nice and firm and you get 4 but they're only half the length of normal pillows. Only complaints I have is that the pool is freezing and the free breakfast stops at 9.
