Settle Inn & Suites Harlan

Friendly staff and a general manager that is a motorcycle enthusiast willing to share a little knowledge about the area highways, clean rooms, comfy beds, strong water pressure in the showers, along with a modest breakfast from 6 am - 10 am make this a decent value for a single king size room under $95 including tax. Personally my room was on the second floor down at the south end, you enter near the north end on the east side of the hotel so my walk, if I opted to stay inside and not park at the south end and enter through the south door, was about as far as you can walk within the building. Uncovered, but still they have, motorcycle parking was near the main entrance which is why I chose not to park at the south end. The south end entrance is locked after 11pm too and you can not access even if you have a room key (or at least I didn't see the option to unlock it using mine). So you could actually walk in through the south end and be just fine; however, they do not have an elevator or at least not one that I noticed for guests. The hotel is firm on their policy of no boisterous behavior which made for a very quiet hallway and quiet night. The king room I had was very spacious, I prolly could of had a meeting with 8 people in there and it would not have been crowded. Alos there is a refrigerator in everyroom so you can provide cool beverages. The rooms also have hair dryers, ironing boards, an iron, and a solid channel line up on the tv, The air conditioner cooled my room down to a balmy 66 degrees and with the curtains drawn and the lights off there was no ambient light even after dawn. So on that aspect alone it is worthy of a solid 3.5 stars. The only thing keeping this hotel from receiving 5 stars in my book is that they do not have a restaurant within easy walking distance or an elevator. Food option are limited as it seems this quiet town rolls up the sidewalks after 6pm but it's a nice hotel with a friendly staff offering all the necessary items you need for a good night's rest and relaxation. The pool is indoors and open from 7am until 10pm.

While this hotel is 14 miles off the main interstate, it is a very good choice if you are going to be in a 20-30 minute radius. Very clean, very comfortable, pool, good cereal/pastry/waffle (no eggs, meat) breakfast, hot shower, cold a/c, reliable wi-fi/internet and friendly front desk people. No elevator. Eating places are a little sparse. We were very pleased with our stay; just wish it was closer to the highway and the family we visited.

We checked in at 11:00pm, got our cards and went upstairs. The do not disturb sign was on the door. Weird. Opened it anyway. The TV was on and the bed was lumpy. We quickly shut the door, assuming people were in there and we went downstairs. The front desk lady was very nice and went up to the room with us to see what was going on. Turns out, there were no people in the room but no one had cleaned it from the previous tenants. We left and returned after the room was cleaned. After it was "cleaned" there were yellow stains all over one of the pillows. Disgusting. :(Overall, bare bones hotel. Not worth the money. Recommend staying at the cobblestone in Avoca.

Nice clean room! We arrived late on a Saturday night after a full day of driving from Texas. We were pulling a lamb trailer & the front desk ladies were very accommodating to make sure we could get parked in the parking lot! Funny little short pillows but slept great!!

Moving cross country 2000 miles from the west coast to the east coast with dogs and it was time to come off the road for the night after 8 hours of driving. Looked online and found "Pet friendly" hotels listed but when we got to the hotels, they either were not "Pet friendly" or they had a 20lb max. Well one of our dogs is a 90lb German Shepherd so we were now stressed out, our dogs were hungry and anxious, we had no idea what we were going to do! We stopped on the side of the road to see IF we had any options and a deputy pulled up, asked for driver's license, insurance and wanted to know what we were doing?? We explained our situation and after he ran our information, he told us to go to this hotel. When we arrived, we were met with a friendly and inviting staff!! There was nothing but positive energy and good vibes!! The rooms were clean, and the hotel was so quiet. The awesome staff told us to park in the back under the camera so our SUV can be watched (we had a basket on the back and a 60-inch tv on top). Our continental breakfast was delicious, and we were so happy to have found this hotel. The only complaint is every time we took our dogs out the maid kept asking us if we were leaving so she could come in our room, but it was only 7:00am - 8:30am, it was annoying.
