Deer that wandered out of the hotel campus, across the parking lot, then into the grass next to the interstate on-ramp.

Inexpensive place to rest. Not threadbare, but it seems to have a low level of maintenance attention. Initial room had difficulty with pass card, and the solution was a different room. Room had a hot water shower valve that had to be set in just the right position to get a minimal hot water flow, which then blended with the cold water to get a very warm shower. Room had a smell of water leakage. Many dead insects in the outer halls. Had an encounter with a deer in the parking lot-that was different. Lots of active looking younger people. Some seedy-looking porch smokers with an air of paranoia and jitters. At the very end of a shared driveway nearest the interstate. It seemed some of the rooms were not available to lodge.

Sunrise? More like Sunset - puns aside this is hotel has seen better days (sign out front in need of repair, attached restaurant vacant, only a few working lights outside the office or rooms). Wife and I attempted to check in - the only person in the lobby was a friendly but homeless-looking gentleman who informed us (and the next prospective customer) that the attendant had "ran off." Calls to a "for assistance" number posted at the desk and to management went unanswered. We waited half an hour (while booking another hotel) but no sign of staff. Consider sleeping in your car as an alternative to Sunrise...

This was the worst experience of my life. I have PTSD from it . I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy. No heat, no hot water and no secure door between adjacent room.

This place is awful. We heard it is being remodeled and it can't come too soon. The furniture is crummy, the mattress gave me a backache, everything is stained and shabby. We tried to get our money refunded so we could go to a nicer, newer and cheaper place. They wouldn't do it, I imagine that the few people that stayed there got gypped into it like we did. I suppose that someone has to pay their night staff's wages. Don't go there! It's terrible. No WiFi, no pool, tiny TVs and they wanted to charge for clean towels on the second day. I would give it zero stars but that is not possible.

Would give this place 0 stars if I could. Rooms smell, dirty bedsheets and blanket. Dirty bathrooms, unsanitary. No microwave or fridge. Not worth staying here even if it was free.

Few things wrong here. First off, the location on the map takes you to a mall 10 minutes up the road. The hotel is actually located next to Waffle House and Denny's right off the highway. Please don't misunderstand this clarification, I am not trying to help you get here. In fact, go literally anywhere else. I hear North Korea is lovely this time of year. After booking a reservation, we got to the lobby and were informed the room with two beds we booked was not available but we were gonna get "the best single bed" available. We accepted this unfortunate turn and walked in. The acid trip carpet was only outdone by the strong scent of piss and the table that was two inches lower on one side than the other. Now, I'm a creative individual but I promise I couldn't make this stuff up. We stayed for about five minutes before deciding we would rather eat razor wire than stay there another minute. Returning to the lobby, we were told that while we had only been there five minutes and the refund policy states we have twenty minutes from check in to get a refund, we were told we had to go through Priceline (who we didn't book thru) to get a refund. The guy at the desk was a silver lining through all this, he was a nice guy and tried really hard to help. He called his manager (whom I assume is named Captain Fartfacè) and informed him of the situation. He proceeded to live up to his namesake and hung up on his employee. Captain Fartfacè proceeded to be of no help. I assume he had another customer to screw over somewhere else. Front Desk Bro literally offered to pay us from his own pocket to make up for his dick hole manager. We politely declined, as Front Desk Bro is scraping by to feed his child under the tyrannical rule of Captain Dickhole Fartfacè. While attempting to rectify the mishap with Captain Dickhole Fartfacè, another weary traveler (read: meth head) entered the dark lord's lair. He asked to book a room, and Front Desk Bro was forced to awkwardly inform him he was no longer welcome to book the shittiest hotel in Joplin as the last time he had graced the establishment with his presence, he stole all the lightbulbs and the telephone and, according the his file, "left period blood on the bedsheets". Savage af. At least we know they have standards. They just happen to be lower than a mythical child between a Kardashian and a Trump. A Kardump, if you will. We ended up leaving without our money but with all the documents needed to prove in court that we were being screwed. We intend to take action to receive our refund. If you feel this is petty or unnecessary, please swallow cyanide. I look forward to hearing back from management so we can turn this frown upside down.

Would give negative stars if I could. I stayed there for an hour. In that hour my car door was opened by a clearly overdosed individual who tried to start a fight with me. I went back to the lobby and asked for a different room or a refund and they moved me to the back. The whole back side was vacant, except for a creepy individual who kept circling our car parked outside the door. We were scared shitless and asked for a refund because there was no way we were spending the night, where the next day the manager over the phone said he did not believe our story and we were not getting a refund.

This place is a joke. We stayed four nights, couldn't find any rooms available in the previous 7 places we tried. The conditions of the room were bad. But room service was horrible, they took all our towels, and said they had to refill their cart and would return that afternoon to give us our towels back, we waited til about 8 pm and finally went to the office to get them where we were told they were "out of towels". NEVER EVER stay here..

They wouldn't even let us cancel our reservations a week ahead. Based on these reviews the place is below par. We don't want to stay there. It's not even the cheapest place. This is what happens when you let your boyfriend pick a place.

Rather than Sunrise Inn, I would call this "Hellrise Inn." When we first came, it gave off a creepy vibe already. In an attempt to open our door, it did not budge until we forced it open. As we walked in, you could instantly smell cigarettes. The colors were horrendous. It was like some 1970's vintage room. The chairs looked dirty and dusty. DO NOT OPEN THE FRIDGE! It wreaked of rotten decay. I was too scared to even open any of the cabinets and microwave. When we lifted the blankets, there were cigarette holes in them. The bathroom was tiny, rusty, and dirty. The bathtub floor was black. The shower was hot, but then quickly got cold. The sink was rusty and once you turn on the faucet, it squirted everywhere. In addition to that, there was a cricket on our room. Kids started screaming. The room was super cold at times, and then super hot. The location was horrible. due to it being close the highway. So noisy! Overall, it was a nightmare. My child had a mental breakdown from the horrendous conditions. They overpriced our stay for such a crappy place. The walls and ceilings were paper thin you could hear every step, noise, and even when they took a shower or flushed the toilet. Finally, my daughter decided to take a #2 in the morning on our last day. When she was about to flush, nothing happened. And so, she left it there. This was our gift to them, I guess. Worst. Place. Ever.
