Very friendly owners, room is not the ritz but decent and worth the price. Backs right up to Newmar service center and they allowed my dogs so I stay here while getting my motorhome serviced.
An old motel but rooms are good and staff is superb. Outside appears worn and weathered with some holes in siding but recommend staying here.
This is an amazing place to stay. From the room to the service, excellent! Super clean, affordable and easy access to all locations. We are planning to come back and stay longer at the same place, nothing copare!!! Hands off! great
Clean rooms, decent mattress, flat screen tv. No frills, but No bed bugs, good showers, heats enough, AC works, HBO, and that's about it. Budget motel that lives up to the hype, but nothing more. A little pricey for what they are, but not bad since there are very few hotels in the area. I stay here frequently for business and it has always been quiet.
Quit hotel middle of town, little dated but clean. Nice little motel
The rooms are clean and very spacious. It is quite and in a great location close to all the fast food restaurants. I recommend staying here to everyone. The people are amazing
For 80 Bucks a night compared to places 125 a night. This place is better the furniture is older but nice and the beds are very comfortable. Nice bathroom with coffee maker and hair dryer. There is a microwave and mini fridge Desk table couch. Very nice room. If in Nappanee or surrounding area's it's worth staying at the Shamrock .
Best customer service and rooms were very hygienic. Can’t wait to come back

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
