We came for one night for a football game. The room was immaculate, the desk staffed at all times, and staff friendly. Breakfast was a bit underwhelming and my dietary needs are different, but at least it was available for my husband. Parking was easy and it was right down the road from where we needed to go.I loved online check-in and check-out.

Advertised as having large vehicle/truck parking, but when we arrived we learded this parking is a nearby cul-de-sac only. The bathroom had mold visible under the peeling wallpaper. Bedroom area was equipped with a full wall of mirrors which made us uncomfortable (2 females). Our room phone rang intermittently throughout the night snd when answered there was only a dial tone. We had to unplug it around 2am so we could sleep. Advertised continental breakfast was limited to toast and cereal type options. The beds were comfortable so this was the highlight to an otherwise unfortunate stay.

Friendly staff & adequate breakfast for a cost effective hotel. Carpet in our room needed shampooing as I noticed my footprints on tub base each time I stepped into wet tub to shower — and not because I was wearing sandals all day. I wore socks & tennis shoes outside the room and took off after returning to room & walking around on the carpet with my bare feet at that time. Otherwise, no complaints.

After staying at this location for two weeks, 95% of the staff was wonderful! We had to leave a $100 deposit at the desk due to paying with cash. I also brought my ESA dog and when I checked in and offered to show legal documentation from my doctor, the employee said he didn’t need to see it. When we checked out, it seemed like the owner (or GM, not sure) tried just about everything to keep our deposit. One of the reasons was because we didn’t pay a pet deposit that is required. I then went on to explain that I had paperwork and offered it at check in….she persisted on as if I had done something wrong when in fact, it was her coworker that didn’t follow any policy. The dog area seemed to be a bit dirtier than it should have been but overall, the staff was pleasant, room was small and I felt safe. The tv could have been a bit bigger but the location was great. On a scale of 1-10, I’d rate the Microtel in Onalaska a 4.

The hotel room we stayed in here was one of the smallest I've ever been in. We could barely walk around the bed. It was pretty expensive for what we got. Also, we were accidentally double charged for the room, though the management did resolve that quickly. The breakfast choices were minimalist. They did have some items to microwave. The whole experience was adequate...nothing special.

It was fine. The room was pretty janky, feeling wallpaper, questionable plumbing fixtures. The bathtub spout didn't work right, and water came out of the shower and the bath smells simultaneously. The bed was nice and clean and soft with nice pillows. But the rest of the room was dirty and in need of maintenance. Staff was robotic and curt. Sufficed as a crash pad, but next time I will opt for a nicer hotel. Would have been fine for 20-year-old me, but 40-year-old me is a little over it.

No one was at front desk when I called down there so asked them when I checked out. He didnt know what happened and said "sorry". The guests above me made a lot of noise the 2nd night and had a barking dog. Otherwise the place was good.

Lower end room. Torn carpet, older fixtures, generally run down in appearance. “Breakfast” was a basket of bananas, juice, hard boiled eggs, cellophane wrapped bagels, yogurt, and cereals in a dispenser. Milk from a gallon jug in the mini fridge. You get what you paid for and just needed somewhere to get a few hours sleep before heading out on the road again. If that’s what you’re looking for this place will do. Otherwise spend a couple more bucks at another place.
