I love the Owner Wilma, she is so friendly and the rooms are always clean.
My friend lives here, I don't have experience living here, but the rooms are nice sized and it seems quiet other than m37
Been coming to Johnny's for about 15 years always clean and inexpensive......by NO means a high class place but it's a good little place to lay your head while your in the White Cloud area.......
Old but nice. Friendly owners and housekeeper. Wish still had a pool table. No wifi but only 4 blocks from downtown and subway. Very clean. No bugs. Free coffee in room.
This is for Nicolette Diaz: I'm sorry for the disappointments or whatever happened to you. I know that you know that all of what you've written here are not true and you know who is full of poop here. I work hard to keep this motel clean and comfortable for our guest, even our weekly rooms no matter how dirty the guests leave the room I always make sure it's clean for the next guest. Our rooms even if it's only for 34.95 for a small room with a full size bed, there's a small refrigerator in the room, microwave, coffee maker with no mess filter pouch coffee & condiments, free wifi, AC/Heat and a satellite tv. Our towels are white: 2 sets of bath towels, hand towels, face towels and 1 foot towel. Our bed sheets are white too and I really make sure everything in the room is clean because just like you we also travel and I don't want to stay in a dirty place. You probably notice I said I make sure it's clean; take note the word "I" that's right I myself clean the room to make sure the rooms are clean for our guest because I don't trust and I didn't find anybody yet that I can trust to clean the room. Oh! by the way, we don't allow pets in the room. Next time make sure to do the right thing and learn to face the consequences of your wrongdoing, don't blame the establishment. Good luck to you.
Nice room n great price. Staying again next year's Blessing of the Bikes
