Terrible shower head is what is keeping the score lower.

We needed a hotel close to Children’s Nebraska that could truly support us and provide real ADA accessibility — and this place went above and beyond.
I realized in the parking lot that I had forgotten to request a wheelchair-accessible room, and that familiar panic set in, one medically-complex families understand. Before I could even ask to switch at check-in, the staff had already switched us into an ADA-compliant accessible room when they noticed the need. No explanations. No stress. Just handled.
At the pool, the accessible pool lift wasn’t working at first — a moment that can feel incredibly discouraging for wheelchair users. The front desk responded immediately. They contacted the appropriate staff, brought a charged battery, ensured the lift was fully operational, and even monitored it while we swam so it would safely bring us back up.
I can't tell you how many hotels we've been to that have a pool lift that isn't working and staff were just like, "sorry, it's out of order." This hotels level of accessibility support and awareness is rare!
Customer service was truly exceptional. The front desk staff member was Whitney, and her care felt genuine, not just "here for the job."
As a familiy navigating medical complexities and having mobility needs, we’ve learned that many hotels claim accessibility without actually delivering it. This is exactly why we choose to stay at this hotel. We felt seen, respected, and supported — not like an inconvenience.
Plus, four pillows per bed (AMAZING) and free water for club members 😉 Small things matter when everything else is heavy.
If you’re a medically complex family, wheelchair user, or need reliable ADA-accessible lodging near Children’s Nebraska, this hotel truly shows up.
Plus when staff learned why we were staying, they gave us a discount which was much appreciated given it's Christmas and money is tight.
Highly recommend.
(I very rarely leave reviews but this place deserves it!)

Got to the hotel and was greeted at the front desk and asked what I was here for. Told her I was here to stay with my mom while she was at Methodist hospital. She added a hospital discount that I was not expecting. Very nice.

Room was very nice. It was somewhat small but perfect for a stop if your going across country. Breakfast was free with somewhat little options. Amazing staff.
