Quality Inn Appleton West

8/10 Good

"We just wanted a clean bed to sleep in after a Packer game and that's what we got. Room was a little dated but the bed was comfortable and the breakfast options were good. We have stayed here a couple times and will do so again for any late day Packer game. Friendly staff."

Super 8 by Wyndham Appleton

8/10 Good

"The Super 8 in Appleton was nice. The hotel is dated, but was very quiet, appeared to be rather clean. The bed was comfortable. The only negative is that initially when we walked into our room it smelled of old cigarette smoke, but that smell dissipated very quickly and was NOT on our clothing when we left the room. The staff was very friendly. We would definitely stay there again."
