No-Frills Motel With Easy Check-In
It’s a simple, no-frills motel that shows its age but is kept clean and maintained. Check-in was convenient—I just texted a photo of my driver’s license, received my room number and door code, and found a metal key waiting inside. I appreciated not having to interact with anyone.

Good R&R
Accessibility to restaurants and eateries is a little sketchy, but Marco Polo is very comfortable. Other than road noise, it's fairly quiet. The managers I met were wonderful. I had a good two nights rest. Just what the Dr. ordered.

The staff was particularly accommodating and able to give us good service in answering questions and giving us help based on their knowledge of the area and what our needs were. Our stay was pleasant and we were pleased with the accommodations. If needed, we would definitely consider staying at the Marco Polo again.

Perfect location for us
You would never guess this hotel is on a highway. The room was super quiet, clean and big enough for our stay. Only down side was that it was a little warm in the room and it took many hours to cool it down. Close to the zoo, Fremont and the lake. We would stay again

Worth the price.
As others have mentioned there is road noise. Especially with racing motorcycles. It quiets down substantially after 9 pm. There are good food options a short 3 blocks away. The place is old but it was clean enough and comfortable. The staff was great.
