Hays, KS Getaway: Unbeatable Sleep Inn I-70 Deals!

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the swirling vortex of… Hays, Kansas! Yeah, I know, it doesn’t exactly scream “paradise,” but listen, I just got back from a stay at the Sleep Inn I-70 in Hays, and let me tell you, it was… something. Let's unravel this chaotic mess, one amenity at a time. And, trust me, I’m not holding back.

Accessibility – Navigating the Maze (and Maybe Tripping Over a Curb)

Okay, so accessibility gets a solid… thumbs up, with a slight wobble. The "facilities for disabled guests" are listed, which is a good start. And, let's be honest, in Hays, you're probably not scaling any mountains. I did see an elevator (yay!), so that’s crucial. I didn’t personally need to test the wheelchair accessibility but the info says it’s there, and hey, fingers crossed it's actually functional and not just a fancy decoration. It's always a gamble, isn't it? I'll give it a 7/10 - could use some signage upgrades for those visual impairments.

Cleanliness and Safety – Germaphobe Approved (Mostly)

Alright, this is where the Sleep Inn shines. They're practically throwing anti-viral cleaning products at everything. "Daily disinfection in common areas," "Rooms sanitized between stays," "Professional-grade sanitizing services." It was like entering a sterile bubble. I felt safer there than I did at my own house, honestly. They even had "hand sanitizer" everywhere. I swear, I went through like 10 bottles. The info mentions "individually-wrapped food options," which, in this day and age, earns serious points. "Hygiene certification"? Check. "Staff trained in safety protocol"? Let's hope so! I mean, there was so much cleaning going on I wouldn't be surprised if they started disinfecting the air. 9/10 - Peace of mind is priceless, and they offer a near-perfect safety assurance.

Dining, Drinking, and Snacking – Not Exactly a Culinary Adventure

Okay, let’s be frank: Hays, Kansas, isn't exactly a foodie mecca. The Sleep Inn offers a breakfast service, which, according to the information, is "breakfast [buffet]." Now, I have a confession: I’m a breakfast snob. I expect fluffy pancakes, perfectly cooked bacon, and gourmet coffee. What I got was… well, let's just say it wasn't Michelin-star material. It was… adequate. Think pre-packaged pastries and questionable coffee that tasted suspiciously like burnt dirt. The information also listed "coffee/tea in restaurant" and a "snack bar." The restaurant turned out to be a sad little nook. The snack bar was… also sad. I was craving a proper sandwich from the convenience store - a real "meal-on-the-go" type of moment. Don't get me wrong, it filled the void, but it wasn't a memorable dining experience. The options are limited. I’d bring snacks. 5/10 - It’s food. It’s there. Don’t expect miracles.

Services and Conveniences – Your Basic Comforts (and the Inevitable Missing Iron)

They have most of the basics: "Air conditioning in public area," "Daily housekeeping," "Elevator" (again, thank goodness!), "Laundry service," blah, blah, blah. The information mentions "food delivery," which is nice if you can find anything worth ordering (see: Dining). “Contactless check-in/out” is a huge plus, especially if you’re like me and generally don’t like face-to-face human interaction. I'd have enjoyed the option of "Ironing facilities" in my room, as the info says, because I did have a shirt to "iron." Turns out, the ironing board was broken. Sigh. Still, it’s all pretty standard fare for a hotel in this price range. 7/10 - They try, and they mostly succeed. Just don’t expect too much pampering.

For the Kids – Unless They're Grown-Up Kids Too

No real info for the kids in the hotel. It does have "Family/child friendly" listed, so you could bring the youngsters, but… what are they going to do? Build forts out of the blackout curtains? 3/10 - Unless kids are fans of just… existing, this is not an exciting hotel.

Available in all Rooms – The Comforts of Home Away From Home (or Close Enough)

Here's where things get interesting. "Air conditioning?" Check. "Alarm clock?" Probably. "Coffee/tea maker?" Bless their hearts, yes. "Free Wi-Fi?" Hallelujah! "Refrigerator?" Yup. "Soundproofing?" Well, mostly. I could still hear the guy in the next room snorting at 3 AM (seriously, dude, invest in some nasal strips). "Wi-Fi [free]?" Yes! Oh, and, the "window that opens" thing? This is a BIG deal. Sometimes, you just need a breath of fresh, non-recycled hotel air, and the Sleep Inn delivered. 8/10 - The basics are covered, plus a few little extras make it better.

Getting Around – Roads, Planes, and… Well, That's About It.

Okay, so the information mentions "Airport transfer," which is handy because, well, the airport is probably the main reason someone's in Hays. "Car park [free of charge]" – score! "Taxi service" is available, too. That's convenient. But honestly, if you're in Hays, you're probably driving. There isn’t much else to do. 7/10 - Easy to get to, easy to park.

Things to Do, Ways to Relax – Limited, But Hey, It's Hays

This is where we get a little… thin. The information mentions "Fitness center." Great! Exercise is good. But I've seen bigger gyms in my bathroom. "Sauna," "Spa/sauna," "Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor]"… This is a nice bonus! They were all perfectly fine, if a little underwhelming, but hey, it’s a pool! It’s a sauna! And that’s pretty much it. Don’t go expecting a luxurious resort experience. 5/10 - Come prepared to entertain yourself. Or just sleep. That's what I did.

Okay, buckle up, buttercup. This isn't your grandma's sterile, bullet-pointed itinerary. This is a chaotic, caffeine-fueled adventure log, ripped straight from the soul (and probably a few questionable gas station snacks) of a weary traveler. Sleep Inn & Suites Hays, KS, here we come!

Day 1: The Great Plains and the Battle for Wi-Fi

  • Time: 6:00 AM - The Alarm (aka the Harbinger of Doom)

    • Location: My Apartment (Chicago)
    • Activity: Groaning. Resisting the siren song of my down comforter. Swearing. Packing a suitcase, realizing I’d forgotten the essential: snacks. Panic ensues. Grabbed the stale granola bars, but hopefully there is better stuff at the hotel.
    • Emotion: A potent blend of dread and excitement. Mostly dread.
  • Time: 9:30 AM - O’Hare to Kansas, I’m Ready!

    • Location: O’Hare Airport
    • Activity: The usual airport circus. Mad dash through security (shoes off, dignity mostly intact). Scrounging for overpriced coffee. Wondering how many people are wearing Crocs today. (Spoiler alert: too many.) The flight was bumpy, a baby screamed the entire time, and I was convinced we were going down.
    • Observation: The guy next to me was wearing a t-shirt that said, "I'm with stupid" and was reading a book about quantum physics. Irony, I guess.
  • Time: 12:30 PM - The Endless Highway

    • Location: Rental Car, somewhere on I-70.
    • Activity: Driving. Endless driving. The Kansas landscape is…well, it’s vast. And flat. And brown. I’ve seen tumbleweeds! I started singing along to the radio and quickly got lost in my thoughts.
    • Anecdote: I swear, at one point, a hawk gave me the side-eye. Maybe I was hallucinating from the endless stretches of asphalt. Or maybe it's just the Kansas sun. Gotta stay hydrated.
  • Time: 4:00 PM - Sleep Inn & Suites Hays: Arrival and Wi-Fi Warfare

    • Location: Sleep Inn & Suites Hays. (Yes, the one. Our temporary home.)
    • Activity: Check-in (smooth, thankfully, the front desk guy was friendly, even though I looked like I'd endured a zombie apocalypse). Unpack. The room… it's functional. Clean-ish. The carpet has seen things.
      • The Wi-fi: Okay, this is a problem. I need Wi-Fi. Like, oxygen-level need. The connection is weaker than my will to resist the vending machine. Trying to connect, failing, trying again… this could be a thing. I can feel the existential dread creeping in. I’m considering calling IT, but then I remember I’m also supposed to be “relaxing."
    • Emotional Reaction: Relief (yay, a bed!), followed by a gnawing anxiety about the Wi-Fi situation. This is a test of my limits. Also, I am suddenly, intensely, craving a Diet Coke. And pizza.
  • Time: 7:00 PM - Dinner and the Pursuit of Happiness (and maybe a decent pizza)

    • Location: Somewhere in Hays. (Probably a local eatery, as much as I could find about local eatery)
    • Activity: I'm starving. Searching Yelp, reading reviews (hoping for truth). Hoping for pizza that rivals a Chicago slice… probably a lost cause. Wish me luck.
    • Quirky Observation: The friendly people of Kansas are going to be a welcome change.
    • Rambles: Okay, so I’m supposed to be experiencing “the heartland." But, I am mostly afraid of the dark. The night sky here is supposedly incredible, but right now, I just need some pizza. And maybe some Wi-Fi.

Day 2: Kansas Charm and the Battle Against Boredom

  • Time: 8:00 AM - Breakfast (Continental Conundrum)

    • Location: Sleep Inn & Suites Breakfast Bar
    • Activity: The usual suspects: stale muffins, questionable coffee, and the faint aroma of artificial fruit. At least there's a waffle maker. A waffle! Is this a sign from the universe?
    • Emotion: Mild disappointment, mixed with a sliver of hope. I'm a sucker for a waffle. Especially if there's syrup.
  • Time: 9:00 AM - Exploring Hays (The Plan)

    • Location: Downtown Hays, or wherever takes my fancy.
    • Activity: This is where the "cultural exploration" starts. I'm planning on visiting the Fort Hays State Historic Site. Should be interesting. I'm also going to wander around town. Window shop. Pretend to be a local. Maybe buy a cowboy hat, just for the hell of it. (Don’t tell anyone.)
    • Messy Structure: I might get hopelessly lost. I have been known to be directionally challenged. The city has a strange layout, and I may need to find help, or the hotel, after a couple of strolls.
  • Time: 12:00 PM - Lunch (The Quest for a Culinary Gem)

    • Location: Still Hays.
    • Activity: Finding somewhere with actual good food, not another chain restaurant. This may be a challenge. I am hoping for something unique, something with character. I'm open to suggestions (local dives only, please!).
    • Stronger Emotional Reactions: I am slightly worried about getting food poisoning. But also, excited about the possibility of a hidden gem. Or, at least, something edible.
  • Time: 2:00 PM - The Wild West (and the Wild West)

    • Location: Fort Hays State Historic Site
    • Activity: Learning about the fort, the soldiers, the history. Pretending I'm a frontierswoman (maybe. Probably not.) Taking way too many pictures.
    • Doubling Down on Experience: Okay, the fort was unexpectedly captivating. The stories, the artifacts… it was genuinely fascinating. I got completely lost in the history. I even started to understand frontier life. Wow, I would have been screwed back then. The heat, the isolation… no Wi-Fi!
  • Time: 4:00 PM - Relaxation and the Wi-Fi Saga (continued)

    • Location: Back at the Sleep Inn.
    • Activity: Trying to relax. Trying NOT to think about the Wi-Fi. Maybe reading a book. Or just staring at the ceiling. Whatever calms the nerves. I might just sit at the desk and try again.
    • The Wi-Fi: A New Day The Wi-Fi continues to be an issue. I feel like the Wi-Fi here is a metaphor for life: hard and often unforgiving. This is getting ridiculous!
    • Emotional Reaction: Resigned acceptance, mixed with a simmering rage. I'm trying to find zen, but it's hard when my connection is slower.
  • Time: 7:00 PM -Dinner and a late-night stroll.

    • Location: The same place as before, I hope.
    • Activity: This could be a simple meal, or a late night adventure. Maybe I’ll find a night market.
    • Anecdote: I’m feeling the desire to be a ghost, and maybe wander the deserted streets. This is probably due to the Wi-Fi though.

Day 3: Departure and the lingering question of Wi-Fi

  • Time: 8:00 AM - Breakfast (waffle time again.)

    • Location: Sleep Inn.
    • Activity: Waffle.
    • Quirky Observation: No matter how bad the hotel, they always have the waffles.
  • Time: 9:00 AM - Packing & Depart!

    • Location: Leaving the Sleep Inn for the airport.
    • Activity: Packing and reflecting on the wild and sometimes Wi-Fi-less adventure.
    • Emotional Reaction: Sadness that the trip is over. I miss my home. I love the people in my life. But I can always come back, if there is anything to come back to, in Hays.
  • Time: 1:00 PM - Head out.

    • Location: Back home.
    • Activity: Hope I can deal with all the things.
    • Emotional Reaction. The trip was weird, weird, weird!

Sleep Inn & Suites Hays I-70 Hays (KS) United States

Sleep Inn & Suites Hays I-70 Hays (KS) United StatesOkay, buckle up buttercups, because we're about to dive headfirst into Hays, Kansas, and my *deeply* personal experience with those "Unbeatable Sleep Inn I-70 Deals!" Prepare for a rollercoaster... of comfort. (And maybe a little bit of existential dread about what *is* life, really, when you're staring at a continental breakfast at 6:30 AM…)

So, Hays, Kansas. Why? Seriously, why?

Okay, okay, I get it. Hays *isn't* exactly the first thing that springs to mind when you think "romantic getaway." Picture this: me, desperately needing a break from…everything. Kids screaming, bills piling up, the existential weight of mismatched socks in the laundry basket. Then, BAM! Sleep Inn ad flashes across my screen, promising… well, sleep. And deals. I needed both. And I’m a sucker for a good deal, especially when I’m fueled by caffeine and desperation. My rationale at the time? “It's on I-70! Easy peasy. Plus, the *deals*!” (That’s always a good start, right?)

"Unbeatable Deals?" What's the catch? (Besides being in Hays?)

Honestly? Not much of a catch! They actually *are* pretty good. Lower prices, often including breakfast and a pool (though who *actually* uses motel pools?). The real catch is… you get what you pay for. Which, in this case, is a clean room, a comfy bed (seriously, the Sleep Inn beds are surprisingly good!), and the promise of escaping the chaos of real life. Sure, it might not scream “luxury,” but when you’re mentally exhausted, clean and comfy is GOLD. Also, consider it an investment. Cheap, clean, cozy, and close to the highway? You know what that means - more money for the good stuff, like, you know, road trip snacks!

Tell me about the room. Was it… motel-y?

Okay, yes, “motel-y” is accurate. But surprisingly, *pleasantly* motel-y. The kind with the slightly-too-soft carpets that you *know* have seen some things (and you really, really don’t *want* to know what). But the bed? Cloud-like. Seriously. I swear, it cradled my weary soul. The room was clean, adequately sized, and came with all the expected amenities: a TV with *way* too many channels (who watches TV anymore?), a tiny desk with a lamp, and that weird, slightly-strained air conditioner sound that you can never truly escape. But honestly? It was a sanctuary. A cheap, clean, perfectly unremarkable sanctuary. And sometimes, that’s all you need. I felt like a free bird, even for an hour!

Breakfast? The continental kind? Be honest.

Oh, yes. The *continental* kind. Which, let's be real, is a polite euphemism for "food that will probably keep you alive until lunch." Think: pre-packaged pastries that taste suspiciously of plastic, questionable coffee that somehow still manages to wake you up, and those awful, individually-wrapped butter pats. But you know what? IT WORKED. It gave me fuel to make it until the afternoon. Honestly, the sheer *availability* of the breakfast, and the promise of those pre-packaged pastries, was a lifesaver. Plus, free is free, and let's face it, I'm a simple creature. Cheap and easy is my love language.

What *else* is there to do in Hays? Besides sleep?

Honestly? THAT'S the real question, isn't it? Hays isn't exactly bursting with activities. I mean, there's Fort Hays State University (which I drove past, because, well, I was tired). There's a historical site or two. If you're into that, go for it! But for *me*? This was about the *escape*. So, I did the classic: I ate at a diner... and I slept. A LOT. And it was glorious. I also may have wandered around a Walmart for an hour (don't judge me, that's my meditation). So, yes, you *can* find things to do, but honestly, Hays, for me, was about the… nothingness. And it was perfect. Sometimes, you just need to *not* do anything.

Okay, spill the tea. What *didn't* you like? And be honest!

Alright, alright. Here's the truth. One tiny, *tiny* complaint: the lighting in the bathroom. It was… intense. Fluorescent, buzzing, and unflattering. I'm pretty sure it aged me ten years every time I looked in the mirror. Seriously. The lights are brutal! Also, okay, fine, the motel pool *was* a bit… uninviting. It looked like it hadn't been cleaned since the Reagan administration. I didn’t go near it, but I appreciated the *idea* of it. And the highway noise. Not deafening, but present. But honestly? In the grand scheme of things, these were minor quibbles. I went for sleep and found it, and that’s all that mattered. Besides, what do you *expect* for the price? It's a trade-off. It's like the old saying: You can't have your cake and eat it too.... unless it's a complimentary continental breakfast cake!

Would you go back? REALLY?

You know what? ABSOLUTELY. One hundred percent. I might not be rushing back next week, BUT… I would totally go back. Because sometimes, you need a cheap, clean, and unpretentious escape. My stay at the Sleep Inn in Hays wasn’t a life-altering experience. It wasn’t beautiful, but it was practical. It was about the escape for a few days. It was about rest. It was about the *deal*. And in that moment, that's exactly what I needed. So yeah. Next time my brain starts to feel like scrambled eggs? Hays, Kansas, and those "Unbeatable Sleep Inn I-70 Deals!" Here I come. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to find a better place to hang my socks..
