The owners were delightful people. They had renovated and decorated the small hotel, store, and restaurant themselves. The food was delicious in the restaurant. The service was excellent. If only all hotels were this comfortable and welcoming! Highly recommend and will stay there again if we’re in the area.

Great night stay!

The EC Reed Hotel and Mercantile was an excellent place to stay. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was outstanding!!! The only thing I would recommend is blinds on the windows in addition to curtains and upgrade the doors to block the light.

Small Town Comfort

We came for a local graduation party. I was so thankful EC Reeds accepted pets, as I had no one to watch my dog. The room was spotless! There was a disinfectant smell to prove it. That mellowed out over the two days. Luxurious towels and great shower! The bed was firm and wonderful! I have back issues so I was very thankful for a good mattress. Staff was very kind. I loved the shop and diner attached. Breakfast was real and well made. Free coffee in the lobby was a great perk! Overall a great stay. We can recommend EC Reeds and will be back.

Nice quaint hotel

This is a quaint hotel in a small town. The owners and staff were very nice and accommodating. We had an issue with the air conditioner, mentioned it to the owner and it was fixed by the time we returned to our room. The hot breakfast in the attached cafe was delicious (not complimentary) and the free coffee, cookies and muffins were above average. Would definitely recommend this hotel if coming to this part of Missouri

Very personable and accommodating!

We were in town for a short while and had needed a place to sleep after a long trip to get our new puppy I called prior to booking and spoke to Shelby about needing to check in early but possibly not stay the night as we needed to get back to get ahead of the storm. Shelby booked us a quiet room and we were able to check in at 6am! The place was clean, the staff was super nice, and it's just what we needed to battle the storm and a new puppy! If we are ever in the area again, we will gladly book with this place any time! Very personable and accommodating!

Very friendly, family-owned and operated hotel. Great restaurant.The window in my upstairs room was strange. The light came in at the floor and ended three feet up--more like a light well-- So, eye-level is all wall. I found it about as comfortable as booking a room with no window. They might consider discounting that room. But staff were wonderful and the community is sweet.

Really Liked Zit

This is an old building without an elevator. But you can request a lower level at your reservation. The room was shiny clean. There was water bottles and Peppermint Patties. There was a mini fridge and an attractive room set up. I’d stay here again for sure. When first entering, there were homemade cookies, snacks and soda. There was tons of hospitality put into my stay, Breakfast was donuts. I have no complaints. The one’s I had were small and promptly taken care of. I really liked this hotel.
