I arrived by train extremely early in the morning, and staff were kind enough to help me store my bags behind the desk before check-in. The common areas are large and clean, as was my room. I had to leave before breakfast, however, it is included. Although only a five minute walk from the Amtrak train, everything else is a decent (walking) distance away (although that seems typical for Topeka). The hotel itself is massive, which gives it the feeling of being mostly empty. As a solo female traveler I was a little creeped out by the isolation. The hotel had the usual wear and tear, but nothing dramatic. This is overall what I expect from a budget hotel, so I have few complaints.

Fantastic staff! We booked 5 Rooms. The staff was amazing from booking to check out. They remembered our names, were always smiling and willing to answer questions. The rooms were very clean and had plenty of lighting. Even though the hotel seemed pretty full there was plenty of good parking and night time was quiet. Only negative might be, the heater/ac unit seemed to run constantly and we couldn't get the room temp adjusted 100% correctly. All 5 rooms had this same issue. We came to town for our sons wedding and could not have picked a better place for our stay. We would definitely stay here again.
I stayed at the Endeavor Inn on my drive from Denver to Indianapolis and then again on the way home. It was a good choice of where to stay in Topeka. The rooms were similar. Double Queen Bed rooms, a microwave and mini fridge. A spacious and comfortable room. The first stay found the A/C struggling to keep the room comfortable. When I made the return reservation I mentioned this. The staff probably set the A/C to high before my second arrival. The room was nice and chilly. This made the return trip stay very nice. The hotel is quiet and comfortable. It could use some attention to worn areas inside, but nothing major. There is a nice patio area with the pool. I didn’t get a chance to check it out but it looked very comfortable outside my window. The staff was courteous and professional. Breakfast was served each morning. There are restaurants and service stations in the vicinity. The initial booking through an online service was about $20 cheaper than booking direct but even at the higher rate, it was affordable. With the cooler room on my return, I was very happy with the Endeavor Inn and highly recommend it.
Clean and comfortable. While almost all Hampton Inns meet that standard, the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff make this one stand out. We stayed here before and had similar experiences. This trip, I left clothes hanging in the room when we departed on a Sunday. I called in: the housing staff had turned the clothes in (not always the case at these mid-range hotel/motels), and the desk staff made sure they were mailed to me promptly - and using a least cost USPS box which was almost certainly not the most convenient way to get it back to us. Kudos to Retta (who was at reception when I called in) and Atif (who apparently was the person who actually mailed the package to me)!
ゲゲストLiterally the nastiest hotel I’ve stayed in period. Super outdated, room smelled musty, blackout shades were stained, the bathtub was rusty and needed a power washer, the carpet was questionable and I wore my crocs at all times. This place doesn’t deserve the Marriott flag and needs to be demolished.
ゲゲストHotel is a little overpriced for the quality, breakfast could also be better. The internet was a little slow at times as well, Lakin the front desk girl was super friendly which made up for the quality of the hotel and the overpriced room. Other than that, my stay was great!
I was not able to check in early, but it made little difference. the front des was ready for me to check in very quickly and easily. Breakfast was pretty simple, but good Great sleep in a very comfortable bed and room was nice I am supposed to use 200 characters, but am out of words
