If you are traveling to Atchison for a nice vacation, I recommend that you reserve a room at a bed and breakfast or a newer hotel. The Atchison Motor Inn is several years old and you can tell. The rates are very cheap, but the rooms are also very old. They recently showed me one of their "nicer" rooms. It has holes in the frayed dirty carpet. The walls were stained. The comforters were thin and ragged. I didn't even dare look at the condition of the bathroom. Do yourself a favor....spend the extra money and book another place for your travel accomodations.
