Tru By Hilton Omaha I-80 at 72nd Street, NE
Hotel was very clean. We loved that the room had wood flooring and not carpet. There was a decent breakfast assortment. Also, the game area was fun for kiddos.

Comfort Inn & Suites Omaha Central
Parking good, tv didn’t work when I got there, but they addressed it promptly. Not crazy about the $100 deposit, was told I’d get it back 5-10 days. Room clean, though needs some repair. Staff were all nice.
