About this property

Welcome to Travelers Inn

Travelers Inn is a modest motel located at 3846 SW Topeka Blvd in Topeka, Kansas. With basic accommodations and limited facilities, it offers free Wi-Fi, free parking, and accessibility features but does not provide air conditioning, a pool, or pet-friendly options. The property operates with straightforward check-in and check-out times of 3 PM and 11 AM, respectively.

The motel is positioned conveniently for visitors interested in local sightseeing and recreation, scoring reasonably for its location near notable attractions such as the Brown v. Board of Education National Historical Park, the Kansas State Capitol Visitor Center, and the Topeka Zoo. These iconic sites provide opportunities for exploring history, culture, and family-friendly activities within a short drive.

Guest reviews paint a mixed picture. Some appreciate the efforts of the hands-on owners and the affordable pricing, especially in challenging situations, while others highlight concerns about the aging property and minimal amenities. The environment may suit those seeking a practical overnight stay or budget option rather than a more polished or upscale experience.

Nearby alternatives include a range of hotels and motels with varying ratings, offering additional options within a few miles. Travelers arriving by air can expect over an hour’s travel time from Kansas City International Airport or Manhattan Regional Airport to reach the motel by car. Overall, Travelers Inn may appeal most to budget-conscious travelers or visitors prioritizing location over luxury.

This place has a bad reputation but it is awesome! My mom is homeless and we put her here a few months ago. They treat her well and if we're are in a pinch financially they always always work with us. The owners are very hands on and are trying to renovate and uplift the property. They are very friendly. Don't be so quick to judge this place by past events and gossip. I overall give this place 5 stars because of how nice they have been to my mother and I. Thank you the staff of Travellers and the owners for being so hospitable and so caring and nice in our situation. WE VERY MUCH APPRECIATE IT!

Hey, it's better than sleeping in the woods, the owners were OK with my bully pitt bull that was literally dumped in my lap when her OG owner went to jail for something that will keep him locked up well after said dog has surpassed her life expectancy..... basically even though we tend to fall behind on rent and out of nowhere we got an adult beast of a dog, which the hotel owners instantly became said dog's biggest fan and never asked for any additional deposits or fees..., they're actually really good people. I will say that yes, Traveler's is a fairly decent and affordable place for both long and short stays. But if you stay there, be ready to share your food and everything else with the cockroaches!

Great place to go if you are feeling down and out, wanting to get um, things to impair your mind, and possibly just pick up a new disease or two! What a joke that place is, I wish they would just go back home instead of operating such a business that incourages such negative ways for people to live.

The Travelers it's just what it says The Travelers is a place where if you're traveling to go see she's going in and out of places that the best place to go you want to go to sleep get up in the morning and keep moving. Supposed to go as far as finding out anyting culture-wise nothing the lodging only has a lodging for sleeping and leave me nothing else do not expect anything else and don't do anything else you just want to go to sleep go to sleep and leave it like that that's all I can say for The Travelers
