I'm a business traveler and I purposely set my expectations low so that I can be pleasantly surprised by the very least of conveniences. For that reason, I was pleased to have a minifridge, full ironing board, iron, and wall mounted hair dryer in the room. As for the room itself, the carpet had patches missing, I killed 5 spiders...

On the website the pictures of the motel are beautiful and so is the discription. I was so looking forward to the "heated pool" they mentioned. All we saw when we opened the drapes in our room was dead shrubs and a covered pool. The motel was having work done and one day we were without electricity because they were... More

I was a little worried after reading all the reviews after Hotwire confirmed this as my hotel. I read the one about Brenda and the others in reference to bad smells and just dirtyness. So when we arrived I was already to look at the room and then go book something else and spend the next few weeks arguing with... More

On-line photos and the ad didn't give a clue to the actual condition of the hotel. There were men with grocery carts sleeping in the weeds surrounding the parking lot. The clerk didn't have my pre-paid reservation information and sent me to another hotel. The clerk complained that the booking site I used doesn't pay the hotel on time. She... More

We chose this hotel because of location. The first thing we noticed is the building and grounds are a mess--shabby is too good a word. The smells in the hallways and in our room were nasty. Our bathroom stunk and had cracking tile and just looked very old. We had to unplug the TV to plug in the coffee maker.... More

Check out Best Inn and Suites 5 miles down the road. Ive stayed there and HJ. This hotel is the worst I have seen in a long time, especially for the money. Parking sucks, smells and in poor repair. Would'nt recommed this hotel to an enemy. More

Probably the worst hotel I've ever stayed at. Room had an eye watering odor. It almost smelled like there was a gas leak. Toilet ran all night and as someone else mentioned, the handle needed to he held down for the entire flush. Everything was outdated and worn. Batteries on the remote were being held in place by scotch tape.... More

When we pulled in late at night, the attached bar/restaurant was hopping! A bit disconcerting for a single woman from the boonies. The room was clean but had a funny smell-carpet shampoo and/or wet dog. The bathroom vanity was very small-nowhere to put your things. Beds were fine. The breakfast bar was dark and dreary for our early morning departure.... More
