I would rate the Budget Inn Motel (----) much LOWER, but there is no lower rating! We were only looking for a bed to sleep in on our long road trip.. we were exhausted. We were not expecting much, but got much less than we were expecting!

The motel was a dirty place, the people at the reception desk were obviously under the influence of some substances, they had dirty rooms that were falling apart (ceiling was broken and falling down in places, the carpets were stained and dirty), the smoke detector kept beeping all night, there were empty beer bottles in the cupboard in the bathroom, the toilet did not work, there was an unsafe window air conditioner with frayed/bare wires-a definite fire hazard, there were noisy people next door "enjoying themselves" loudly all night long, there were noisy people running up and down the hallways at 3am, our room was rented out to 2 different sets of people in one night (someone WALKED IN ON US at 4am because they were given the keys to our room!), we got unwanted phone calls from the front desk at 4am telling us to go downstairs immediately to prove that we had paid for the night- they had lost our records from when we checked in.

This was definitely not a COMFORTABLE or SAFE place to be. We left at 4:30am and went to a reputable hotel.

Never again will we settle for "just a bed to sleep in"!

Don't make the same mistake we did!
