When we arrived we were informed the property was closing in one month. We were allowed to look at the room and decide if we wanted to stay. We arrived late and could not make other arrangements so decided to stick it out. Out room did not even have a bathroom door! That we did not realize until after paying 188.00. They had no breakfast as advertised no t.v that worked not even an alarm clock. Don't make the same mistake we did.

Poorly maintained but got partial refund

I was able to get a significant refund after letting the manager know about the deplorable conditions in our room and the lack of advertised amenities (e.g. breakfast). Our bathroom had no door, windows didn't have regular curtains, only net ones. Holes in walls and floors. No TV or phone in room. Plus side: Beds were decent. Fridge and microwave (we didn't try it, so not sure if it worked).

Room was advertised $119 for 4 people. After checkout, I got a receipt for $178, because over 2 people, there’s a $20 extra person fee per person. Got checked in. As soon as we opened the door to walk the hallway, it reeked of weed. Got in our room.... Curtains were falling down. Walls, TV stand, TV, everything was spattered with stains, not clean at all. The bathroom had no knob, just a hole in the door with a dirty rag draped through it. The inside of the bathroom was shredded from someone locking a large dog inside. Holes in the walls, door trim ripped apart, sink leaked and flooded the counter, bath tub had a baseball sized hole in it, the toilet paper holder was a hole in the wall with toilet paper stuffed in it. The blankets had holes all through them. The mattresses had shredded plastic hanging out everywhere. Overall, it was disgusting. Ended up leaving early just to get out of the room.

I arrived and had to make them repair the lock to my room, they offered me an alternative but it required a 1 hour wait, as I needed to attend a wedding I couldn’t wait. We agreed that a room for me will be available after my return. The lock of my original room was fixed. The bathroom had four lamps and only one with a light bulb. Upon request I got a second light bulb and a second towel as there was no bath mat. The overall impression of the room was not clean - but bearable for one night. The other morning I ran into another guest who could not get another towel as there were just none available. The hotel personal tried to help but the overall experience is just really bad. I had no high expectations: a clean room with a bed and bathroom for a one-night stay just for resting - but those were not fulfilled, especially for more than $120 for the stay.

The place is busted up. There are holes in the walls, in the shower, cigarette burns in the sheets, a nasty door, the knob is held in by toilet paper, the blinds won’t close, and there’s no rod for a shower curtain, so you must shower without one.

Employees were courteous and apologetic and we were given a new room without questions, but the new room wasn't much better. Our first room had no curtains on the bay window and overlooked a busy street, no pillows, and it looked like the floor hadn't been cleaned in years. Our second room had a damp floor, only two towels and pillows, no garbage can, no cable service or TV remote, fruit flies, and it looked like it was in the middle of a remodel without being cleaned. Not recommended.

This place should not be listed.

I called to request a ground floor room bc I can't handle stairs due to a back problem. When I arrived no one knew of my request but I was shown the dank "basement" aka the "first floor" - mattress was ripped and the old, yellowing foam was showing. I tried to get another room and that mattress had cigarette burns all over it. I tried to get a room on the "3rd floor" aka 2nd floor where at least the dank smell was not overpowering. No go. and then they said there was NO TV service. because of the internet but you could clearly see they had dishes mounted on the outside on the building . I ran into a local who said the town was trying to get them shut down because of the unsavory clientele. But who but the unsavory would want to stay there.

Do Not Stay Here

When we arrived at the hotel, we were leery from the view of the outside but being optimistic.....checked in. The gentleman at the front desk was kind enough, however when we asked about the amenities listed, he advised that there was no restaurant. Again, we optimistically walked through the basement hall (which was a tad scary) and made it to our room. There were no working lights. The window was broken. The room looked dirty and very uninviting. on the window sills, there appeared to be a variety of dead bugs. I would not sit down or touch anything. My husband went in search of assistance. Another gentlemen arrived and seemed confused as to why we would need a light in the room. My husband advised that we would not be staying in that room and he wanted another one. We were then moved to the room next door. Disgusting, as well. the bathroom sink was hanging on the floor, the window broken, and again.....just plain dirty. My husband addressed with the front desk and we were returned our money. Also, outside of the room, there were people smoking pot and cigarettes which of course, came into the room through the broken glass. I could never recommend this place to anyone.

The sink facet was loose and falling off. One of the outlets was falling out of the wall. The blanket on the bed was dirty, the lamp on the floor had a cardboard box taped around the bottom of it. We didn’t have any towels in the room. Every time we went to the front desk nobody was there.

the hotel has no smoking signs everywhere and walking through the long corridor wreaks of smoke. the room had a faint smell which was not a deal breaker, since I cannot tolerate smoke. There was a strange man with a brown bag of beer, who followed us to our room, saying he worked there. Somewhat of a drunkard, which scared us completely as our room was in a dead end corner. We rushed into the room and the door bolt lock was missing. We cut our stay short and left before it got dark. The water view was nice. The air conditioner did not get very cold. we rested and left.

The Stained Carpet Inn

The front desk clerk was standing at the front door like a bouncer, which was a little off-putting to start with. There was a dank smell that permeated the lobby and the hallways. The first room I was given had a door lock that was out of batteries (totally fine, totally excusable). In lieu of the first room I was reassigned to one on the lower floor. Sadly, this room left little in the ways of redemption as far as my opinion of the establishment goes. There was a desk with no chair, a TV that barely worked (depending on which volume button you pressed, it might shut off), the TV had no remote, the outlets in the room were poorly placed in relation to the bed, there were no secondary outlets (such as a lamp that you might plug into), the WiFi was weak, but then again I may have been tapped into another nearby hotel’s signal since the name of it was ‘Red Roof Inn WiFi’, the bed had two very thin and insubstantial pillows (I requested and received 2 more from the front desk), and lastly the sheets had brown stains in them. I could tell they were freshly laundered, but at the same time it still kind of skeeved me out. One redeeming factor was the plastic wrapped mattress. I’d had an experience with bedbugs years ago that keeps me cautious, but when checking the bed itself there were no issues. The mattress was also nice and firm, and ultimately the whole reason for needing a hotel room was to have somewhere to sleep.

Repulsive

The hotel staff was awful, gave us a room key and we put our stuff in the room then went to meet our friends, came back, and the door was locked and said we needed to check in twice ?? Idk. But the rooms were disgusting, filled with holes in the walls, stains on the blankets and pillow cases, the toilet kept running, no air conditioning and it was 90 degrees out. I’d rather stay anywhere but here.
