My stay there was horrible, very nasty, not clean it all. The tub drain was messed up. No remote to the TV. No towels or linen that were clean. They looked very nasty. Only had one pillow on the bed. The bed coverings had cigarette burns

The property was bad holes and poor patch work. None worked toilets. Mold in the bathroom. Tried to get a different room and was offered an uncleaned room and another room that smelled like cat pee and then another room with another none working toilet.

Nay! Nay! I won't Stay!
Well, we booked this hotel on the idea we had stayed there before; we were WRONG! We booked for a king size bed, but were told upon checking in that room was under construction and were given two queens. The tub looked dirty from years of use and had a black looking mold around the top next to the wall. There wasn't a remote for the television. We were on the second floor on the corner. Upon using the stairs you could tell that it was a pretty old structure. On the balcony at the corner our room was at there was a depression top the top plate of the railing and I thought that the wood was rotted away, but on further exam I could tell that it had been on fire at some point. If Rodeway Inn was my business I would be ashamed to have this motel flying my corporate flag. It felt like a condemed building that they were renting rooms out of.

Personal good but establishment not as advertized. Breakfast not included. Room smell bad, no pillow, no mirror, no garbage can, light not working over the zink as well as the plug, no remote control for the TV, air conditon not working. This place should be close.

This place is situated between two gentlemen’s clubs and the west and tear on the beds, walls, fixtures, bathrooms are atrocious. The first night I stayed there the heat didn’t work at all with high 20s outside. I changed rooms and at least the heat worked but one weir pillow on the bed, hardest mattress I‘ve ever slept on in my life, and people coming and going all hours. Barely slept the two nights I was there. Avoid if at all possible.

This is a truly disgusting place and it is a disgrace to be under the choice hotels brand. 1. Not part of the review per say, but please note the hotel is right next door to a gentlemans club. We checked in, and were honestly already slightly concerned from the conditions of the 'hotel' outside and some of the people hanging about. We got into the room and were immediately hit with the smell of smoke. It was like being inside a giant ashtray. Also, their were burn marks in the bedding, on the tub, the bathroom floor, the counters, etc. The bathroom also had a pair of dirty socks behind the door. Also, as a bonus at the top of the stairs around the corner from the room was vomit. Anyway, my daughter has smoke allergies so we went back down to the manager, Polly. *also note this is advertised as being both smoke and pet free. I asked for a refund and was told and shown an actual sign that says no refund after 10 minutes. I reminded her we had just checked in. She said, no it has been 14 minutes. After explaining about the allergy- and the man that she had just been talking to about teaching his dog to open the door for him after being locked out when he left the room due to someone trying to steal his bike- she offered another room. The other room was equally disturbing. We actually took pictures in this room. The smell was equal to the first room, but also had a faint skunk smell. I went back to Polly and told her we could not stay!!

Crazy crooks will charge you twice
I paid through hotels.com website. When I arrived at hotel they insisted I did not pay through website and I must pay to get my room. So I paid again but was suspicious. In the morning they refused to give me a receipt claiming the system was down. I was charged twice.

Displeased with overall experience
I was very disappointed for being charged twice for the room. Hotel.com 57.50 and Roadway Inn 47.30. This was just a pain and no convenience at all, as I was getting a room for my sister who was kicked out of her home.

Was very displeased. But staff was courteous.
Room was dirty bathroom smelled horrible. Room was dusty triggered daughters asthma. There was a fast food bag under one of the beds with garbage in it. And a half drank bottle of Gatorade. Clerk was polite when I went down to office to checkout and request refund And there were three younger guys by the backsteps smoking something other than regular tobacco. Garbage scattered everywhere.

don't stay here
This place was really disappointing. The room was supposed to be double queen and in was double full size beds. The bathtub had a layer of filth in it, the toilet didn't work well, there was only one bath towel, there was graffiti and cigarette burns on the microwave, furniture was broken, the fridge didn't work and smelled terrible, the room smelled strongly of cat pee-- basically, everything was old, busted, stinky, and stained, and if it weren't so late when we checked in, we would have left-- and this is coming from budget travelers who are used to staying at shabby budget hotel rooms.

A place to sleep !
Well to start the room had one washcloth and one hand towel that was severely stained . Also there was a piece of bed frame sticking out on corners of bed that me and my sister hit our leg on . Left a mark on both of us ! And it's nice and convenient for strippers at club nextdoor ! Witnessed several women coming thru bushes to meet guys and then go back thru bushes ! Wow more than I wanted to see!

Nice managers, bad rooms!
Management was very nice. Hotel was quite terrible. Cigarette smoke and loud voices permeated through the walls. Banged my legs on bed frame. Old uncomfortable beds and pillows. Manager gave us a “better” room second night. Still bad. Needs repair. Grout lines stained, paint chips, dirty carpeting. Sorry! :-(

I booked a non smoking room, but it didn’t smell like it. The smell was so bad I had to go get air fresheners to cover up the smell. There was burn marks in the room. The room was not clean. Lots of little things missing. Would not recommend

The staff was very pleasant and welcoming. The motel room was nothing special. We found hair ties, USB ports and a few other things in the sheets. The door lock was previous busted in. The motel is next door to a strip club and we watched the strippers bring men back after close. The “breakfast” that was included was a powdered donut and cold coffee.

Don't waste your time...
When I walked into the lobby, there was an overwhelming smell of marijuana... probably not the BEST thing to smell. Then the beds were uncomfortable and small for queens (doubles more like it). We almost fell iffba couple of times, because the beds were falling apart, and ALL the towels smelled like cigarette smoke. I won't be back.

Needs some work
Noisy traffic in the area. Some idiots driving motorcycles fast in the parking area at two in the morning. Not really a family destination. Plumbing leak around base of toilet. The appliances worked and the lights did too, but we were disgusted by the linens. Weird looking bedspreads and pillow cases. The room immediately gives the impression that it could use more cleaning. If I ever had another reason to stop off in that area, I would sacrifice convenient location for a more suitable hotel. At least the price wasn't bad, but you barely get what you pay for.
