You get what you pay for. If you expect a $50/night room you will be “satisfied”. If you expect $150 while paying $50 you will be extremely dissatisfied.

Would not recommend

Showed up and they were under renovation and our construction workers didn't want to stay there. The front desk apologized for all the mess and said they'd happily refund the room. I asked Hotels.com for a refund and now they are denying the refund. Would not recommend.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
During my stay, it was evident that what is labeled as “renovations” on-site is in reality a collection of hastily assembled and poorly executed construction efforts. Loose boards, exposed screws, and unfinished areas created an atmosphere that not only felt uninviting but also posed safety risks. These issues left me concerned not just for my comfort, but also for the well-being of other guests who may unknowingly encounter these hazards. The condition of the property significantly affected my stay, and I found it disheartening that such basic safety and quality standards were overlooked. Given the current state of the premises, I am unsure if Budget Inn is committed to providing an experience that aligns with even minimal expectations for guest satisfaction.

Unbelievable

Not so good... The first room was given. The toilet didn’t flush & a/c knobs didn't work....I immediately went to the office to request another room.....The second room did have face towels, they only had 2 big drying towels in the room. There were spirder webbs in the corners of the bathroom. I saw a roach underneath the sink area. The curtains didn’t close properly, the tile on some parts of the floor had air bubbles, the furniture that the tv sat on was had gap when the draws was closed. The bed sheet had cigarette burns on them. When I paid for a non smoking room......

Eww! Avoid like the plague

Cigarette butt on the dresser, someone elses hair on the bed. Broken soap pieces and toilet paper all over the bathroom floor. Honestly looked like the toilet had overflowed and let dri rather than mopped up. Curtain held up with a zip tie. And must be a popular place for drug traffic, strangers kept knocking on my door as late as 2- 3am and stayed talking loudly outside my room when i refused to open the door. Gross and did not feel safe

Disgusting dirty nasty hotel

The check in clerk didnt speak english didnt know what she was doing. Then the bedspread was stained and the stain went all the way thru to the sheets did not sleep in that bed. There was a large crack under the door so cold air blew in all night. We didnt want to walk on the floors without shoes lots of dirt crumbs and sticky in some spots. Did not use shower at all it was simply disgusting. Never ever go back never ever suggest anyone even think about staying there!
