Its a Nay for me at this Stay!
I didnt really care for my stay at Stay Inn. For starters, I didnt like their cancellation and refund policy.I get that this is a independent motel, but when someone has to cancel a room by a week or later , it just sounds absurd to me. Most hotels give you at least a 24-48 hour notice. And they apparently don't have telephones in the rooms. Also , the lack of providing a breakfast in another downside. Breakfast is served all ear round and should be considered an amenity. The cleanliness and condition of the rooms was pleasant. And the entrance to getto the main doors is awkward . I wont be staying there again.
