It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I didn't see any roaches and the room was fairly clean although it is a run down building but you get what you pay for. The cigarette smell was pretty overwhelming.

Nothing fancy, but the room was very comfortable. Unfortunately, there was no desk or dining table for my laptop. Some plumbing issues in the shower and the blinds in the front window were falling down. But it was a great location. The staff was very friendly and the room was very clean.

Room 18 at the Rodeway Inn & Suites was so yucky, I checked out immediately and went elsewhere. The person who checked me in refused to refund my money. It smelled like mold. It was basically clean, but old and neglected. Old flooring, counters, paint. The lamp next to the bed was missing a lightbulb. It had a weird piece of tissue paper stuffed inside the shade, and when I touched it, sheetrock-y powder fell onto the table below. The bathroom faucet dripped. There was an empty vestigial soap dispenser on the wall, for some reason. The place was dark. Not cute. No TV, but a remote control, for some reason. I wondered if I'd get bedbugs there, so I lifted up the fitted sheet. The mattress was old, yellowed, and I didn't want to touch it, let alone sleep on it. The room was the opposite of comforting and relaxing. The owners of this place need to find some capital, somewhere, and invest in bringing it up to a respectable standard.

Room was mostly clean, bedspread had some suspicious spots on it. We didn't use it. And the hard tile floors had a cleaning solution residue that was slippery and sticky and unpleasant. Otherwise, a nice room, comfortable bed. Spacious bathroom.

PILLOWS AKA (ROCKS)

overall the stay was good, clean, well lit, easy parking. would be a 3.5 star except for the pillows they were the hardest i have ever slept on even my grand daughter complained, even if you doubled or even triplled they didnt soften. whch led to a sleepless night for both. The outside might not look the best but pretty good on inside.. staff was freindlly , courteous and efficent. REPLACE THE PILLOWS !!!!

I was hoping that the good price was a bargain. It was not. This room was clean and had a nice kitchen. On the other hand, it is old and in need of maintenance. The bathtub was not level, so there was a little puddle of water left in the tub. Three were sections of the ceig where the texture had fallen off. The floor was a laminate and it is water damaged and wearing out in the bathroom. It wasn't properly installed and you could feel the floor give as you walked on it. It would have been better with some tile in the bathroom and kitchen. has a nice little living room area, but the couch is an old and worn fabric couch that I decided not to sit on. The bed was nice and the air conditioner worked.

I specifically requested a downstairs room because I’m a disabled veteran and they told me no problem. However, when I checked in they told me that there were no downstairs rooms available (no elevator either). I struggled up the uneven stairs with my overnight bags and opened the room… it smelled musty and was hot because the AC was off. I dropped my bag turned the AC on and went back to the hospital where my son was in surgery. Got back around 11 pm and the room was still stifling! I called the office and told them, they brought me a key to another room and I moved. Turned the AC on in the second room and after waiting for an hour the room was tolerable but no telling if it was the AC or the fact that it was after dark and I had the door open the whole time. The new room even had crusty something smeared on the floor (I didn’t even want to guess what it was). The fridge was hot and had to put my food and drinks in the freezer to keep them from spoiling…

I remember that place being really well, kepted years ago. Now, it just looks like a place for the homeless. And every time i've gone, i've had to switch rooms at least three times. M s a parties is I'll probably still go back because of the prices. The staff was not like they weren't helpful.It's just the place was not well kept
