Pools broken even though its advertised on the sign out side. Couldn't use hot tub because they had not checked chemicals. Rooms are old and WELL used. Furniture kind of dirty and decrepit. Carpets dirty. I put my shoes on to walk from bed to bathroom. Would not walk in the room without my shoes My wife wouldnt sleep in the bed. She put her sleeping bag on top and slept in that. Bathroom floor trim falling off and mold in behind it.

DON'T DO IT!!! Oh it was a HORRIBLE place (think flop house) and I felt terrible for even taking my family there. If it hadn't been so late we would have left. It's dirty, stank like cigarettes and dogs, and noisy. Boogers (or something) on the walls, filthy mattress, bathroom too disgusting to shower in. I didn't even take my shoes off because I didn't know how filthy the carpet was. We didn't do the breakfast because after the state of the room I didn't even trust the cereal they probably had. The pool and hot tub were too disgusting to use. The only thing positive was that the staff was friendly.

Blood on mattress pad. Disgusting place.

The place smelled horrible, the hallway smelled like pet urine, the room not quite as bad. Luckily, I had a bottle of Febreeze in my truck to spray the room down. The shower had hairs in it, the tub was very badly stained. The bed sheets appeared dirty/stained so I asked for a new set of sheets. The front desk man was very polite and nice, he got me a new set of sheets. When we took off the old sheets, I noticed some blood stains on the mattress pad. I requested a new one but he didn't have one to fit the king so we put a queen size one on it. The mattress seemed pretty new, it was comfortable but I would never stay here again. My wife was mad at me for getting such a disgusting room.This is my 2nd bad experience with a Budget Inn, I will never stay at one of their properties agian.

Pool was out of service, hot tub was pretty much the same! Light switch in bathroom faulty electrical loose in wall and had to wiggle switch to get to work! Toilet was a rocking chair and beer caps on the floor beside the bed from previous guest. All the issues with this stay I was pleasantly surprised on how comfortable the bed was. Not very much for a breakfast option but they had something!

I would have rather slept in my car. It offered a pool, hot tub, and breakfast. What I received was a foul smelling, filthy, loud, run down, the pool was out of service (allowed to use after 6pm that way the health department didn't know), along with the hot tub. I ended up trying to get my money back so that I could go somewhere else and was denied. The next night I was able to find a different hotel and I never looked back- worst night of my hotel traveling. 10/10 do NOT recommend.

Obnoxious drunk.

The hotel was ‘cheap and cheerful’ which is what was expected. When it came to breakfast time the cheerfulness was gone. The breakfast itself left a lot to be desired, seriously. But there is an obnoxious old drunk that is living there, he was dressed in his pyjamas being in everyone’s face and spoiling the peace. The staff simply left him to it. Before we left he even tried to hit me up for $10. The management really need to do something about him, he isn’t good for business.

What you’d expect from a 50 year old building

Overall the stay was good. The place is really old and the rooms show their age (cracks and stains) but the room was fine. It was clean as far as a 50 year old building can be clean. The tv remote did not work but I just did old school and sat next to the tv pushing the tv buttons until I found something to watch. There were a lot of channels to choose from! The walls are super thin so you can hear your upstairs and next door neighbors pretty well but all of the neighbors were kind to each other and respectful! I didn’t stay very long in my room because I kept busy during the day so for a place to sleep and the price it was fine!
