I was unable to check in or stay in the room that I had booked because there was NO STAFF to check me in! I had to go find another hotel to stay in.

The building is just outdated and needs some repairs. Pool and whirlpool would be nice if they were actually usable.

The place needs a whole new look. Carpets were dirty, towels had dirt and makeup on them. There was either dried blood or rust on the walls and curtains. The hallways were dingy at best. The back door should get locked and have to use a key but youre easily able to get in and out of that door. Staff was ok, but not exactly friendly. Also acted as if we were inconveniencing them when asking for clean towels. Had to go to Walmart and get blankets as the bedding didnt seem clean.

Hotel is run down
This hotel is run down. The pool was disgusting. The hotel had an oder. They tried to mask it by putting car fresheners in the heating air conditioner. First morning no breakfast. Second morning they put 2 loves of bread out, a bag of bagels, cereal looked stale. A bottle of sunny Dee and Hawaiian Punch. The bed sheets were worn.

Would Never Stay There Again
Back door did not lock, indoor pool and spa was not in working condition, right beside a train track which train went through twice that night and blew its whistle several times each time, went to get breakfast at 7:45 and no food was available and no workers anywhere to ask

Was a good location and close to area businesses. Was clean and staff was helpful. The bad thing was there was old appliances in the hallways and the door to my room had to manually be unlocked with the real key not a key card. So wasnt able to leave without leaving door proped open or hoping staff was there to open it again.

Rooms was very nice and clean. Everything else seemed a bit run down but if my room is nice and clean I don't mind. Felt safe except for back door not locking, I prefer only room key access.to the motel for added safety.

I have never seen a front desk like this. I looked like a dump. The clerk was able to walk in, but barely. The pool area was locked and did not look inviting, so I did not request access. The room is good enough. And having come from visiting people with tiny beds, we are grateful. If it had not been for the front desk are, I could have been more generous in the rating. They can clean that up in an hour.

We only stayed one night. Nothing special about it. It was a good rate, nothing special about breakfast, wasn't much to choose from at 9:00 a.m. No one to restock was even around. But it was a quiet motel.

There were so many things wrong with this stay. If you can get past the overwhelming smell, the rooms don't suck (for the price point), but the customer service is laughable. The highlight for me was returning after a long day (the second of a 2-night stay) and my key not working. I stood at the front desk for more than 20 minutes. First, I tried calling, hoping the phone was connected to a cordless carried by the desk clerk. Nothing. Called the number on the sign from the lobby phone, but nothing. Knocked on the glass hoping someone on the other side of the door would come out, nothing. During my wait, a second guest came who was also locked out of a 2nd-night stay. A third guest, needing to check in joined us in our wait. When the owner FINALLY returned from outside, she told me that my key was "not her problem" and said it was my fault, and she "knew" I put it next to my phone and ruined it. (the key was kept in the sleeve the entire time and most definitely not on my phone) A simple "sorry for the inconvenience, let me rekey that for you" would have been the appropriate response. The dismissal and accusations seemed to come to her so easily that I'm sure I wasn't the first to experience her stellar customer service. Yes, it's cheap, but just spend the extra $20 and stay anywhere else in town.

Awful! Bed bugs
This hotel is rundown and in need of updating. The guy that checked us in was drunk. He was slurring his words. That isnt the worse part. When my boyfriend woke up the next morning, he was covered in bites. The hotel had bed bugs. Thankfully, we didnt bring them home with us. Awful experience.

It’s nothing fancy. Cheap overnight stay and gets the job done. If you bring dogs, there is a $10 fee per night for each dog. The hot tub ruined my swim suit by discoloring it. Was pretty disappointed. So use caution. Other than that, beds were comfortable and not a lot of noise up and down the hallways.

Only good for desperate need of sleep
Half of the outlets did not work. Heat/AC unit was very noisy so disrupted sleeping. Continental breakfast was a joke... no knifes or forks to eat or butter waffles or toast. Sidewalks had not been shoveled and were icy. Staff said owners were out of the country and did not care things were so run down. Several guests had issues with rooms.

When walking into the facility I noticed the walk ways were not taken care of. Snow and ice hazards everywhere. The lobby had an overpowering smell of curry. The clerk was unfriendly. I used a side entrance to access my room since it was closer. The card lock security system was broken so the outside door was not able to be locked. My room door appeared to have been forced open at one time and I could barely lock it with the deadbolt as the metal frame was bent. The bed appeared clean; however the furniture was very soiled. Had it not been so late in the day, I would have gotten a refund and tried to find a different place to stay. During the hour or so before I went to bed, there was a lot of noise from other rooms. People yelling, dogs barking and doors slamming. When I went to bed about 10 pm I noticed that the mattress was so broken down on the edges that if I didn't stay in the middle, I would fall out. The mattress was also extremely uncomfortable. Throughout the night the loud noises continued. Between that and the worn out mattress, I barely slept. The next morning I went to the lobby to get a quick snack before leaving as breakfast was included. I was there about 15 minutes after the time it was supposed to be ready; however nothing was there nor was there any staff in the lobby. I don't know if all Rodeway Inns are like this, but will definitely not stay in another one.

When I checked in at the front desk, I was asked if I had a dog. “No, no pets.” As soon as we go to our room, the guy that checked us in came knocking on our door. I opened the door and he started questioning me about having a dog. He claimed he saw it on the camera. I again told him that we did not have a dog. He pushed his way into our room to “find” the dog. The bathroom door was closed because our son was using the bathroom. The guy was angry and continued to accuse us of having a dog. Finally, I told my son to pull his pants up and open the bathroom door so this guy would leave. He continued to be very rude and claimed I would not listen to him after I had told him numerous times that we did not have a dog, at his pet-friendly hotel. And not only that, this place smells horrible and is gross. You couldn’t pay me to stay there again. Very dirty and terribly rude!
