This Budget Inn is no longer a hotel. I made reservations in May for a 2 night stay for July 26 and 27. When I arrived I was met by a family living in it who told me it was being remodeled as studio apartments and no longer a hotel. I had to seek out another hotel.
It had a bad odor, the curtains were bath towels, there was some kind of pipe that looked like some sort of unit going through the shower.
I thought it was awl place. Not at all what the pictures show.

Dirty
Was only one queen bed and one double bed not two queens beds
Call and go to front office at 9 pm no was there locked up, no one would answer phone
TV was messed up
The comforter had something red and hard on it. The trash can was dirty with no bag. The refrigerator didnt work and was moldy. The microwave was old and dirty on the inside. The sheets were full of lint and hair.
I have stayed at many budget friendly places in several countries and this is by far the most uncleanly place I have ever seen!!!
Some hairs and some stains on the linens are to be expected but this was unacceptable. Dirty & dusty. Lots of hair! Mold on the shower certain and in the heater/air conditioner. The place needs a major deep clean!
Representative called us as we had not arrived at the property on the evening of our check in date. Explained we were running late due to snow storm which they insisted on getting an arrival time from us, which shouldn't matter as they advertise 24/7 front desk, (this is one of the reasons we booked here). I advised that we should arrive around 11pm, which the rep said if no one is there, call the number on the door. As we pull up a little after expected, we see 3 police officers interacting with occupants ultimately arresting one of them that looked like she was definitely on drugs. We also see the office is closed and call the number listed on the door which no one answered as well as called the number that the rep called from and also no answer. The following day I see that they charged me for no show which i called them again but no answer as well as reached out to Expedia who also reached out to them with no response as well so I ultimately disputed the charge (sorry Expedia if this hits you Expedia but I tried) They need to either update their front desk hours or make sure someone is there as stated so people don't arrive in the middle of the night and end up paying triple the amount for one night at another location as I did.
We ended up not staying in the room because there was black mold on the shower curtains, and we were all coughing within 15 minutes of entering the room. Would not recommend this hotel.

Motel was clean, but in need of updates in bathrom. A very good value for the money rather than the high priced chains. Supposed to have a free breakfast and at least coffee which were not available. Office was locked at 7:30 a.m. so no morning coffee.

The Orbitz ad clearly stated a breakfast was provided. I made my non-refundable payment...and there is no breakfast. Also Wifi doesn't work. And the front desk charged me a $50 incidental fee, to be refunded if there is no room damage; also another payment for the room charge. I will be watching my credit card charges.
To start I didn’t expect the Radisson but did not expect just how bad it was. So frustrated we ended up packing the car back up within 5 minutes of being in the room. Was traveling with my daughter and three granddaughters on a girls trip and was checking in late and planning to check out early so just needed beds. To start the room reeked but then upon pulling the bedspreads back it got worse from there. One bedspread had a burn hole about the size of a quarter. The sheets literally looked like they had been slept in as they were not nicely tucked but instead quite messy. Then the granddaughters found a dead bug on the floor literally about 4 inches long. It was green but did not look like a grasshopper. That freaked them out. They instantly started crying scared to death. A towel over the window was the only window covering. Opened a drawer to find a spider crawling which also didn’t help. The shower ( no tub) had black along the bottom edges and I didn’t even want to know what that was. We only sat in the beds while we evaluated the situation and could tell they were so cheap and uncomfortable. Plus one bed had mis-matched bedding. One silk pillowcase and the other pillow a regular pillowcase. As a grandma, there was no way I could expect my granddaughters to sleep there as all we could think of was bed bugs, so we packed up and went down the street to the Best Western. Unfortunately I did not get photos as we just wanted out of there!

Larger bed was up off floor unevenly. Lots of flies in room from door being left open while cleaning. Cockroaches visible in bathroom and under bed. Rusty drainage in shower
This was the worst place I have ever been. The room was filthy and smelled like a mixture of smoke, body odor and mold. The bathroom was frightening. The shower was filthy and the curtain was an old disposable picnic table cloth held on to the rod by twisted wires. The staff was clueless and hard to reach and of no help. We left.
