Rooms are hit and miss. Some have heat and some don’t so I carry an electric heater with me. It’s close to town and have had no problems at night . Make sure to check room for working lights and ac

I found the Royal Inn to be very outdated and in need of repair and cleaning. The highlight was a very nice bed and linens.

Kind of a low cost gem. It was actually a nice little place for the lower cost. The room was clean and cozy.

The hotel is very cheaply run. No coffee. Only microwave is in the lobby. The toilet paper is gossamer (useless). Shower temperature varies. Retro architecture.

Considering it was the only available room in the city of Portsmouth, OH, we really had no other choice than "The Four Keys" this was the better choice. However this place was nowhere near "Royal" we were put in a room that reeked of cigarette smoke, it was very dingy, the door looked as if it had been broken into more than once.

Booked room for 2 adults and I kids plus two dogs. Opened room to have only one bed and no couch. Then was moved to a room that was not only dirty, but had bullet holes in the window. It was. It smelled terrible, smoke plus moldy. It was very late after many hours of driving, so tried to sleep on top of bed with blankets we originally brought for dogs.

This place was pretty horrible. The bed was over soft in about 27 years old. The bathroom was so disgusting that I didn’t wanna go in there. The floor was dirty things are falling off the walls and it smelled horrible! The only benefit they had… I don’t remember.

I would really like to discuss a refund - this property was very unclean and I didn’t even feel comfortable taking a shower here, there was so much dirt and debri in the tub and I pulled out about a clump of dirt and hair larger than my arm out of the drain in the tub. The tub drain was stuck shut at first and I had to pry it open to even get the blockages of hair and dirt out: on top of this was the room was very unclean there were over 20 burn holes in the blankets. The floor was never swept and room loomed like it was never cleaned

This was the worst place I have ever stayed in. There was gang graffiti all over the walls bedding looked like someone pissed in it,the room smelled horrible. The bathroom was so nasty none of us took a shower. The towels had blood all over them. My niece literally fell in the room because there was something all over the floors. I asked the front desk for part of a refund and I was told absolutely not. So don't even think the picture on the outside is a good reference for how the motel is because you will be in for a big surprise.

Stayed there on a Friday and Saturday night. Friday night our neighbor next door was beating the pulp out of a woman the whole night. The second night (Saturday) consisted of 5-6 mid 20s guys yelling and screaming while blasting music in their cars and speeding around the small parking lot. Fights broke out, yelling, it was ridiculous. Stay at your own risk, and make sure to be packing. Our door frame showed signs of being kicked down several times. 2/10 only because it was just a place to sleep in between travels. Rooms had sagging ceilings, leaking sink and shower, smelled like mold and bleach. Wouldn’t stay for free.
