It’s not as unsafe as it seems though I totally understand why people would feel unsafe. An Uber driver who knows the area told me the people staying at the hotel are harmless. The conditions of the hotel don’t help it appear safe though. The floors are dirty, the bedspread is grimy, there are bugs in the bathroom, and the rooms smell unbearably like smoke. I’ve been a smoker in the past and don’t usually mind the smell, but even this smoke smell was overwhelming for me. It was wild how bad it smelled. I did consider leaving at one point but stuck it through.

Absolutely the most disgusting room I have ever rented - left after a few hours - leaky airconditioner, no towels and between the weed and cigarette smell we couldn’t breath - DEPLORABLE

The stench of cigarettes hit us before we entered the room. Particularly charming was the rotting pear in the window of the next room down.

Extremely unsafe hotel. I stopped in and booked another hotel as I was waiting for my room key, because I could immediately tell the place was dangerous. While they were fumbling with finding my reservation, someone came in high and it was clear this was a normal occurrence. Room strongly smelled of smoke. I would not be surprised if this hotel were a hotspot for crime. I locked myself in the room for five minutes waiting for my Uber, and sprinted when I had the chance. My 15 minutes at the Rodeway Inn was the scariest experience I’ve had in a long time.

Cold shower, no hot water. Rooms need a thorough wipe down and vacuum. Surfaces were sticky and carpet was dirty and found someone's prescription pills near bed.

NON SMOKING Room smelled like cigarette Factory!!!
We book a NON SMOKING room but when we opened the door to the room we were overwhelmed with the smell of cigarettes. The room was most definitely not NON SMOKING. We asked if they had another room that did not smell like a cigarette factory but they said there were no other rooms available. My wife is allergic to cigarette smoke so we left and found another room. Also - there were lots of cigarette butts outside of ALL of the rooms. This hotel is not nice enough for Hotels.com and definitely should not be advertised as NON SMOKING. I demand the refund of our money as this room as NOT ACCEPTIBAL AT ALL!!!

Room was obviously dirty...not cleaned in corners and debris still there and not picked up.. Blanket and bedspread had holes in them. No coffee pot, hairdryer smashed and broken refrigerator had no freezer and was not cold, so they gave us another one with freezer.
Sidewalks ther broken in pieces and there was no wheelchair ramp.
Manager was helpful but that is about she could do.

Left with some bug bites all over. Couldn't tell from what. Certainly opted to pay higher price for better conditions in the future
