What guests think

Reviews of Highland Inn describe a budget stay with friendly, quick check-in for many guests, but mixed room conditions and maintenance; some find clean, comfortable beds while others report bugs, odors, weak air conditioning, or worn bathrooms.

Facilities are limited, with repeated notes about the pool being closed or dirty and parking feeling tight. Location feedback varies: convenient to restaurants, shops, and the highway for some, but noise from a nearby bar or loud guests and an away-from-everything feel for others. Overall, expect a basic, budget stopover with inconsistent quality across rooms and service.

Stayed here multiple times. It’s always been rather nice, this time I am unsure what the difference was between the last time and this. Room was hardly clean , sink had hair from prior stay.

We read a few reviews that said the property was clean but I beg to differ. Our towels had pubic hairs embedded in them, same with the “new” clean ones we received our second night. The property was in poor condition with lots of scuff marks all over the walls and half done repairs done on the walls. We saw quite a few bugs during our stay, one was on our bed when I killed it. The bedding had a few red stains on it, and holes burned into them. When first coming into our room it smelled of cigarette smoke although it said it was a non-smoking room. People were extremely noisy at late hours of the night, yelling and talking extremely loudly right by our room keeping us awake or waking us up. We will be doing more research on the places we stay from here in our. There is more to say but I think you get the gist.

This place was disgusting. The room smelled of smoke, the chair had a hint of vomit, metal was rusty, carpet had a 12 inch area between the beds with some kind of jelly-like substance that was not dry and could have been cleaned.

Cheap, close to venue we were attending. Bed was clean, comfortable, floors were dirty, bathroom had hair balls, and the drawers were dirty, mattresses did have bed bug covers on them so i did feel relieved enough to stay the night.

A good option if you are looking for a room at a budget price. It was just right for a quick, get off of the highway, stay. The bed was comfortable (and I'm very sensitive to an uncomfortable one) and the room was clean (although the bathroom needed some maintenance to the tile). Really the only problem was a terrible air conditioner. We turned the temperature down to 64 and it probably didn't get down less than 70 in the room. It also seemed quite humid.

They property is located next door to a bar so if you want a quiet night's sleep forget about it. Also, we asked for a printed receipt as our trip was a business expense. We were told that since the room was booked online she couldn't give us a receipt.......it had to be printed from our email.

I get there and they had no room for me. Booked a room online and the lady at the counter was baffled as to how I was able to reserve a room through Expedia. It will take a few days to have the refund to my credit card for the hotels mistake, not mine! So I cannot rate the quality of anything else about this hotel.

The first room we stayed in had no Air Conditioner that worked. No one at the office would answer the phone. The next morning I had them to change rooms and it was fine until the cleaning lady started beating on my door at 9 am.

Be sure you dress in the bathroom before getting out. No knocking from housekeeping, they just walk right in.
