What guests think

Methuen Inn and Conference Center receives very mixed feedback: some guests found clean, quiet rooms, fair value, and courteous staff, but many describe a run-down property with significant maintenance problems, closed amenities, and unpleasant odors.

Repeated reports of dirty or stained linens, strong odors, and pests (roaches and bedbugs) contrast with occasional notes of tidy rooms. Rooms are dated with broken fixtures, inconsistent hot water and HVAC, thin walls, and limited or fuzzy TV channels, with some missing amenities like microwaves or blankets. Breakfast is frequently unavailable or minimal despite listings, and service ranges from welcoming to slow or unhelpful, with complaints about deposits and difficult refunds. Expect a budget stay with significant trade-offs.

Paid $140 for the night, already taken out of account. Got here and pool not working and they then charge another $150 to my credit card for essentials. Go to desk to ask for change for the vending machines and told they were not working either. The “blanket” on the bed was just a heavier sheet and pillows were just as thin.

I went with my husband and kids. I booked almost a month in advance. Got to the hotel and first thing i was hit with. Was a $100 deposit. There was nothing on the site about any deposit. First time going to a hotel and they wamtva deposit. My husband gave them cash. Then they said if its cash then we need $150. Then the pool was closed. And the room was gross

1 star is a bit much for this hotel. Room 203 had hair all over the sheets . Obviously it was not changed and I moved the mattress at there were bed bugs. We were offered another room but we declined. If one trim has them all rooms have them. Front staff did not refund Expedia and the manager has yet to respond. I will be calling the health department and have this place shut down. I have pictures as well. Refund my money or get shut down

You had to run your bath/shower water for 60 or more mins before it got hot. So no sink water was hot or warm to wash hands or wash your face. TV only had few channels that worked rest were bad reception or a bad TV. Room was dark due to several lights didn’t work in room or receptacles to plug your stuff into Super flat pillows on a king size bed. Not a good experience.

that was the longest check-in I’ve ever had first waiting in the lobby overfive minutes for somebody to show up to check us in. Then they put $150 incidental hold on the credit card. There’s nothing in that room worth $150 headboard torn and dirty shower curtains stinky desk chipped, mirror chipped. This reminded me our rooms that you pay by the hour. The bottom line is I didn’t stay the night. The sheets did not smell clean. My girlfriend didn’t wanna stay so we left.

We had a hard time finding the sign for the hotel; it was in a little corner close to the side walk, but nothing in the actual building. We noticed that the carpets at the entrance and inside has Days Inn’s name. Tub and carpet dirty and rusty. The counter were outdated and with mildew. The building should be demolished.

One of the worst places I’ve stayed in. The room was dirty, the sheets were stained, the TV was 30 channels of static analog cable and staff was nowhere to be found when I tried to at least get a set of clean sheets for the bed. I booked here instead of other options because they listed that breakfast was provided; that “breakfast” was a 4 oz cheap yogurt and a tiny bottle of grey off brand milk in a paper bag. Would never stay here again or recommend it to anyone. The only nice thing I can say was the bed was comfortable enough and the staff were kind when we did interact with them.

I stayed here with my family and the only reason why I stayed here was the pool and free breakfast they didn’t have breakfast and they informed me that the pool was closed for maintenance but apon walking through the hotel with my son we found the pool to be filled with junk and shelves. This place is not for families and shouldn’t be falsely advertising things I wasted 125 bucks to go swimming in a pool that’s full of junk and to get breakfast that was non existent. And a 150$ deposit that wasn’t listed on their website or their listing.

I am not sure the place I stayed is the one I reserved as it is so much different to what I had expected. The biggest discrepency is the breakfast. What I got was a paper bag with a can of juice and a package of cereal. Also, there was a drawer missing in the wardrobe. There were no cup in the room.
