What guests think

At Quality Inn Defiance, travelers frequently praise friendly staff, good value, and a decent hot breakfast, while feedback on room upkeep is mixed and some facilities show wear, including occasional maintenance issues like an elevator outage.

Cleanliness reports range from very clean rooms to issues like stained bedding, strong smoke or musty smells, and lapses in housekeeping during multi-night stays. Rooms are generally comfortable but dated, with sporadic noise or maintenance problems such as loud AC, low showerheads, and an aging bath area. The location is convenient to stores and dining, though the entrance and access road can be confusing or rough. Overall, expect a budget-friendly, service-forward stay with inconsistent upkeep.

Limited interaction with staff. Smell was not pleasant. You cannot convert a smoking room to a non smoking room without changing wallpaper and carpet. The smell was not good otherwise room was clean and beds were comfortable. Outside not very welcoming

They did not clean our room and had to go ask for towels at 10:30 at night when got back to hotel. Feel paying 317.00 dollars just to sleep somewhere is a little much if they can’t even change the towels out and straighten the bed

We assumed it was the cleaner but it hit us everytime we opened the door. Stains around the bed on the fabric. One garbage by the back door that was overflowing. The room was never cleaned in 3 nights. Fine for the price but would hav

Hotel is average at best, cleanliness okay but hotel in need up updating badly. Bathroom shower and tub area very old and deteriorated and in need of repair. Doesn’t appear that much investment has been made to the rooms and property in many years. Better places to stay nearby.

Upon arrival, everything looks clean easy to get to and nice. At check-in, we were not greeted. We stood there for waiting for 5 minutes before we were greeted, The lady checking us in was very rude, not friendly. Very rudely we were told breakfast was from 8am-10am. Went to our room clean at first glance but the smell was musty, mildew, stale, not fresh in anyway we weren’t able to crack window for some fresh air. We were on the first floor. As you stay, you realize it’s rundown the bathroom had a leak and they just painted over it. The bed is very uncomfortable, hard Hard! The sheets were so scratchy it was miserable and not enough blanket for a king size bed, and two people. The pillows are flat as a pancake during the night. People were running up and down the hallways opening and closing doors, which sounds like they’re slamming when you’re sleeping, the showerhead points at my chest instead of above my head. For the price, it’s not worth it. I will definitely be trying the other hotels in that area.

The entire first floor had a stale cigarette/body odor smell, even though signs posted all around declared it to be a smoke-free facility. The room is “labeled” as wheelchair accessible, but the woman who checked us in was quick to note that, due to there not being a roll-in shower, it was not fully accessible. The mirrors were too high to be seen by my companion using a wheelchair and the hairdryer was mounted too high for her to reach independently. The bed height may have been decent for a hoyer lift to go under, but was too high to do a transfer from the wheelchair. (She does not bear weight at all and does not use a Hoyer lift.)

Shower heard didn’t work correctly. I’m only 5’2” and it didn’t hit the top of my head. My husband had a terrible experience with it. This is something that housekeepers should be reporting. If the showers are being cleaned properly, they would be running this. The AC was also extremely loud.

It was good quality for a cheap price. The entrance is more difficult to find in the dark than the other hotels on this street of hotels, so that may be the reason for the cheaper price.

Google reviews had me so nervous that there would be bed bugs in our room but I had already booked and couldn’t cancel. Upon arrival and check-in I immediately throughly checked the mattresses. Sheets were clean and no bugs. However the bathroom smelled strongly of smoke and the sink had several hairs as well as crumbs all over. Little guests directly above our room were running back and forth nonstop so I promptly went back to the front desk and asked to be changed rooms. She could also hear those guests constantly running as our room was the nearest to the reception desk. The front desk lady was very nice and got me checked into a room on the second floor. That room was very clean and we had no issues the rest of the stay. Breakfast was eggs, biscuits and gravy, waffles, cereal, breads and muffins, fruit, yogurt and juices and coffee.
