What guests think

At Travelers Motor Lodge, reviews describe a budget stay with very mixed experiences, where some guests appreciated low prices, easy parking and helpful staff, but many others reported serious cleanliness problems and concerns about the overall environment.

Many reviews cite dirty rooms and bathrooms with stained or worn linens, lingering smoke smells, and recurring sightings of roaches or bugs. Rooms are often dated with broken fixtures, thin bedding, and unreliable TVs or Wi-Fi, though a few travelers found them acceptable for a quick, low-cost stop. Staff feedback ranges from friendly and accommodating to absent or unhelpful, and the area feels noisy or unsafe to some but convenient to the highway for others. Expect a very basic, no-frills stay if price is your top priority.

DO NOT GO HERE !!! As soon as you pull in there were shady people hanging outside. Rooms around back shady. Old dirty mattress outside. Nasty broken trailer all busted up part from a tractor trailer. Room smelled of smoke and god knows what. Parking in back is shady. Looks like a slum.

Towels were dirty with black grease like substance, toilet bowl lid was cracked, shower/tub water control handle loose, no screen on the window in bathroom, no place to hang clothes in the room nor bathroom, staff not in the office on checkout, loud banging noises from room next door and no staff to handle the issue, additional fee of $30 charged with no explanation (and no staff present to ask the question to!), and the mattress on bed sags in the center. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!

Such a poor quality pace should not be included on a travel site. Front desk worker had an attitude on check in, room was dirty and had large bugs. I was so disappointed in choosing this hotel, I checked out and didn’t ask for a refund! Would have given 0 stars if it was an option.

Not the best stay. Crackheads or meth heads were out all night slamming doors and using the managers personal cellphone. Cops throughout my stay. Poor Internet. Tvs out dated. Shower smelled like a drunk persons urine.. just not the best stay..

Hotel room was literally filthy, broken down and noisy. I’m extremely disappointed. This is by far the worst hotel room I’ve ever, in my 67 years, stayed in. Staff was also very rude and unwelcoming.

It was horribly run down and dilapidated. Towels in bathroom looked to have blood or something on them . Defiantly not as decent as the pictures . Scary environment as far as patrons and such but I guess it was a motor inn .

Arrived very late night otherwise I would have asked for a refund and gone elsewhere. There was hair all over the fitted sheet. Holes in the bedspread. Scratches all over the desk. Dings and debts in the mini refrigerator. Floor seemed tacky to my shoes. They used a towel as a curtain for the bathroom window and a sheet for a curtain in the msin window. Neighbors were noisy until 3 a.m.

The wal mart is a mile away but due to detours it’s takes thirty minutes to get back after only 5 to get there. It’s loud, there’s roaches and other bugs. There’s no closets or anywhere to hang up anything or put anything away. No chairs or desk. Because of the bugs I left everything in my car

The staff was kind but the property was questionable in "guests" out back where we were supposed to stay. We told the front desk clerk, and we were fully refunded. It felt like a basement in the room. the bathroom looked nice but we didn't stay and only one overhead light for the entire room

My room was in the back… well lit thank goodness. However, the tv had no service, wifi password didn’t work, and who ever lived upstairs was up at all hours of the night keeping me up. Not a good experience except the cost was cheap. Lesson learned.

The gentleman at the front desk was very accommodating, but the room itself was in poor condition. There were wires hanging from the wall, no pictures or mirrors besides in the bathroom. There was no phone, no alarm clock, mismatched furniture. Thankfully the air conditioner was in working order eventhough the buttons were worn off. The WiFi was weak. No extra pillows or blankets. If under renovation, the owner needs to mention that on the website.

The room was ok. I enjoy a softer bed. TV was fine, bathroom was okay. There was no place to hang up clothes. The room was clean. My issue was they decided to remodel the room next to mine. One night they worked past 10pm pounding things apart. The next night they worked until 20 past midnight. I told the AM desk about the late night demolish and remodeling he told yes they were remodeling. He could have cared less.

You get what you pay for, but it was clean. Only 2 bath towels in room, no washcloths or hand towels. TV was almost impossible to get working. If you just want to place to sleep and shower quickly it's not too bad.

This was the worst hotel/motel I have been. The towels were cheap and worn out, tv didn't work and when i mentioned it to the manager he told me how to make it work. But when i complained again, he said he is going to come to check it, he never came.

There was still things belongings in the room from the previous customer, but staff lied and said it belonged to housekeeping and that they would come and get it shortly, they never did. I left 3 hours later. It was terrible !

Room was recently renovated but picture was not hung. Refrigerator was dirty and rusty. Toilet not cleaned properly. Bed had dead flea , hair and several cigarette burn holes. Room was non smoking. Reseption was had to understand. Was asked for a $30 refundable deposit ( not in reservation details) wanted cash so he wouldnt have to run and refund cards. Was refunded at check out. Didnt expect much with ratings but expected undamaged clean bedding. Not worth the price.
