What guests think

Reviews for Crown Inn are mixed, citing a budget-friendly, convenient base near shopping and transit, but also frequent road noise and limited amenities, with stays ranging from tidy and comfortable to below expectations.

Beds are often praised, and a few guests found rooms spacious, though layouts and finishes feel basic. Cleanliness is inconsistent, with recurring complaints about dirty floors, worn bathrooms, and lingering smoke odors, contrasted by several reports of acceptably clean rooms. Service feedback is mixed too: many describe friendly, helpful staff and smooth check-in, while others noted room assignment errors, early housekeeping, poor follow-up, or a last-minute cancellation. Expect a no-frills roadside stay best for short, budget-minded visits.

This is a very basic motel. It seems secure. Rooms are all hard surfaces. Minimal furniture (just one desk chair). Bathroom clean. Bed comfortable and bed linens clean. Smelled like cigarettes. Noisy - it's next to a highway - but window kept sound level tolerable for me.

Tiny motel with accessible parking lot, mc donalds next door, decent neighborhood. Located on a main road, 20 minutes away from prudential center. Not recommended for kids but couples.

it is a value hotel, and fine for a one night stay. The bed is really nice and comfortable, and that's important. The road noise is pretty loud inside the room, but that's not the hotel's fault, it's right on the road so keep that in mind. no frills, but we know that. Still a good overnight stay.

The place was good place however, room says no smoking and the upstairs tenant was smoking and was seeping thru the bathroom vent causing our room to smell like Marijuana. Floors were dirty, bed bugs on bed. No irons available in room.

The pictures online are deceptive. The furniture is worn, the tiles and tub in the bathroom were painted once upon a time (bad idea) and all thr piaint is peeling. $45 a night would have been too much to pay for this room.

Do not book here. I checked in, then left 5 minutes after seeing the bedcover with at least 10 large stains. Owner seemed appologetic. But it ended up costing us an additonal $$$ to get to a cleaner hotel

Clean your floors. If a person’s socks turn black as coal, it’s too dirty. The noise level was terrible. You can hear cars and trucks go by all the time. If you are tired and want some peace of mind, stay away. The staff took no responsibility for the filthy floor. They pretended that my husband wasn’t even there.

This is a smoking facility. I booked a non-smoking room, but I got a smoking one. After waiting for 2 hours to change to a different room, they still gave me a smoking room. As a result, I couldnt sleep at all bc of wheezing. I had to leave early the next morning. I also left my phone wall charger. I called. They said they would check with cleaning staff but never called me back. The streets are noisy from midnight to 1-2am. Never come back.
