Budgetel Inn and Suites Atlanta

What guests think

At Budgetel Inn and Suites, reviews paint a mixed picture: while a few guests found clean, upgraded rooms and friendly staff at low rates, many report roaches, cigarette odors, dated rooms, and an uneasy gated environment with reduced office hours.

Many say advertised photos don't match reality, with significant maintenance problems throughout the property. Several guests felt unsafe because of loitering, long-term residents, and parking-lot activity. Others note inconsistent Wi-Fi, surprise deposits and restrictive policies, and times when staff were unreachable. Expect a very budget experience with significant trade-offs.

The room I had was fairly clean freshly remodeled outside all around the property was filthy trash laying in the bushes and flowered areas office closed on Sunday so to check out all I could do is leave my keys in the room having a security guard on staff and a keyed security gate was not a good sign to be honest if I hadn't reserved the room online upon pulling in the parking lot I would have continued on somewhere else the staff person that checked me in I was there at 6:30 I had to wait on him about 20 minutes before I could check in cuz he wasn't on the premises he was friendly as could be had no issues with me had no issues with anyone there but it was a very sketchy property very sketchy area and I was told by one of the security guards to be sure I get a room without carpet because the other room smell terrible I guess my room wasn't upgraded room and like I said the room was clean and freshly redone had no complaints there I even took pictures of the room to send to people cuz I was surprised just walking to the room though was depressing due to the cleanliness of the grounds for what it was I had no issues with my stay and it was fairly cheap

Drove 5 hrs to get there and I had to wait on the lady at the security stand, 5 or 10 minutes she finally approached me and had me park my 30 ft truck in 3 different spots before I could even get in my room. I just wanted to sleep but she was making things more difficult than needed to be. Plus the room was disgusting and the floor was falling in. Would not recommend

Expedia was awesome. They gave me my money back. That being said...We pulled up to the lobby and saw people aimlessly walking around the parking lot, working on vehicles, through the bars that surround the parking lot you could see people standing on the balcony in front of their rooms just hanging out staring at people. There is a sign on the door that says all visitors must check in, no visitors after 7 PM. To my wife's protest the kid and I go to check in where I'm told I couldn't stay there because no children are allowed. This place should be destroyed by fire.

This was the filthiest hotel I have ever seen. Entire property is dirty. Cleaning crew clearly dont clean. When I got to the room some had already used the bathroom #2 and the toilet was not flushed that let me know it was cleaned. People basically live there and they are all out with their doors open and huge dogs just walking around. I would rather sleep in the car. This was a terrible experience. Pictures need to be updated because I’m sure no one would stay here. They outside fixing on cars. And once I decided not to stay there. The hotel wouldn’t refund me.

The staff on duty was on the phone as I walked in and continued to be on the phone .. didn’t acknowledge that anyone came in. I stood there thinking he would soon finish up . But not so, he continued talking until I said , please can you call the person back ? He said , I’m talking to my supervisor. I was shocked . Then , went to the room, another shocker ; the room was smelling very bad with smoke and very bad . I thought I’d change it but when I stepped out and the receptionist asked how do you like the room, I said it was smelling smoke . His response was that they permit everyone to smoke in their rooms . Meaning that even if I change the room , it will still smell . Hence , no need changing . It didn’t stop there , upon checking out , I only met the security guard . Very nasty . I asked how do I open the gate , she kept mumbling to herself in the small security guard’s room she was in. And I said , please do you mind coming out so I could hear you because I couldn’t hear you . Also I had to come out because my uber was there waiting . She didn’t care . She kept mumbling in there . I was fortunate to have seen another guests coming in, they were ones that opened the gate and showed me how to open the gate . That I had to put my hand and pull open the small gate at the same time I was pushing button to open the gate. In fact , if they didn’t show up , I would have stood there at the gate and be pressing open button . This was 4:30am … Terrible.

When I got there the lobby was closed with no instructions. it is completely gated with a security guard. they have your key. It is more of a hotel where people are living there. There are broken down cars in the lot. My room had a rusted out refrigerator that had stuff in it. Just don't!!

This was literally the worst hotel/motel I've ever experienced. The conditions were horrendous and deplorable, unsafe and unsanitary. There were stains all over the room, floors and walls. The appliances were in terrible shape, the light fixtures were all broken and cracked. The people staying or living there were all smoking weed right out in front of the doors, the balconies literally felt like they were going to collapse and had plywood in some places, maybe covering gaps I have no idea. The website photos were the most misleading and false advertising possible. I've asked Expedia for a refund and still waiting. Do not say here no matter what, better to sleep in your car. If you read this and decide to stay there, then maybe that's your kind of element. This place should seriously be condemned.

My review is more for Expedia. Expedia made false representation of this property and overcharged by $60. After check in, I advised Expedia there was no kitchenette and the price difference. I was never offered wify access and there was smoke smell that came in through the bathroom vent. Expedia never got back to me and there is no help on their site or app. I have been a long time customer and this first time I have issues I am ignored.

Literally walked in, the front desk lady asked was I "my name" and gave me my key. Fastest check in i ever experienced. Was extremely surprised at how clean the room was based off the price. There were no bugs, especially roaches. Flat screen TV with numerous channels, free wifi, a full size refrigerator that looked brand new or extremely clean, microwave. The bed was even comfortable with clean linen. I didnt use the comforter, didn't smell as fresh as the linen. Only thing I didnt like was the room smelled like smoke from cigarettes initially. The side of the property I was on was quiet. Not much random traffic, as many people seem to stay there long term. I would stay again.
