What guests think

At Royal Inn Midvale, reviews highlight very low prices and a walkable, convenient location, but also note dated rooms, spotty upkeep, and a strict cash-only deposit policy that shapes much of the check-in and checkout experience.

Service feedback is mixed, with many citing rude or unhelpful front-desk interactions and strict cash-only deposits and refunds, while others encountered friendly staff and quick help. Cleanliness concerns recur, including stained carpets and linens plus strong smoke or incense odors, and a few reports of bugs. Facilities feel worn, with repeated notes about broken ice machines and unsecured doors, though parking is available and some stays were quiet. Expect a budget stay where price and location outweigh polish.

This place is pretty gross. The carpet is stained, there was finger nail polish all over the window bench, bugs in the bathroom, and the shower was disgusting. The doors weren’t locked and there were a lot of questionable people hanging around the property. Don’t stay here.

Front desk attendance burns inscents and is hardly ever there. If you have a problem he won’t try to fix it, just tells you that you will have to speak with a manager. Rooms are dirty and stained. I got bug bites. They will tell you that everything is under renovation, there is not crew there working on any such thing. Do not stay here. Sleeping in your car feels like a better option.

The staff was friendly, but the walls are thin and there was a lot of pounding noises each night for different reasons. The mattress was not good; saggy with feeling the springs. I bought a 1" memory foam to put on it to make sleeping there tolerable. The back door had a torn out lock and the room closet was missing half a door

Over all a fairly nice place. Rooms are nicely appointed , carpet looked fairly fresh, choice of wood and Mountain theme made the room look cozy. Hallways are in dire need of a fresh coat of paint. Great location, close to everything. A lot are within walking distance. Both the Owner and his wife are in site, and very pleasant to work with. Will stay here again in the future and recommend to friends in the future for Ski Trips in the Winter months.

I am not picky. This hotel was absolutely filthy. Sheer disgust. Think of the grossest gas station bathroom and make it into a hotel room. Walked in and the window was shattered from a baseball. Smelt like someone took a Clorox wipe and wiped everything down with the same 1 wipe. So so so filthy. Walked in. Cried. Then left. Did not stay more than 10 minutes. Surrounding area seemed safe and fine.

We used to stop here on our way across the country, but this will be our last time. The property has gone downhill since our last visit (2 years ago) and our room was very dirty. We arrived very late and had to wait for quite a while to check in, because the front desk agent was arguing with another guest about the cleanliness of his room. Overall it was a place to stop for a quick sleep, but won’t be returning.

Clearly a refurbished Super 8, not in great condition but clean enough. Bed was rock hard and there were noisy guests pretty much all night. Loud music, yelling, and paper thin walls. If you’re only staying for one night, the price is good and you could probably deal with it. But I would not recommend.

Bottom line I've come back but the service is bad to hostile. They insist on a $100 cash deposit (which you can get from a machine for $3.) I bet most people don't realize they are paying 10% more. Woman was resistant to give a receipt and even count it back. They should just raise the prices. Pricing equal it is not as good as nearby Extended Stay America but better than nearby Econolodge.

Upon check-in having already paid, the woman on the desk (complete miserable SOAB) no empathy or compassion insisted there is a $100 Cash deposit, to some folks this won't be an issue but as a non national, lifting cash comes with extras fees, there was no way around it. Use the machine onsite and be charged $3 fee plus my cash withdraw fees comes to about $8 total on top for a basic hotel. The hotel is in a decent location but is poor quality and not very well kept. For these reasons I have avoided this brand on my ongoing trip. Old lady on the desk should be let go, clearly her decent days are behind her.

The hotel was nothing like the pictures! I booked 2 rooms in one reservation and it said adjoining rooms available upon request. I don't think they know the definition of adjoining rooms. At least we got ADJACENT rooms. The photos online showed a complimentary breakfast bar but hotel staff said that it was "part of the old place" and nothing else. The place reeked of marijuana the second we walked in the front doors despite being a distinctly non-smoking hotel. They demanded $100 cash deposit *per room* upon check-in with no prior communication about having cash and we ended up having to use an ATM. One room had a missing cushion on the window seat and a weird plastic piece in the door to where the door wouldn't click shut without pulling it out. Both rooms were grungy, not at all like the photos. The other room had missing cabinet doors, and the lights in the main room flickered on and off and wouldn't turn back on for at least 45 minutes at a time. There was USED toilet paper shoved in the peephole from the inside and the latch lock was BROKEN! This place was absolutely horrible and we will never be returning!

The photos on Expedia showed a continental breakfast, but when we arrived, the front desk said they didn't serve breakfast anymore. The app also said the hotel was less than 10 miles from the airport, it was almost 18 miles from the airport. We were road weary and decided to stay anyway because we didn't want to hassle with trying to get a refund and book a room elsewhere. We then got settled in our room and went to get ice, only to find the ice machine was out of order. We were traveling with my mother who has dementia, so again, it would have been too much trouble to move to another location and get her upset. Imagine our surprise when the coffee maker also didn't work in the morning!! All in all, I would give our experience with the Royal Inn, a zero star if it were possible! The Royal Inn was a Royal Pain!
