Travel Inn

these guys run a tight ship. i'll spread the word & will def be back! clean rooms & fast sevice!

My wife and I were so glad we took a chance on this place. We didn't have reservations and were tired from driving Saturday night and started hunting for hotels on our phones. Every other hotel wanted $80 or more. Travel Inn was only $42 so we rolled the dice.The good: Obviously the prices. Also the room was very clean (bordering on immaculate) which is something that is EXTREMELY important to us. TV worked fine and was positioned conveniently angled down at the bed so you could lie back in bed and watch. Room had recently been updated. Bed was comfy. Room had no odors. Check out was 11am.The bad: The parking is cramped and not well lit. I'm glad we drive a crappy car. Wouldn't want to park a new car in this lot overnight. The hotel was within hearing distance of active train tracks, but we could barely hear it in the room with the TV off and weren't woken up. No hair dryer. The night clerk was withdrawn and minimally pleasant. The coffee maker was a little old and odd, but now I'm getting nitpicky. This place was great.This isn't bad, but the hotel is run by Indians and that may account for the other reviewer's 'poor' experience. Her review certainly wasn't representative of our stay. I really wanted to give it 5 stars, but it is a cheaper non-chain hotel and the parking lot isn't comforting at night.

Do not stay here. We paid $55 for one night and there was motel furniture outside our door. I didn't think much of that until the morning after we woke up with bed bug bites and my thoughts were that furniture was probably removed from another room that had bed bugs. I went to office with my complaint and the man at desk just shrugged his shoulders at me. I contacted city to tell them of the disgust in that motel

We stopped here because the Super 8 down the street was full. It was pretty shady.The Bad: The room was extremely outdated and ugly. There was a Taki under the bed that they missed when they cleaned. The baseboard was crumbling in places. You don't get your pet deposit back and we were traveling with 2 dogs.The Good: We checked for any signs of bed bugs and roaches and didn't see anything. The sheets were soft and clean. I don't know where they bought the pillow I slept on, but I almost stole it. It was the most wonderful pillow I've ever slept on. The beds were comfortable. The AC worked good. The bathroom didn't seem like it belonged in the room because it was modern and updated.I wouldn't stay here on a romantic getaway, but it was okay for what it is: a place to stop when you're traveling across the country and have no standards other than a nice roach free room to rest your head for the night.

This place is a TOTAL DUMP. If I could give it ZERO STARS, I WOULD! It's a SH*T HOLE and the room SMELLS like it, too!Ironically, the sign out front boasts "CLEAN ROOMS". Really? WELL, CERTAINLY NOT THE ONE I GOT!After traveling for 10 hours on a cross country road trip, we were beat and pulled into this place. BIG MISTAKE!$62 for a disgusting, BIZARRELY arranged and painted room with FILTHY carpet that smelled like human feces-especially if the installed-for-Wilt-Chamberlain A/C wasn't on! Turning it to the "heat" mode made the STINK even more intense.The room was a sickening mixture of some kind of sweet freshener and the poopy smell of the carpet.Cinder block walls painted in someone's psychedelic, mushroom-induced NIGHTMARE colors of hot pink, bright orange and a downright creepy, bright, human flesh tone. BLEGHHH!!!!Have I entered the Land of Oklahoma Giants or something? The ac/heater was cemented into the wall at such a height that I had to stand on a chair to see the controls. 1980's t.v. and the owners had apparently REMOVED the "Enter" button from the remote. LAME, LAME, LAME!!!The inadequately tiny clothing hanger/rack was mounted almost to the ceiling and in a very strange place, too. Being broken and COATED with dust and dirt, nobody would try to use it anyways.Not even ONE stinking hanger provided, or a luggage rack- thank goodness we got stuck paying more for the extra bed, or we would have had to put our stuff on the PUTRID, DISGUSTING, NASTY carpet that should have been replaced 25 years ago. Somebody's old microwaveable burrito mix crap was in the freezer, which, btw, was so crusted over with frost that I couldn't even get my cooler packs in there to prep for the next leg of the trip!The bathroom should have also been updated AT LEAST 25 years ago. One towel rack had apparently been ripped from the wall some time ago, and the owners just left the remaining hole in the wall and painted over/around it. Nice.COMPLETELY INADEQUATE number of towels and wash cloths for a room with TWO queen-size beds...Only TWO towels and two wash cloths. WTFO??? Luckily, there were only TWO of us and not TWO additional kids to fill the other bed. Whoever is running this place is either CHEAP of just STUPID. Maybe BOTH...Weird colored drapes were LOADED with visible dust in the pleats and who-knows-what white goop sprayed all other them...Yup-I can just imagine. MAJOR "ICK" factor.Furniture looks like they got it from some "we are upgrading" hotel auction or perhaps craigslist. Just two chairs in the room (#117). The one at the "desk" (just an oversized TABLE) was DIRTY, ripped, and so close to the floor that we just pushed it aside rather than sit on the broken, nasty, disgusting thing. YUCK! Another item that should have been replaced 25 years ago...The other chair had wooden arms that were so chewed up we had to avoid them lest we be impaled with splinters. (Are our vaccinations up to date?)Needless to say, I inspected the bed VERY carefully for any signs of bugs. Happily, I found nothing, although there was a terrible buildup of dust and dirt all around the walls where their apparently cheap vacuum (if they have one at all!) doesn't clean. Hubby went to the office across the parking lot, thinking that's where the ice machine must be located. NOPE! The desk clerk took his ice bucket and went into the attached GARAGE to get him some ice from the machine. Oh, DEAR! WHERE THE HELL HAVE I LANDED?!Parking is weird and completely inadequate. No breakfast, just coffee in the lobby (next to the GARAGE!) BIG DEAL!!! I've stayed in LOTS of motels and hotels-ALL AROUND THE WORLD-and this one ranks COMPLETELY at the BOTTOM. For what you get, it isn't worth the money.This place is the reason why people pay $40 more a night to stay at the comfort inn or days inn.AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! Don't even THINK about staying here! DRIVE PAST WITHOUT RESERVATION! FIND ANOTHER PLACE TO SPEND THE NIGHT!GROSS, GROSS, GROSS - AND A TOTAL RIPOFF. PERIOD.
