The room was clean, comfortable and close to food and other entertainment type options. Not many options when it comes to hotels in Oneida, and this worked out well for us.

No top lock on the doors makes women traveling alone feel super unsafe. It was rundown, the bathroom was in desperate need of repair, the towels and the tub both brought me to the decision I’d rather not shower. It was quiet.

Royal Inn was convenient to where I needed to be to meet my friends from TN. I was pleasantly impressed that it was managed by a family. The manager did a great job of greeting me and offering assistance if needed during my entire stay. The staff were helpful and friendly. I would stay there again.

Everything was dirty. Went to ask for new stuff and the guy was mad and made of ton of reasons why they weren’t dirty. Gave us new ones and still was getting mad. Half of the outlets didn’t work and the door wasn’t sealed correctly. Do not stay here if you want to be comfortable

Location was good. Staff was excellent. Room was clean but dated. The shower was unusable. There was no reliable temperature regulation. Meaning it would go from scolding to cold.

Low budget great stay

This is a none expensive kind of hotel. The from desk friendly and those staying at the time I was there too. Room was very clean, had micro coffee maker fridge and air conditioning worked well and good lighting. Bed was comfortable TV had cable & movie channels. There is no luxury here but for the price you cant go wrong. It's close to food restaurants ice-cream parlor Wal-Mart pharmacy and automotive stores. Close to museums, waterfalls coal mine rivers forests and attractions in Tennessee and Kentucky area. I will stay here again. You make your stay what you want it to be. I made my stay here a great one!

Hopefully still working on the place

Inside room was super clean and has been recently remodeled. Next redo outside and clean up used ashtrays and cig butts. Oh and get tvs that work or better directions how to make them work. Have cleaners take old coffee out of coffee maker that was gross

Room was very dirty, shower had hair in it. The room wasn’t swept and there was hair all over the bed and in the towels we had. The exterior of the hotel was also very run down and had cigarette butts and beer bottle caps and trash all over. Definitely recommend finding a different place to stay.
