The staff were so sweet and even checked on if me and my travel partner were satisfied with the room. But the shower was broken and the walls are so thin everytime someone went for a smoke break it sounded like they were standing in my room. So if your a loud sleeper and just want a cheap bed for a night this place is nice. The beds were soft and comfy and the room was extremely clean!

The staff were very nice. The room was bare-bones but we were comfortable. It was in a easy to get into the downtown area. We were there for a DPAC concert. If you're not picky and want an economical place to stay for a night or two, this could work.

The outside doesn’t look so pleasing. The room I had looked wonderful. The price point it was above expectations. There was a disturbance with sketchy. Yet, it had nothing to do with us. We slept well. It was very clean. Staff was very friendly.

Okay I was concern on the reviews and the location but I was surprised the room was actually clean and nice, it’s been updated. I will be staying here again next year due to dance competition! The night and morning front desk were very nice. For the price you can’t go wrong!

My stay at the Budget Inn was fantastic. It looks a little rough on the outside but the room was very clean and the staff were wonderful. I didn’t have any quarters and I was in desperate need for a water and the manager gave me the quarters I needed to get it. That’s above and beyond service and I was very appreciative. The only con I had was that the towels were really thin. Other than that everything was great! I would definitely stay here again!!!

This was a clean room efficient stay. The staff was helpful and courteous. The property is old and janky looking but the room I had was just fine for a one night shower and sleep stay. No frills, but i was surprises to see a microwave and refrigerator. There was not many channela on the TV. Overvall I'm satisfied with the quality of room for the money I paaid. I would stay again if I just needed a simple one night stay.
