“BE AWARE.......Very rude, lying and aggressive staff and mangegment!!!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 October 2010

Went to my room and saw that the room hadn't been cleaned, requested very politely for the room to be cleaned. The maid, who had her boyfriend with her, was very upset that she needed to clean the room after 8:30pm. They acted and smelled as if they had been drinking and was intoxicated. I waited in the parking lot while she cleaned the room. When I saw her leaving the room, I went up to the room and received a call from the manager saying if I caused anymore problems, he was going to ask me to leave, he stated that the maid came to him crying and told him I had slammed the door and left. I then went down to the lobby I asked for my money back and he was very rude and said your not getting your money back, the manager was also intoxicated I left immediately feeling taken advantage of and wasn't going to stay around for anymore accusations. I will never stay here again and hope that people reading this will see the scamming and hostel nature of this hotel. This is not a place for a good nights rest.

“Affordable clean accommodation close to downtown.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2010
4
people found this review helpful

Just goes to show how different an event as seemingly straightforward as staying in a motel for a night can be, as it wasn't until after we had stayed here that I manged to look at reviews.
We found the Motel to be most satisfactory, large clean rooms, friendly staff, easy walk to downtown.
This is called Budget Saver Motel and so trim your expectations to be inline with the very reasonable price here.
No wireless internet as yet.

“Not hospitable and stained towels/pillow cases.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 August 2010

It was hard to check in and even harder to check out. Even though we gave them a credit card they wanted a fifty dollar deposit, which we could not get back until the office opened when we were ready to leave (very inconvienent because we are early morning travelers). The towels were horribly stained and there were old blood stains on the pillow cases. We ran out of toilet paper, which was never replaced when they cleaned our room nor were our sheets changed. Our air conditioner quit working. The maintence man said it would be fixed that day, but it never was.

The staff seems to forget they are in the hospitality business and are not hospitable. We were not treated like guest, but low life. We were going to be in town for four days so we rented a weekly room. That must have been our mistake. If they are going for repeat business, they will never make it. We come visit often as we have two sons who live there, but will find other lodging arrangements.

Positive note: The room was clean and nicely remodled.

“Aggressive Pit Bull running loose.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2010
1
person found this review helpful

Today I was walking my dog past this hotel and the manager's pit bull jumped on my retriever mix. I was able to get the pit bull away, but the manager was very rude about my dog being attacked. Thankfully my dog is large, but a smaller one would have been overcome immediately. I live in Coeur d'Alene and didn't actually stay there, but wanted to make everyone aware of the danger that exists. I will tell anyone and everyone to boycott this horrible, horrible motel.

“Beware of scam !”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 June 2010
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed on a Sunday nite after playing golf and decided not to drive back to Spokane. We've stayed there once before..not great but ok and clean for the price.
They have a scam going on. We got checked into a room. There was a hole in the door (almost like a bullet hole) .we noticed it immediately but didn't think too much about it...had a rest...went out for dinner..came back and were sleeping by 9:00 p.m.!! Forgot about reporting the damage to the door. (Actually thought they MUST know about this damage).So we got notification a week or so later charging $ 100 to our credit card to cover the damage to the door!! Phoned...explained...the rudest people I have ever dealt with...the hotel was basically empty but they said that someone had complained about our all nite noisy party!

This is a total scam...I think they check people in and if they report the door...great...if they don't GOTCHA!...we are honest and responsible (older) people. BEWARE of this hotel and it's horrible management.
