“Ok for the price, but...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2009

This isn't a three star hotel as the rating would imply. It is an average, value priced motel. My review compares this motel with other motels of the same class. We stayed one night.

This motel is about what I'd expect for a value priced motel. Nothing fancy. Clean but worn. Low quality beds, bedding and linens. Simple but decent breakfast was included. Better than expected coffee in the breakfast room. Convenient location. Poor soundproofing. Prompt, friendly service.

Details: The bed was very springy/bouncy but fairly comfortable. The pillows were horrible. The sheets were thin but clean. The threadbare blanket needs to be replaced. There was only one nightstand. There was only one bedside reading light and it did not work. The sink and toilet were clean and worked properly. We didn't use the tub/shower, but it looked clean. The towels met expectations. The TV worked well and had plenty of stations.

Pros: Price. Clean. Coffee. Most things worked well.
Cons: Horrible pillows. Broken bedside light. Little to no soundproofing.

“Terrible experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2008

We just returned from our stay at this Super 8 and we will never stay there again. First of all, I want to say that we are not picky people with unrealistic expectations, we knew this was a budget motel. However, the room we stayed in smelled so bad that upon coming home the odor remained on us and we had to wash all of our clothes-- even the ones we did not unpack. The whole place could use a good cleaning. But the worst part of the weekend was a young woman who was working the desk. Every encounter we had with her was unpleasant. She was curt and unsmiling and refused to accomodate any request we had.

The morning we were leaving we asked her for one extra hour to check out (at noon rather than 11:00). In a very rude tone of voice she refused. It would be understandable if the motel was busy, but it was not. When we checked out my husband tossed the room key card on the desk in front of me (I swear, he just tossed it). Then, after we asked her for the manager's contact information she accused my husband of throwing the key card at her and said she was going to "make a note of it." I think, of course, that she did this to cover herself (make us appear at fault) since we intended to complain to the manager. She seemed to be a very unhappy young woman, and her attitude soured our weekend.

I recommend spending a little extra money and getting a different hotel if you stay in Morris.

  • Liked — We had a bed to sleep in and the roof didn't leak
  • Disliked — Bad customer service and the room smelled bad

“Smoky outdated Redneck Room”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2008

I went on-line to look for a whirlpool suite for a weekend getaway. I came across the photos of the Jungle Suite and decided it looked nice for the price. Vacationers beware, as this is a false advertisement. The room was filthy, carpet visably not vacummed, the corners had cobwebs and the room smelled worse than my clothes after 2 nights straight of partying in a bar before they went smoke free. I wouldn't have felt comfortable walking in bare feet across the floor as it was that dirty. I asked for a refund within thirty minutes and here's the funny part...I was told I would have to pay a $25.00 cleaning fee. If you are looking for a hotel where you can feel at ease, this is not it.

“Stay here only if you have no other choice”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 October 2006
1
person found this review helpful

We were in town for a wedding and unfortunately, we had to stay here because all other hotel rooms in Morris were sold out due to some car show/convention.

The rooms were very dark and smoky, as I don't think there is an option to have a non-smoking room. Maybe some of the other rooms were better but our room was in desperate need of an update and airing out. The decor and furniture was from the 70's and the carpet probably hasn't been updated since.

We only stayed for two nights but our hanging clothes smelled smoky once I got home and unpacked them. I've never had that happen before in all my travels. I joked that we probably got second-hand smoke just from sleeping on the sheets. The carpet is brown and gross and desperately needs replaced. I wore my shoes the whole time I was in the room and kept them next to my bed so I wouldn't have to walk to the bathroom in bare feet.

Also, since our room had a door to the outside, we could hear everything. Both mornings we were "pleasantly" awakened at 6:00am by people revving their loud engines and tuning/fixing their cars for the car show. This went on for about 45 minutes before they left. This is obviously not the hotel's fault, but be prepared that if you are a light sleeper, you will not want to stay here because you can hear everything outside your door.

Overall, if you are just looking for a bed and a bathroom and don't mind a smoky room, this hotel will do. If you are looking for a comfortable, clean room where you're not afraid to walk on the floor without shoes, you should look elsewhere.

  • Liked — convenient location to freeway
  • Disliked — Dirty and smoky
  • Tips/Secrets — Don't get a room with a door to the outside.
