This hotel is literally the dirtiest, smelliest, most disgusting place I have ever stayed. We made the mistake of taking a gamble on the Super 8 on a recent trip to the Big E. Mistake! Even though it's cheap, next time I would pay an extra $20 and stay somewhere which looked like it had been cleaned in the last twenty years. It's in a car park on the side of a busy, main road. Our check in was smooth, the assistant was civil although not friendly and we went down the (smelly) corridor (an odd mixture of stale smoke, dead cat and bleach) to our king size room. The bed was big but the first thing we noticed was the overwhelming smell of stale smoke and urine. It was like someone had peed all over the floor and walls ten years ago and it had been left to fester, only hidden slightly by ten years of smoking in bed (it was a non smoking room). When I went to complain to the guy behind the desk he said that it was probably the air-conditioning unit and we should open a window. Never mind that it was 30 degrees outside and we were on the ground floor somewhere that looked like murderers would be happy to climb through your window and kill you while you slept, and given the state of the hotel, the cleaning staff would probably just shove you under the bed and tell the next guest that the smell of rotting flesh was down to the air conditioning unit. So no new room for us. When I pulled back the sheets to get into bed I noticed some small, black, curly hairs and a blood stain. Yummy. I didn't want any part of my body to touch any part of this room. The shower was adequate, oddly, the sink wasn't in the bathroom with the toilet and shower but in the main room. Breakfast was included and this was ok, can't really complain - cereal, bread and muffins. Coffee from a machine. Again, all while enjoying the special aroma which I haven't smelled before or since, hence I will name it 'Super 8 Smell'.
Please don't stay here, it's not worth it - don't focus on the positive reviews and ignore the negative ones like I did in desperate hope, otherwise you will experience first hand the joys of blood stains, pubes, and Super 8 Smell.
