“Misrepresented and disgusting”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2010

This was advertised in the discount hotel/motel guide (available at fast food and convenience stores) as recently renovated. That could be true if "recent" means about 1950's!! The lobby smelled of smoke (the staff was smoking, even tho there were no smoking signs). The room was dirty and beat up, with torn lampshade, and only the barest essentials--actually not even that if you consider there were no towels. If it weren't late at nite and our being tired, we would have left and gone elsewhere.

“Very nice stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 June 2009

I have seen great changes in this motel since the last time that i stayed there. They have done remodeling of the rooms and have cleaned up the hallways and have gotten rid of alot of the trouble making people that were staying there. If you havent tryed this motel lately you should give it a try.

“Do Not Under Any Circumstances Stay Here If You Fear Your Life!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2008

This place i horrible. My family booked this with a tour and had no idea of the quality of the place. we got there around 12:00 at night and the halls were littered with shady looking characters. the first room we got in was completely broken. the walls were teared down, the furniture was upturned and the window was broken in to. We told the front desk and they got us another key. The second room we got in to already had people from the same party in it! We told them and again they gave us another key. The third room had girls changing in it. Our tour leader was getting pissed so the fourth room he checked himself to find an Asian couple in it. Things were getting pretty ridiculous so we decided to head to the tour bus. While my father and the leader of the tour went to settle things with the management and get their refunds back so we could go to another hotel, they sat in the lobby. While sitting in the lobby they noticed all of a sudden they started to itch really badly. it turns out there were some sort of insects in the furniture causing them to scratch helplessly. As my dad attempted to get his refund a middle aged Latino man about 40 years old approached him and told him to step outside.

unless you want a similar experience never stay here!

“Drunks at the Wellesley Inn”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2007

This was the WORST experience ever. The place is dirty and disgusting. The halls smell like urine. There were drunks wandering the halls from the time we arrived (9pm) until at least 3am. Many unsavory characters hanging out in the parking lot all night. There were multiple parties with yelling and banging going on until 3am. I was honestly scared that either my room or my car would be broken into that night.

The phone was disconnected, and the non-smoking room wreaked of smoke with burn marks throughout the room. The pool area was loaded with trash and used mattresses/furniture.

I can not believe this is a national brand hotel, part of La Quinta. The 'free breakfast' consisted of coffee and stale bread that you could toast in a toaster that was placed 40 feet away (and had never been cleaned).

“This should not be a 3 star”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2007

The room I was placed in had a 12 in hole behind the door, cigarette burns in the comforter, stains all over the floor carpet, the sofa was so dirty that it looked like it had survived a 50 year battle with spills. There were numerous places on the wall where someone had used plaster to cover up past holes. The front desk tried to claim that they had accidently placed us in a room that was being renovated but I just couldn't see that. I told them I wanted a refund and had to stay elsewhere. This property should be closed for health and safety violations--I'm sure an inspector could find some reason why they should be closed if you saw the condition of the room and its furniture. I have never been in such a terrible establishment.
