“Dirty Water Cascading from Bathroom Above to Ours Below--Gross!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 August 2009
1
person found this review helpful

I was so excited to stay in this place because when we first arrived, I liked the parking garage all tucked away beneath the rooms, and the wooden siding of the '70s-style building. (Hey, we all like different things. I like '70s architecture.) There were friendly people in the hallways who held open doors for us as we brought up our luggage. The rate was great, especially for having a bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchenette and a separate living room/TV room.

I smelled a moldy smell in the lving room dresser as I was unpacking clothing and just sort of resolved not to use that particular drawer with its bottom sagging from water damage. No big deal.

But then my husband pointed out the living room couch to me. Wow. It looked like they hadn't cleaned it or reupholstered it for maybe 20 years. It was full of holes and stains and I imagined scabies crawling all over anyone who sat on it. It looked really dangerous. I'm not saying it was, but it looked very dirty.

I thought, well, OK, so we won't sit on the couch.

But then, while I was continuing to unpack (ever the optimist), I hear the sound of water running in the bathroom above ours. OK, noisy pipes in an old building. Don't be a princess. Deal with it.

But then I heard water cascading into our bathtub. (!) I ran into the bathroom to see a good-sized clot of nickel-sized holes in a sagging, re-re-plastered, stained corner of our bathroom ceiling. Water from the bathroom upstairs (their toilet? their tub?) was cascading down into our tub.

Alright, if the building is structurally unsound, maybe we shouldn't stay more than one night. We'd been driving all day and so stayed the night, fitfully sleeping in what felt like a not very clean bed and got outta there in the morning.

Oh, and there was only a very flimsy door with one very skimpy lock on it. Other locks had been torn asunder/broken apart.

I mentioned the ceiling leak to the woman at the front desk the next morning. She seemed nonchalant and not particularly apologetic. Hmmph.

We left.

“Plenty of space to spread out”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2008

The directions in the Roomsaver discount book werent quite right but we arrived at the motel after a circuitous route.
The front desk lady was helpful and very friendly helping with directions to the supermarket and warning us that it wasnt a walk away even though it was only 4 blocks distance.
The room was very spacious with a small kitchenette but no cooking utensils ,plates or eating utensils which seemed odd given that the room had a stove with four elements for cooking.
The site was close to the freeway and also the airport.It was quiet and had an underground garage.

  • Liked — Spacious room
  • Disliked — Kitchenette without cooking utensils,plates etc.

“Avoid at all costs”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2008

people found this review helpful

We recently stayed at America's Best Value Inn and Suites and would not recommend it to our worst enemy. First off, there is no parking, either out in front of the hotel, or in the designated parking area. Second, if you are the type of person who uses towels and would like clean ones, this is not the hotel for you. Not once in our entire stay did we receive towels from Housekeeping. When we went to ask for them, we had to track down Housekeeping ourselves because the desk clerks were too busy (no customer was at the desk!!!). And finally, to top everything else off, we had something stolen from our room. The manager on duty said there was nothing she could do, Housekeeping said they didnt take it. Well someone on their staff did and with that being the case, they should have found someway to rectify the situation. As it was, they said "Sorry we cant help you" and we were dismissed like pouty kids. There is NO WAY I will ever stay at a Hotel affiliated with this one and there is NO WAY I will ever book through Hotels.com again

“Reasonably priced suites w/kitchen”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2007
3
people found this review helpful

Clean rooms, kitchen with sink, fridge and stove available in our suite, two bedrooms, very friendly and helpful staff, waffles included in the breakfast. Larry, the van driver, led us to the rental car agency and on the return trip offered to take us to a restaurant-wonderful man. This hotel is not convenient to restaurants if you're walking except for a deli across the street. When we stayed they were having the interior redone and the paint did smell somewhat but not in our rooms. My wife and son had a problem adjusting the water temperature in the shower though I managed ok. Heat was only piped into one bedroom but this wasn't a problem. A 24 hour shuttle is available. For a budget hotel, especially for four people, I found this to be satisfactory and would stay here again just to be close to the airport for an early flight.

“Only if you have to”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 August 2007
2
people found this review helpful

I hope to never have those experiences again. The first night, they did not have my reservation. Check in took forever and parking was chaotic. Clerks just kept saying they were sorry.

When I returned from my trip for another night stay, I could not get my car from the parking because someone was parked in front of it.The next morning the desk had to wake up the guest to have him move his car.

Breakfast was toast and nothing more.
The pool had only a little water and was scummy.

Suite had a refrigerator but not one dish or pan.
