“Terrible Bed Bugs”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2010

We arrived here late in the middle of the night for stayed little over an hour and a half. Just enough for over 100 bed bug bites.
Attracted to the low $35 rate. Big mistake.
We ended up needing to throw out many items as a result of the infestation. Not happy about that nor the argueing necessary when I explained this to the desk person who said "they cant be resposible if customers bring in the bugs".

In addition, the room was about as ratty and unkept as they come, and the outside of the room had construction equipment, old tires etc scattered about.

This place used to part of the budget inn chain but is no longer. I can only suspect they might of lost their franchise.

There are plenty of other options along this I-95 exit should you wish to do so.

“Now called the Sunset Inn and it's still a dump”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 May 2009
1
person found this review helpful

I'd sleep in my car before I would ever stay at this dump again. It was cheap, so I didn't expect much, but this place was even worse than I expected.
The rooms stink of dampness, even the bed felt damp. I checked the bed before laying down on it making sure everything was clean and didn't see any problems. When I awoke in the morning I was totally grossed out to see the white sheets covered with bugs. It was an infestation. I showered and left immedietley. I could not get out of there quick enough.

“Worst experience over 1500 in theft. No security.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 July 2008

We had a room 4 down from office. The room had no deadbolt on lock so we put a chair against the door since it was 2 am when we checked in. We planned on being gone at 7 am. We stopped here for our 1 year old twins just to get a few hours out of their car seats on way to FL. During the 5 hours at the hotel our car parked right outside door was broke into. They stole our laptop, all chargers for cell phones nintendo ds and such. Took my GPS navigator and even took my daughters feminine pads out of her purse. They also took our twins sunglasses, and all beauty products. Total over 1500 in stuff.

We reported it to manager who called police but said this never happend here. Then manager at hotel was walking around our car with other guests showing people yeah this is van got broke into. Like he was taking tours . This made it worse. We felt violated and I would never recomend this hotel they advertise a 24 hour desk but yet they couldnt see them breaking into our car when it was the 3rd spot from office with all glass doors. They dont have any security cameras. Also they don't change out their key cards its one key card they use for same room all time. We also reported this to their corporate office who says that each hotel is independent. So they don't even stand up for their name. We finally got a response now month later saying we r sorry we can let u stay again at a discount rate. I've seen other reviews since our stay about theft I wish we'd of saw them we'd of never stayed. Worst experience ever!

“Theft of valuable property”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2007

The room was very untidy when I arrived. The night was feeled with loud noizes. Complaints were answered with a "don't bother me" attitude. A large valuable piece of cloth was left, accidentally, behind. After several hours on the road, this was realized. I promptly contacted the front desk. They checked into the matter, confirmed that it was left, but they were more interested in stealing than sending it to me.

Stayed September 2007
