“Couldn't Care Less attitude”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2009
1
person found this review helpful

Fire alarm went off 2am. Evacuated. Desk staff said false alarm so everyone went back to bed. 20mins later fire alarm went off again. Nobody bothered to evacuate. Problem was, it was a real fire. Eventually evacuated and stood outside in cold for an hour. 6am - fire alarm again. Evacuated again. When checking out , was offered no apology and only offered pathetic 10 quid discount when insisting. Desk staff lied about availability of manager. Coward. Higher management promised to deal but never returned calls/emails. At least nobody died, but it was a close thing after they wrongly sent everyone back to bed for a "false" alarm that wasn't. Unforgiveable.

“Do NOT stay here!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 September 2008
3
people found this review helpful

This was the worst hotel experience we have ever had. My family and I stayed there for two nights. Unfortunately, someone in my extended family chose this location.

Just after checking in, we decided to check out the pool. It was small, musty and the smell of dead chlorine was over-whelming. No way was I going to put my infant in there!

Then we head up stairs, which was on a non-smoking floor. That rule was, obviously, never enforced. In my parents room, the shower door was broken and barely hanging on the hinges. Their alarm clock was flashing and we couldn't get it to stop. Our room was off the chart awful! Our sheets had cigarette burns. Our daughter's sheets had lipstick stains. Our alarm clock was broken, too. Our shower had a hole in the side of it AND I walk in to find my husband not alone in the shower...there was a baby ROACH in there with him!!!

Other fun experiences...the police were called to break up a physical fight in the parking lot. Our car alarm was set off the first night. Our hall mates loved their music loud and their bass high. They also liked to party in the hallway, which is probably why the hallway smelled so smokey. There were multiple power outages, at least 6 and there was not a storm in the area. And to top it all of, my husband is a graduate student and needed the internet, but of course it was down. After numerous phone calls to the front desk and their IT provider, the problem was never resolved.

We took pictures for all the other TripAdvisor lovers out there! Go to Memphis, but please, do NOT stay here!

“Good place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2008

people found this review helpful

Most Sleep Inns are the same design. A cozy room, a small frig, a microwave, free wi-fi, nice showers.

This one is a bit off the main I-40 freeway, but easy to find. At the light intersection past it, you could go a few blocks and find some restaurants and stores. This seems to be a quiet place.

The only negative was that the maid had forgotten to put any bath toiletries out, but since I bring my own, that didn't matter much. (I could have gotten them from the front desk if I wanted).

Sleep Inns are not a romantic get-a-way type of place, but good for travelers and families (especially with free continental breakfast at them all).

“Great hotel”

We checked into an econo lodge and promptly checked back out due to the horrible conditions of the hotel. We stayed at this Sleep Inn and it was great! The rooms were comfortable and clean, the staff was great and the location was wonderful. I would definitely stay here again.

  • Liked — it was clean and comfortable and the location was great
  • Disliked — the overnight desk clerk was a little difficult

“Awful Experience”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 May 2007
1
person found this review helpful

Only one pro:
The hotel was easy to find.

Cons:
The non-smoking floor smelled musty, moldy and rank.
The walls are VERY thin.
The light in shower was broken.
The management didn't do anything about the rowdy, drunk college kids who were loud and obnoxious at 4 in the morning.
Empty beer bottles were overflowing in the trash can at the front door - what a great first impression!
The management didn't ask how our stay was.
The sign in the bathroom that said, 'save our planet...' didn't mean a damn thing, as our towels that were hung on the rack (as requested) and new-barely used soaps were replaced everyday.

Don't go there. The place sucked.

Stayed May 2007
