Budget Inn Is Amazing Value!

Budget Inn was perfectly located, plenty of convenient stores and fast food or restaurants to consider, walking distance to parks and other shopping, the owner was amazing and very hospitable and checked in on us a couple of times each day, I’m a business owner and that kind of hospitality goes a long way, we will definitely be staying again within the next week or two

The hotel for one or two nights is great… after those two days it’s a choice for the costumer

2/10 Poor

Everything about the hotel was fake.
Larry, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was definitely dated, the outlet behind needs repair. The toilet seems to be designed for a kid. Very spacious and had a back patio so that was a plus.

Ramshackle place. Falling apart.

Property was nice enough. There were some sketchy guys hanging out in the parking lot day and night all hours, not always the same guys for the three days we were there. Nothing that I know of happened just seemed sketchy.

Stay was okay. Walls super thin. Could hear everything in the next room over. Needs to be renovated asap. Everything is old and falling apart.
