This place wouldnt be too bad if the office assistant of the place wasn't the most rude miserable human Ive ever met in my life. I asked to check my heat and they kicked me out and wouldn't even let me speak as he yelled over me and threatened to call the police. Would not come here if you don't want to be treated like dirt!

I stayed here during my divorce many years ago. It’s designed for people in transition. No staff overnight and you can tell hookers are around as well as drug deals. However, it’s cheap and central to a lot of things. It’s not the Marriott and doesn’t claim to be. Better than being homeless in January.

My fiance and I paid 290 dollars a week. Ten of which for wifi that doesn't work at all. It was filthy and full of mice. There are layers and layers of grime on every surface. The toilet seat doesn't stay up. Toilet runs 24 hours a day. The air conditioner filter had two inches of dust built up. The laundry room reeks of BO. The dryers (which cost 1.50) take 3 times to dry your clothes. The sheets are filthy the comforter doesn't fit the bed. There is never anyone in the office making it impossible to get cleaning supplies,vacuum, toilet paper, your mail etc. One man that works there is the most rude and horrible human being you will ever meet. I could go on and on about how disgusting and horrible my stay at the best value inn was. Coming here would be the biggest mistake of your life.

If I give this place a minus 0 I definitely would. I got a room there at the Best Value Inn yesterday afternoon.paid $65, went to my and unpacked.went into the bathroom and immediately noticed that the shower and sink were filthy.there was left over drug paraphernalia still in all the dressers, and the TV wasn't working. Went back to the office to ask for another room, but the guy that runs the place was gone. Tried calling the office to leave a message, but just rang and rang.. for six hours I tried getting in touch with the owner or anyone that worked there.could not take a shower or even watch TV.. Bright and early this morning I went to the office to ask for another room but was told that I should have told him.Swearing up and down he was still there when I went to the room. I feel th

They have bed bugs and rats and the heat doesn't work. There's no staff, no wash clothes, towels and tissues. I had the worst experience ever, I don't know how this is legal or even orating like this. Save your money, it's not worth it. Truthfully my rating for them would have been -10 if that was available
