Categories

Cleanliness
1
Multiple reviews describe rooms as filthy: stained sheets and blankets, dirty floors, carpets turning socks black, mouse droppings, dead fly, visible tar-like stains, and reports of bed bugs and cockroaches — overall extremely poor cleanliness.
Service
7.5
Mixed reports: one reviewer specifically praised Fred (the night manager) as a saving grace, but there are also notes about lack of security and limited management presence. Isolated helpful staff interactions contrast with broader operational issues, so service is rated moderately high relative to other failings.
Location
7
Several reviewers explicitly note the location is quite good or convenient despite property condition; location appears to be a relative positive compared with other aspects.
Room Quality
1
Rooms reported as poorly maintained: holes in doors and ceilings, broken shower knobs, nonfunctional fixtures, paint/fingernail polish marks, construction debris, smelly bathrooms, and general disrepair — very low room quality.
Amenities
2
Amenities are failing or unavailable: pool closed for remodeling, TV not working, A/C controls missing or units noisy/faulty, noisy fridge, and breakfast not used or unappealing — amenities are significantly below expectations.
Value for Money
3
Some guests noted a low nightly rate (e.g., $50), but given the pervasive cleanliness, safety, and maintenance issues, the property represents poor value for money for most travelers.
Food and Beverage
6.9
Breakfast was generally not tried or avoided due to room condition; there are no detailed complaints about food quality itself. With limited direct information, this category is scored above average relative to strongly negative, unsubstantiated areas.
Overall Experience
2
Overall experience is strongly negative across reviews: many guests left early, some had to sleep in their vehicles, safety concerns and severe cleanliness/maintenance problems lead to recommendations to avoid the property.

Pros:

The entire property was disgusting. The rooms were very dirty. TV not working. Sheets and blankets had black tar-like stains on them. Floors dirty. Mouse droppings in the corner by AC/heater unit. People fighting outside, no security. Overall, it needs a new owner or tear down the place.

Pros:

We needed a place to stay for the night llast minute so we booked a room at this motel. We paid $50 for 1 night so it was cheap. But we were stunned at how nasty the room was! There were stains everywhere that you would be scared to touch anything. The white sheets are almost grayish in color. The knobs for the air conditioning were missing so you cannot make any adjustments. Thank goodness we had disinfectant wipes with us. You have to wait for the toilet tank to fill before you can use the faucet as no water will come out.

Pros:

1) Rooms are Dirty, 2) Unsafe, drug junkies roaming around the property 3) Walls are paper thin, you can hear everything in the next room from flushing toilet to chatting 4) Rancid smell in the bathroom 5) Dirty bedsheets 6) Noisy fridge, noisy AC. 7) Some guests were fixing the car in the parking lot at night. 8) Avoid at all costs. You are better off sleeping in the car Avoid, Avoid Avoid. You have been warned.

Pros:

Bedsheets was very dirty, carpet is very dirty and my socks turned black after walking on carpet, saw a dead fly laying on the the bottom of washing basins. The most disgusting hotel room I ever checked in. They should refund me money, because I checked out after two days. They didn’t refund me any money, they still charged full price.

Pros:

This property is not for travelers, most of the current residents are long term low income occupiers. Apartment was filty, under construction and full of insects as cockroaches and bed bugs. I don't recommend this place and should be removed from possibility to be rented at Expedia.

Pros:

Worked in a pinch, they are doing some remodeling from the looks of it so the pool is down, shower wouldn't turn to shower mode and the A/C unit needed to be replaced because the control panel wasn't intact.

Pros:

The room was not cleaned. It have lights not working, paint or fingernail polish over stuff in several locations. Large holes in the bath ceiling. The last draw was bugs on the bed. I have several photos of the room. Can I be contacted by your customer service? It was the worst room I’ve ever rented. It was so bad I left and had to sleep in my truck.

When we saw bullet holes in the wall, we left.
Pros:

Farmington Inn in Farmington, New Mexico was the only available option for our stay in a two hour radius, we drove down, and when we arrived things looked ok, it was strange that the receptionist/office was at a small window with a small slot to pass documents, but OK, it was late-ish.

we checked in, found parking and of course the elevator is not working, and by the looks of it, it has not worked for years.

the property was not clean, but also OK, the rooms might still be OK, but of course they were not, other peoples hair in the bed (on the sheets as well as the cover) and on the towels.

the room reeked of marijuana, it "felt" unsafe, and then we saw the bullet holes in the wall, with a convenient arrow pointing to it with the text "FPD" which must have meant Farmington Police Department.

car alarms where going off a few times the few minutes we were there, there was a sketchy looking individual obseriving us from the moment we had parked and entered our room, this individual was up on the same floor as we had our room.

we checked out after having used the restroom and observed the uncleanliness of the room as well as the bullet hole.

I did not take any pictures because my concern switched to the safety of myself and my spouse.

do not book this hotel.

Horrible Room!
Pros:

This hotel was awful. The room was filthy, stains on chair, bedspread etc. Chipped and marked up paint. Missing cover on bathroom fan. Literally trash and dust piles under furniture. Window drape was filthy and has holes in it. Headboard was for a king but bed was queen. I actually saw roaches!! I took photos of all of these and more. Hotels.com should NOT A:LLOW this hotel i their network. The room was NOTHING like the room photo what was posted and advertised

Pros:

Bed bugs, dust and mouse poop everywhere. The surrounding area is covered with junkies asking for money or drugs. The pool even was filled with probably bed bug infested beds and sheets.

Pros:

The condition of the property was poor. The room smelled of cigarette smoke and musty. The floors were dirty. There were bugs in the room. There was an old mold stain, still leaking water on the ceiling of the shower. The towels smelled of mildew. I'm being generous and understanding with a 2 star review.
