Categories

Cleanliness
3.5
Repeated complaints about dirty common areas, hairs on sheets, wet floors, dingy towels and an overall need for a deep cleaning; multiple guests described rooms as unclean or shabby.
Service
9
Consistently praised front desk and staff as friendly, welcoming and accommodating (including pet-friendly service); service quality is a clear bright spot across reviews.
Location
8.5
Multiple guests cited excellent convenience (next to US23, close to restaurants like McDonald’s); some guests noted noise from highway/train if in rooms facing road, but location is overall a strong positive.
Room Quality
5.5
Mixed comments: some rooms had comfortable beds and a good Jacuzzi, while others were dated, shabby, damp or had maintenance issues (doors not locking, poor flushing toilets); overall borderline average to below-average quality.
Amenities
6.5
Limited but some positives (roomy units, occasional jacuzzi tub); parking constraints and rundown elements reduce the amenity score.
Value for Money
6.5
Several guests called the property ‘decent for the price’ but many felt the rundown condition and cleanliness issues undermined value; overall value sits slightly above average given the low price points mentioned.
Food and Beverage
4
Multiple complaints about breakfast: poor selection, disorganization, and very bad coffee; F&B is a notable weakness.
Overall Experience
7.7
Mixed overall: strong, repeatedly noted service and a very convenient location lift many stays, but significant cleanliness, maintenance and breakfast issues left several guests unhappy — net experience slightly positive due to staff and location.

An adequate stay, at best.
Pros:

It was super convenient, next to US23. They welcomed my beloved Golden Retriever, and I deeply appreciate that. Clean linens including the bed. Staff were friendly.

Cons:

The entire property is dated and worn. It needs updating desperately. The common areas were dirty. Morning coffee was the worse I've ever experienced. It just felt like a single star property. Unfortunate because it has a lot of good things going for it.

Pros:

Decent for the price.

Cons:

Vacuuming the rooms and hallways would go a long way. Our room was directly above the highway and train so it was really hard to sleep.

UGH!
Pros:

The front desk gentlemen was extremely pleasant and very accommodating.

Cons:

The entire facility is in need of a DEEP CLEANING. Similar to other guests that stayed at this facility, the room was NOT clean. And yes, when I lifted the bed covering there were hairs on the sheet. Du to the hour, and other hotels looked at, this was the only one with rooms. I could not sleep and stayed on the edge of the bed until we checked out a few hours later.

The room was nice and comfy. The jacuzzi tub was amazing with really good jets. The staff was friendly.
Pros:

It was comfortable and convenient. Everyone was friendly. The rooms were big.

Cons:

Not a lot of parking in the evening as there are a lot of work trucks. Breakfast was okay but not much of a selection.

Glad to get out of there, sorry we booked there
Pros:

Evening clerk, (woman) was the only thing decent.

Cons:

Abandoned cars in the parking lot-flat tires. Room floors and surfaces soaking wet. Clerk said it was condenstion. Offered a new room but we opted for towels to dry everything. Continental breakfast was almost nothing. Morning clerk left a sign on the desk leaving their cell phone number to call if we needed anything. Towels were thread bare and dingy, yellowed. Toilet barely flushed. This place it the pits. Never again at a Quality Inn.

Would not stay here again
Pros:

Location was the only good thing

Cons:

Rooms were shabby - would of taken very little maintained to make a huge difference in the appearance of these room - doors to the outside were not locked so anyone could walk in. Air conditioning worked but didn’t pull the humidity out of the room so everything felt damp.

Nice people, but you have to do something about your mice problem even if you minimize it a little bit but mice are too
Pros:

The people that worked there were nice

Cons:

There are too many mice there I know mice is hard to get rid of, but I can't stay in a hotel that has that many mice coming from room to room. Me and my husband moved twice and both times mice ran out of our room.

Pros:

The only thing that was decent was the breakfast.

Cons:

I was unsatisfied with the cleanliness and upkeep of my stay. I want a full reimbursement for how unsanitary my room was. I left a review on Google and they removed my review. I will not EVER GO BACK TO THIS ESTABLISHMENT!
This was the review I left for them below,

Dear Quality Inn & Suites Management,
I am writing to formally report a highly unsatisfactory experience during my recent stay and to request a full reimbursement.
On the evening of July 3, my brother-in-law reserved a room for my wife and me, in addition to his own booking. We also had a separate reservation for July 4 through July 5, which was transferred to the same room (Room 235) upon arrival.
After settling in, we discovered serious cleanliness and maintenance issues. When we opened the pull-out futon, we found what appeared to be rat feces. Additionally, there were visible mold spores and burn holes in the bed linens. These conditions are unacceptable and pose clear health concerns.
I immediately reported the issue to the front desk. The staff member on duty responded promptly and came to inspect the room herself. While I appreciate her professionalism, she was unable to relocate us due to the hotel being fully booked.
To make matters worse, my brother-in-law, who had a separate room, also found rat feces in his bathroom. Furthermore, the pool was closed due to poor maintenance and lack of cleaning, along with other unspecified issues.
As an independent business owner and a former guest of your establishment, I am extremely disappointed in the condition of the property and the lack of proper upkeep. This was, without question, one of the worst hotel experiences I have encountered.
Given the severity of these issues, I am requesting a full reimbursement for both nights of our stay, including the room booked on our behalf by my brother-in-law. I also have photo evidence documenting the conditions of the room and would be willing to provide this upon request.
