I stayed at the Budget Inn overnight and I suppose I can sum it up by saying it was OK. I liked how big it was, I liked the bed except the part where I found popcorn under the blanket. The room was warm and had a fridge and microwave as well as cable and free wifi which is nice.... More

Seems I stayed in a different motel than the rest of the reviews. Everyone we come in contact with at the motel was very helpful. Rooms were clean. Furniture in good condition, everything worked. Excellent stay for the $$. Close to PIR. Definetly a "two thumbs up". Motel in a safe area of town. Can't say enough good stuff about... More

This place was very cheap. As you might expect from the name, that is it's best quality. The room was very basic, but comfortable. It had a fridge and microwave, which was nice. Unfortunately, even though we had a non-smoking room, the room smelled faintly like cigarettes. The entire hallway outside the room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The hotel... More

Way too far from downtown and airport. Rooms are bare bones. Wooden furniture is all chipped and scratched up. Bathroom caulking has mold all the way around. Leather desk chair had ripped seat. Bedding had cigarette burns and pills had stains on them. There was no alarm clock. The phone was missing half the buttons on it. The bedroom window... More

The first room I was given the toilet and telephone did not work. There were two used hand towels hanging on the shower curtain rod. After notifying the front desk clerk, he was very accomodating and moved me to another room. The door on the second room was not closed when I went to it, so I was a little... More

The hotel's exterior was pretty much as expected, the streets & carpark were clean if somewhat deserted. The lobby was clean as was the room. It even had a fridge which surprised me. It's... More
