There was NOTHING acceptable abt Rm № 304. The below were observed deficies and challenges: 1) The Clock Radio was NOT plugged in nor set. 2) The Microwave was NOT plugged. 3) The WiFi was NOT working. It was being worked on Hoever. This issue was very significant bc I called 3 days ahead, talked w Front Desk staff, to confirm that ESPN and family networks were available and operating. I was told YES - "March Madness" 4) The Toilet Seat loose. It needed tightening. Which I did. 5) The Hotel Back Entrance bottomed out my Cadillac DeVille's suspension. 6) Rm № 304's A/C was non-opetational. Once plugged in and turned on. Its air flow caused me to cough. The Hotel staff did replace the A/C after my numerous PROTESTATION and INSISTENCE. Even after the A/C's replacement. The environmental concerns were Extremely High. My honored guest has ALLERGIES and ASTHMA. Thus a sanitized and fresh room environment is a MUST. 7) The room's window view was of a nearby junk yard. 8) The ACCEPTABLE MAIN entrance off the main road was accessible via paved path btwn the Burger King and Advanced Auto Supplies stores. FTR, there are seven other observed decencies. BUT bc I cannot copy them this list is INCOMPLETE. I WILL NEVER TRUST THE OYO Hotel brand. Thankfully, I arrived and signed in before my friend. She has allergies and asthma challenges. This stay would have caused her severe physical challenges. And consequently ruined the purpose for the trip - Rest and Relaxation for us both.

This property looks like an abandoned building from street view. No proper signage idendifying the property. Most rooms have inoperable furniture, drawers are broken and not usable. Refrigerators are nasty with roach residue. Therefore, rooms are infested with roaches. Will never stay again.

Hotel is extremely run down and has no signage. Appears they just took it over from another hotel. It is way in the back behind other businesses and parking was crazy. No lines and cars just parked haphazardly. Walked in and had to ask if I was at the right hotel. After check in I went to the room in a horrible, dirty elevator with all floor tiles cracked Once in room I found mold all over the bathroom walls. Smelled of cigarettes everywhere. We came right back down and I was surprised the women at front desk refunded us. They were surprised by mold but were very apologetic. You get what you pay for. Honestly this may be a rent by the hour hotel at this point.

This was the most nastiest and trashiest place I’ve ever been! The staff was very nice in trying to get a refund made and helping find other places to stay! It wasn’t the staff, but it was HORRIFYING! It completely turned my stomach and I made it VERY clear I was NOT staying there! The worst thing I’ve ever seen!

If I could give a zero star i would, NO sign saying hotel anywhere on the building. Homeless people sat outside, I was not prepared to leave my vehicle, or myself at that “hotel”. I’ve stayed in many hotels over the years, this is by far the most unsafe I have felt and I didn’t even go in! And I had to leave at 430am and would not have got any sleep due to worry.. don’t book here

I would say that the person at the front desk was awesome however, I definitely saw a bug in the room and the room was in need of painting. There were white paint patches all over the walls and pictures missing. However, if you need a cheap place to stay, here it is. Definitely a no for me. If I had seen pictures, I would have never came.

Photo's were misleading.The room was dirty. There was a tile missing above the shower exposing the ceiling. There were dead and live cockroaches. The door latch was missing, it seemed to have been ripped off the wall. The remote would not work for the TV, front desk staff did not have a solution. There is no signage on the outside of this building saying what hotel it is. This place should not be open.

Pictures are deceiving. Hotel is filthy, outdated, and honestly very sketchy. Our room smelled like Mold and Mildew. The carpet had some huge purple stain on it, the bathroom door looked like someone tried to punch a hole through it, and the toilet wasn't bolted down. Staff was friendly but we won't be staying here ever again.

Cigarette smoke in room, room is to be NO smoking. Girl cleans room has no towels and wash clothes until they do the laundry at after 100pm. Had to get them after 5pm from the front desk. Filthy rugs in room and hall ways The clerk at front desk upon check says free breakfast is from 6-10 and consists of cereal and milk, sometimes danish and maybe grits in the back but there was no food at 8:00am. Free breakfast ran out at 8:00 and they just close up Cold coffee. No spoons or napkins no anything. Pool was empty No table and chairs in what was suppose to be dining area. We paid for 2 queen beds and breakfast for 3 people. Toilet is not bolted to floor and rocks back and forth There is a hole in the bathroom door and would not close and open The mirrored closest door would not open or close. No ice bucket in the room People smoking pot in parking lot and at the entrance driveway, right a the main entrance in view of the staff! There were envelopes of coffee in the room but no coffee pot anywhere. This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at and I have been traveling for 50 years!

Lots of homeless people hanging around
I used to live in Rome and the hotel was a Baymont. I thought it would be basically the same just a different name. I arrived and there were at least 7 to 8 homeless people either lying on the ground or standing begging for a cigarette right by the entrance. One couple was actually on the ground kissing! My husband wanted me to get a refund but my reservation was non refundable. I talked with rhe clerk about the hotel losing money because of the homeless and her response was OH THEY'RE HARMLESS...i was not afraid but it did make they hotel look bad. The inside looked ok but the carpets in the hallway needed vacuuming AND a good cleaning. The room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable. Get rid of the loitering and clean the carpets and i would give an 8 but ONLY because room was nice i will rate it a 5.

Not the best
It was suppose to be a non smoking room and there was clearly a smoke smell in the room as well as a cigarette burn hole in the blanket. However, the desk clerk good about changing our room. There were stains on the carpet; mold under the rim of the sink; broken tile in the foyer; the smoke detector was missing.

If you stay here and use a credit or debit card. They will charge your card even after you leave. I have called at least 20 times trying to find out why my card is constantly being charged after i have checked out and at home.

The staff was friendly and helpful! The bed was comfortable, also had comfy pillows. The room was over all clean except for the stained up carpet... it was gross! I wore my bedroom shoes to walk around the room. Renovations have begun, but far from completed. The pool needs to be drained. It makes the property look run down more than it is. Breakfast was available but not stocked at 8 am.. the coffee was cold :( the worst part was the TV programming. I guess they use something like a fire stick in the rooms, but the signal would go down after 20 minutes of watching a movie or anything... So frustrating. I would not recommend this hotel as is unless you are in a pinch like I was. It was the only thing available that weekend in Rome. Staff was great tho, so that's a plus! I would stay here once renovations are complete if they get decent TV programming available, like Direct TV or Cable.
