There was nothing to like about this place. It smelled of cig smoke and dirty, my appliances in my room did not work { fridge, tv, safe, blow dryer }, breakfast was horrible, waffle maker had grey spoiled liquid come out, yogurt was expired but frozen, oj had a hint of yellow and all water, shows the pool on the website it sits empty with nasty algae water on the bottom so no pool, parking lot is over grown, someone lives in a camper in the parking lot who watches ppl come and go, someone tried to break into my room { thank God for deadbolt ]. Being a female I would not stay here alone. I was there for work and it was cheaper, next time I'll sleep in my car. Homeless ppl coming and going asking for money. Yea not a safe place for children with the amt of mold. I sent a email to the owners of the quality inn but they just ignore so obviously they know what is going on here. 140$ l pd for a 12 hr stay leaving me to use a shower and sleep on top the covers with the hear cranked because of bed bugs. I stayed only because they refused to refund my money if I left and I couldn't afford that. So my advise, stay away. This place needs to be shut down

This property should be condemned! Back door lock broke, big hole in wall, rooms stunk to old BO, the one bed was not made and looked like it was slept in, on 2 pillow vs 4 shown on website and crunched up like they were slept on, foot prints on bed, dirty sheets on the other made bed, air was on with window open to air out, touched the screen and screen fell out. Appalled!

The main reason I chose the Quality Inn was because is was a hotel that is nationwide and offered an indoor and breakfast. The motel was a franchise I am sure. Said the e desk was 24hr and Everytime I needed something I had to call a phone # posted at the desk. The pool was not in working order and not in use, and there was a very limited breakfast the first day. And no breakfast the second day . Had bagel no toaster, waffle syrup but no waffles the juice machine u had to run several cups through to get the juice flowing, coffee was ice cold, cereal had 2 diff types in same dispenser with only almond milk available. Very disappointed and when I called the # at the desk no one answered or returned my call when I left a msg. The room looked ok when arrived but later realized that the beds were off, one had one mattress on wooden box the other bed was 3 mattresses on the floor. One bed hard and other bed sink to the middle. Went in to take a shower and noticed a quarter size hole inside the shower that could've very well been a peep whole. We stuffed it with tissue. The towels were yellow and dingy.. overall just very disappointed and know why the hotel was empty. If I would've known the pool was closed and really wasn't a free breakfast available I would have chose a different hotel. I thought that quality inn was a good place being known nationwide but I would not recommend this place to anyone because of the misleading advertisement and the whole in shower was weird

Back door can't be locked, dirty towels and wash cloths when we checked in. Breakfast is virtually nonexistent and that which is available, you're concerned if it has expired or not. Beds are terribly uncomfortable and the pillows are barely thicker than a towel. For the price you're paying, cleanliness should be the bare minimum.

After the first night we started itching and after the second night of not getting any sleep from itching we went to another hotel. No one was at the desk and when you called the number that was left there to call nobody answered. Left a message and was never contacted. Walls had wallpaper pealing off and vent grates missing. Continental breakfast area was dirty. I have been at other Quality Inns over the years and never been to one this disappointing.

The pool was not working and wasnt told until i checked in. It was one of the main reason why I booked. The breakfast was slim to nothing had to go and get breakfast somewhere else. Will not recommend to stay there.

One and done
First room dirty. Second room after complained not dirty but worn down. Coffee might have been left from the breakfast the day before as it was cold. Did not try food since we saw bagels still out when we checked in the night before. Grounds were gross, apparently there is no rule on dog clean up cause there was poop everywhere we tried to walk with our dogs and pick up after them. Cash only charges for dogs would have been good to know. No card machine? Odd when square readers are everywhere. Friendly staff. Property needs work and better cleaning

This motel is absolutely horrible. It's completely run down and in serious need of basic maintenance and a serious deep cleaning. There were "No Smoking" signs prominently posted throughout the property, (including in the lobby, hallways, stairwells, and in guest rooms); however, clearly smoking is happening everywhere as it reeked of stale cigarette smoke everywhere, including in our room.  Trash cans were overflowing, the carpets were dirty and in need of replacement, the bathroom floor was dirty upon our arrival, the curtains in our room were nasty, and I could go on and on. Worst of all, we witnessed a drug deal happening in the room next door. Do NOT stay here!  bzamzow@thezap.com

Shower wasn't cleaned, ring around the tub and toilet was no better. I will never stay there again and I will inform everyone of their inhospitality.

The lot and building are in disrepair. The inside lobby smelled awful, the lobby. Desk etc. Were dirty and the worker didnt look much better. The pool was not working either. I chose not to stay because of the filth and the worker would not release me from paying for one night. We went down the road and had a great experience. What an awful representation of Quality Inns and i got stuck with a bill as well!!

DONT STAY HERE, the place STINKS horrible, mold in walls. Strong smell of smoke. When checking in no one was at the front desk we had to call a number for someone to come to the front. The room was disgusting. The bed and towels had stains. BIG STAINS. Dirty. The shower was so dirty. The fridge had black stains on it too. As what we can tell those rooms got clean months ago. The Pool is closed. And with locks. Bedding sheets were just nasty. Don’t stay here.

Sketchy
Don’t get cheaper hotel, even in small towns. First, they didn’t let me cancel due to snowstorm, so I drove an hour to this hotel. I went in, can it reeked of smoke. Now I smell like smoke, Then there was a screw intentionally wedged into my deadbolt creating a barrier making it incapable to lock. I ran with fear.

Lobby smelled like smoke upon entering. Room was dirty. Food cheerios and other old food pilled under the recliner. Coffee was cold at 8:00am. Hot water for tea was cold. TV was blaring in office when we came to dining area. In fairness the guy did jump up and go to make more but we had to get on the road. Obviously it hadn’t been checked on since it was made. They say you get what you pay for. In this case you get less than you pay for.

This experience was very disappointing. From the very strong odors drifting into our room, to the duct tape on the shower, the door that did not lock, and only 1 pillow for 2 on a king bed plus a few more unfortunate situations we would not recommend staying here.

Not as advertised
Advertises indoor pool and hot tub... Not available. Wanted to do a bubble bath, since couldn't soak in hot tub but the tub wouldn't fill because the stopper didn't seal. No blow dryer to dry hair and it's cold out. Provided a bar of hand soap, lotion and conditioner, but no shampoo, had to use hand soap bar.

Minocqua clean
The condition of the hotel needs improvement. Exterior needs weeds removed. Bathroom needs caulking update lighting fixed. No screen on the window. Someone had opened the window and did not close. There were many bugs in the room when we arrived to our room. Rooms need better cleaning; vacuuming under and behind the furniture.
