I didn’t like anything at all. There was a spider in the corner of the room. The beds were uncomfortable. I found a finger stent beside my bed and threw it away. I originally was up in PA for work and booked my stay for the 22nd through the 25th of November well I ended up getting laid off the 23rd and wasn’t able to get a refund back for the unstayed nights which I disagree with.

The manager was kind, but that didn’t make up much for the smell of mustiness when walking into the room. Spiders lived in their webs in the corners. Bathroom door wouldn’t close due to warping and loose veneer. We registered two guests, but there was only one towel and one wash cloth. No shampoo. Thin walls meant the loud arguing neighbors keep us awake most of the night.

My husband and I have been staying at the Budget Lodge since July 3rd, and we absolutely love it. It is ran by Bishop Ramsey who has been more than hospitable, understanding, and accommodating. The hotel used to have a horrible reputation and in the past 5 years he has completely turned this place around under his ownership. He is a great man and is doing great things for the community and anyone who stays here. Id also like to mention there is a beautiful Cristian chapel right next to the hotel, in which he gave us a tour of, and it had nothing but beautiful vibes. I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anybody who is looking to save a couple bucks and still get a quality experience all around. We have stayed at several hotels in our travels the past few months, and this hotel by far is the cleanest, and safest feeling establishment we have stayed at. We are staying another week and have made our room as personalized as we can and Bishop Ramsey has not one issue with us doing so. 5 stars all day long 😀!!!

GREAT HOME AWAY FROM HOME!
The manager/owner was very accommodating to us! He is very kind, personable and made us feel like we were right at home! We wouldn't stay anywhere else after our experience with the Budget Lodge and the owner! As long as he's in charge, we would be there!

The Heater did not work, therefore it was quite cold at night. Also the bed was not comfy and I got pain in my back from it. There were nearly no grounded power sockets in the whole room to properly charge my devices. Also i was charged more mony, than written in the Expedia offer.

Absolutely loved our stay there. The owner is incredibly kind and went above and beyond our expectations. He talked with me and did all he could to make sure we were satisfied with our room. The property and room are very cozy and cute for the price. We shall definitely spend more nights in the future here.

Very dissatisfied.
This was the worse stay ever. First, I ordered two rooms which cost $148.00. When I got there, they only had record of one room which cost $89.00. The second room we had to reserve with them. First off, the second room was $82.00. They then proceeded to write down the credit card number, expiration date, 3-digit pin and drivers license number down on the back of the reservation paper so they would have it in case there were additional charges. (not too professional). Then, to the room. Room #1 had sheets that were marked with a hospitals logo. Wow!! Your motel sheets are taken from a hospital. Next, dirty bathrooms. Room #2. Hole in the shower. We did not feel comfortable taking a shower there. Sorry, but not pleased at all. When we spoke to people in the area, we were told we should have reserved at the Hampton, they were only $5.00 more.

This place advertised 24 hours, It is not! No way to contact anyone for service or check in after early evening! Even their in house phone goes unanswered! We had prepaid, no refund reservations and could not get our room, spent the night in our truck and had Nationals race that morning. No rooms anywhere in the area. There was suspicious activity as we spent 2hours in their parking lot trying to make contact!

Tried calling to check our reservation and they didn’t answer after an hour and a half we stopped calling. Was very disorganized and didn’t have a room ready. Cleanliness left much to be desired especially the shower. Guest were sitting outside our door making noise until 1:30 in the morning.

Scam
Smoked out side as to a non smoking rooms, still charge a cleaning fee....always had to have the windows open cause the heater unit on the walls never turned off fully and the crappy old wall ac unit was dusty and struggled to keep the room a decent temp...I've traveled all over the united states and have never been charged a fee for such crappy service and rooms...I should of spent the extra 30 a room and stayed at the nice hotel near town..I'm pretty sure my bags were rummaged through when I was away......says 24 hour front desk, got there at 330 am and had to call the number on the door for 30min to get a answer in the freezing temps then have then call another person to check me in.... FALSE advertising....watch out for the spiders and bed bugs,,I found at least one dead one..........I hope this truthful review cause you business. Don't steal from small business spending money at your business.DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You trashed our two rooms very bad, smoked in our rooms. You never called to say when your coming and if we are that dirty why stayed with us for fours days. Also remember your room was clean when you arrived. Because we charged you a fee because you did not follow our rules. Remember to follow rules. You can say what you want, the true is the truth.

NO COMMUNICATION OPTIONS = EXTREMELY POOR SERVICE
I ended up sleeping in my car in a Walmart parking lot near the Budget Lodge. I called EIGHT TIMES over two previous days to let them know that I would arrive a few minutes after 11:00 pm. NO ONE ANSWERED THE PHONE. I flew from Florida to Cleveland, drove non-stop for three hours from the airport to the hotel, arriving at 11:13. NO ONE WOULD COME TO THE DOOR. I have every right to be very upset. Hotels.com also dropped my case because the too could not get anyone to answer their phone calls. WHY DOES HOTELS.COM KEEP CLIENTS LIKE THIS?!!!
