I didn’t like it. It was last minute & available. I didn’t feel safe. It didn’t look safe. The bed wasn’t made. The host brought the bed covers to the room from the dryer. People were knocking on the door. The peep hole was covered while knocking. I called front desk and he said he ran them off. I’m glad my husband was there. I was still terrified.

Perfect place for fishing tournament boaters.

The staff consists of a very nice and accommodating couple. They went over and above to make our stay perfect. We were there for a high school fishing tournament. They made sure we had parking with power outlets to charge our boat batteries, for the next days fishing. The owner called me several hours after we checked to let me know that they found some money in our room. Sure enough I had dropped my cash in the room as we hurried out at 4 am. That kind of honesty is hard to find these days. The room was clean the beds and pillows were very comfortable. We had plenty of hot water, ice, towels. It is an older style small town hotel with small rown charm and very personable friendly staff. Thank you Mr and Mrs Patel.

Its an older business. I have stay many times. But this time it was not impressive. Just 2 pillow, but guess thats not one should need. Both pillows felt like concrete. The bath towels either stained or dirty. Towel look like it had poop on it.

The Jonesboro Budget Inn is just that, a Budget Inn as advertised. However, the owner was a great guy to have a conversation with, knowledgable of the area which was helpful and a very pleasant fella. He kept a clean and quiet business which was what I was looking for. If your looking for a clean and quiet place to stay at a great price in Jonesboro, Louisiana, the Budget Inn is the place.
