Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My whole room smelled of a splilled beer, which made sense because when I moved the radio and the lamp on the end table there was stagnant sitting beer. It was very kind of housekeeping to leave us an exploded modelo in the freezer of our fridge as a welcome gift. The AC was musky. Towels a vintage/rustic yellow color. I dont know what continent this breakfast is "Continental" but the unwrapped poptarts and eggo waffles were top notch. Oh, but the apple juice was delicious...nice and cold.
Name that stain!

Room smelt very musty, and like stale cigarettes could hardly stand it. Stains all over chairs dust hanging off ceiling.the breakfast was just cornflake,cherrios, poptarts and bread or eggo waffles my kids were too afraid to eat because of the condition of the hotel. The pool is extremely small and rundown.

Fine Budget Motel

I had read several critical reviews and was suspect but my one night stay had no issues...the room was clean and possibly a slight leftover smoke 'odor' but nothing serious...bed was comfortable, room was quiet even though not far from the interstate...people complain about the quality of the breakfast but you get what you pay for folks...if you wanted a full hot meal, pay more and go to the Hyatt...the Super 8 is a budget hotel...it had cereal, toast, some pastries, coffee and juice...not fancy but adequate...so for a one or two night stay, this motel served the purpose!
