Pictures online do not match the current motel at all. The Blue Way Inn is closed and dilapidated. The sister motel next door is where I had to stay. I don’t normally read reviews but wish I had on this one. Socks in the refrigerator, dirty tub and microwave. Asked four times for room service to clean but never showed.

My experience was bad the moment i parked the car. The pictures that are shown on the Expedia app or nothing like how it looks in person. It’s very disorganized, dirty looking and once I got into my room There were a lot of mosquitoes and flies flying on top of the bed. Cockroaches all over the floor.

Should be closed. Do not stay there.

We did NoT stay. There was no bedding on the bed, there was no tv, the floor was horrible and money was not paid when we got there as submitted. They ran the card before we got there. When we called to confirm getting there, they told us the confirmation wasn’t complete, as they double booked and it was first come first serve.

I had to disinfect the entire room, even the living area. I had to purchase pillows and bed linens for the bed. I had to spray for bedbugs before preparing the bed for sleeping. One of the security guards was broken. There were piles of trash in divers places. The worst lodging facility I have ever stayed in. (SMH)

Do not stay here!

This is the only hotel that was so bad I've just walked out and found a new hotel. The locks on the door were broken, the microwave was gross, there was no toilet paper or towels and even though there were two sinks one had a cigarette in it! There wasn't even a phone in the room to get ahold of the front desk. My kids and I did not feel safe AT ALL, so I turned my key in and we left! For some reason the so isn't letting me post pictures, but I have pictures of how terrible it was.

Disaster

I had no choice with zero availability in Wichita the weekend I was there to stay here. After seeing the place I now know why they did have availability. Upon checking in, my room I had to kick a used tampon applicator off the floor into the parking lot. Plastic bags were pushed in the ceiling and walls to fill holes. I could actually see into the adjacent room. The sheets on the bed were filthy, and looked like someone had wiped feces on the sheets. The conditions were so poor, I immediately checked out and chose to sleep in the car out of concern for my health. STAY AT YOUR OWN RISK!
