Super 8 Lexington/Winchester Rd

Good stay for the price. We found this Super 8 to be clean and the front desk clerk was friendly. The room has a coffeemaker, fridge, microwave and desk. The tub is a little dated and the TV isn’t a flat screen, but has lots of channels. Continental breakfast was average. This isn’t a resort hotel, but adequate for a one night stay. They even had free newspapers.

Embarrassed to be here. but leaving a review to save you from being here. First and last time stayng at a Hotel 8! We had an unplanned trip and this was or halfway point. out of exhaustion we booked an online deal. The room smelled funny, the carpet was sticky and the «blanket» had holes on it. a fuzzy blanket that lost it’s fuzz. more like a foam pad… no exaggeration. I asked the clerk for another blanket and he said he had to check because he claimed they were fully occupied (maybe by transients since there were not many cars).and surprise surprise no blankets. I can handle dated. but this place was just unbelievable. because we were so tired we were going to muck it up but felt so gross being there. less than 30 minutes in our beds when we gathered up the kids to go. Our skin and clothing smelled like smoke.
refunded our money… this is a substandard room that should run for $ 29 … It is a complete embarrassment. My first bad review ever. One star is one star too many.

Not good but bearable. I wouldn’t take my family here for the fear of catching something. This place reminds me of those episodes of ²⁰⁄₂₀ when they took black lights to see what’s on the sheets.
The room we stayed in looked old and it was cramped. The bath tub didn’t drain well and it needed to be replaced, the paint was starting to chip. The mini fridge was sitting crooked so someone placed folded paper under it and it was as loud as the a/​c. Extra points for nostalgia, they didn’t have flat screen TVs anywhere.

When my dog walks in and finds delicious crunchy unidentifiable things on the floor, that’s a bad sign. The carpet was pretty awful. There were several fresh stains that didn’t look like anyone had yet made an attempt to clean them. Lots of hair and lint were on the carpet, indicating that this room had not been vacuumed for a very long time — this was clearly the collection of quite a few guests.
The room had what I consider a tolerable amount of mold in the shower/​bathtub given that the room was pretty cheap. The bed was okay. Old-​style TV and the remote didn’t work. Heat/​AC worked fine.
I commented on the condition of the carpet/​vacuuming at checkout. The lady didn’t seem very concerned.

Not as clean as a bus terminal, not as charming as a crack house. This place is so awful, we have to laugh.
This place is scary from a hygienic point of view. When we opened the door to our room, the odor of mold and mildew slapped us in the face. My fiancé’ was hesitant to enter because she thought there might be a decomposing body inside. It appears there might have been one in the tub… or someone’s biology experiment gone awry. The only cleaner this bathroom had seen was probably a hit man who used the tub to dispose of a body. The carpet was soaked throughout, and it actually made squishing noises as we walked around, so we dared not remove our shoes. Upon surveying the bed, we decided our shoes and clothes would stay on IN THE BED. I don’t understand why the owner would not simply throw away a bed spread after it has dozens of cigarette burns in it – I suppose for the same reason he doesn’t throw away blankets or sheets after they are peppered with burns and holes. Apparently, the room had an insufficient number of electrical outlets, so they employed a creative use of daisy-​chained splitters. Being an electrical engineer, I worried about the potential fire hazard. No problem — the floors were sufficiently soaked. It appears that maintenance is not performed in this… establishment. There are missing tiles, warped baseboards, pealing paint, crumbling drywall, and the door to our room was so askew, it required both of us to pull up on the door and twist it just right to set the deadbolt.
This place is so bad, it has to be seen to be believed. Just make sure you are up to date on all your vaccinations.
