Rodeway Inn

We are a military family that happened to be passing through this area into our next duty station. I found this place on Unilocal,and called to see if there were any vacancies, and they did have one. I asked about the price of the room, and the woman told me $ 95.95. I asked if they did military discount, she said no. I then asked about the Unilocal offer, and she asked me what the Unilocal offer stated. I told her it said 10% off, and she told me «Oh no, we can’t do that.» I thanked her for letting me know the rates, and that my husband and I would continue to call around, and if we chose to stay there, we would call them back. We called a few more places, and ended up staying at the Motel 6, which suited our needs perfectly.
I just want to clarify that $ 95.95 for one night isn’t bad. But for anyone that understands the moving process with the military, knows that you try to be as smart about spending as possible. I think that the management needs to take down the Unilocal offer because it’s false advertising and it misleads customers.

Wow. So we have stayed here before when we were moving into town. It was pretty average and a good price. We recommended this place to friends and family who have visited. This weekend, we were having our windows replaced and wanted to be out of the house. So we booked here, knowing what we would be getting. First I was asked at the front desk why I was staying at the motel since I live in the area. I thought it was an odd question, but told her about our windows. Then, another woman comes in and goes behind the desk so she can tell me that they don’t allow «locals» to stay at the motel. Hmm. I was given the «it’s management, there’s nothing we can do» line. She explained that they have had problems with drugs and smoking in the rooms. I was basically made to feel like a criminal in my own town because I live there. I don’t even know what to say. How far away would I have to live for me not to be considered local? Jacksonville? Ashland? It may be that they have had incidences, however, it was very upsetting to be made to feel like a lowlife. I mean, I’m paying for the room, right? Very bad policy.

An excellent experience began while checking in with Robert, who was personable & friendly. The room was VERY clean. I would guess they have been recently renovated with fresh paint, furniture and linens. The photos shown here do not reflect the room we had. I can’t stress enough how CLEAN the room was. The covered parking is nice during in-​climate weather, but like another reviewer mentioned it does amplify the sounds of cars coming and going. Chatting with the owner at the free breakfast it was evident that he is sincerely interested in providing the best experience possible.

I’m giving this five stars, because it’s great for what it is. That said, it’s a motorcourt hotel so I’m using the standards of such, not a posh suite.
PRICE: very competitive for the location and style.
ROOMS: surprisingly tasteful. I’m guessing there has been a recent remodel and in fact, none of the photos I see on Unilocal show the nice upgrades. The owners did a very classy job. It has nicer touches than you’d expect at a motel: nicely tiled shower with a built in shelf, incredibly posh bed, a chair that is ridiculously comfortable and a flat screen. I would say the pillows and bed are so plush that you might want to bring your own pillow: they were way too big for me and I used a balled up sweater so I wouldn’t crick my neck. The blankets and sheets are quite nice. The shower is strong and warm. The towels are the generic thin cheap motel towels. Deal with it.
LOCATION: very easy access from I-​5, on a commercial strip. I wasn’t tempted to walk around that area but it was very close to everywhere we wanted to be.
STAFF: minimal encounters, no complaints. I do give them thoughtful points for spreading guests out so the rooms beside us were unoccupied.
TOUCHES: built in blow dryer. 4-​cup coffee maker with just one coffee pouch. Mini-​fridge.
ADVICE: be forewarned that it is loud in the mornings. This is a motorcourt, so people park right in front of the rooms and all the noise is amplified by the layout. I would’ve loved to have slept in but once others are up and loading cars, it’s hard to. Slamming car doors echo loudly.

This is a really nice place, clean and pleasant. The thing that turns this Inn into a five star Inn though is the manager. He is fantastic!!! He really helped me out from before I ever arrived. He was really kind and helpful and helped me park my really hard to park car. He spent a lot of time with me helping me out, and was really kind and pleasant about it. Many people would have gotten impatient with me, but instead he seemed honestly happy to help me and very patient. He was incredibly kind to me. That is something that is very rare in this day and age. I pass through here a lot. Now I know where to stay when I come back.
For those interested, there’s a coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator, and nice TV. There is free wifi and a full breakfast in the morning.
Also, the place seems very clean yet doesn’t smell so bad of lysol it would kill me walking in the door. I appreciate that a lot being chemical sensitive.

The motel was clearly recently remodeled. Everything worked perfectly. The room was quiet, clean, and well appointed. Both of the staff people I dealt with were personable and helpful. The excellent hot breakfast was standard for Choice Hotels.
I really appreciated the covered parking in front of each room. The Wi-​Fi signal was strong, and the Internet connection fast.

Very friendly service, room was clean, comfortable, and freshly remodeled and modern. Free wifi, tv, cable, breakfast. Highly recommend!

This place is great. They put so much care into remodeling it. Everything is clean and high quality. Even the breakfast is tasty.
There’s one really lazy employee, but the manager will fix things if he won’t make an effort to.
I am likely going to stop here every time I need to drive up the coast.
They’re flexible and they really make an effort to make sure everything goes well.
Also, if you have a AAA membership or hey, Unilocal has a discount too I think, you can get 10% off. I mean, $ 71 after tax for a nice, clean place that has a great bed, a luxurious bath, comfy furniture, and no bugs. Yay!

Excellent friendly service, clean spacious room, large parking lot, close to many dining options. Would stay again.

I’m upping my rating on this because since my last, they have improved the areas where I was taking away points.
Beds are now still firm but comfortable enough for a good nights sleep. Breakfast is also improved with more hot offerings in its own breakfast lounge.
The staff is extremely friendly and were very accommodating in correcting an error caused by the corporate reservation site.
Special note: If you make reservations online, doublecheck the dates every step of the way. The purchasing software will default the date back to the current days date if you have an error at any point that causes the page to reload. Found that out the hard way.

Got to Roadway Inn last night at 9:30. They were happy to see us and gave us a great room. I like it when a room is clean and smells good and has free WI FI.
Rodeway Inn provided us a great room with great lighting, a flat screen TV with Direct TV channels, refrigerator, and microwave in the room. There is also a coffee maker with a two cup carafe. The towels are nice and fluffy, very comfortable bed.
Staff are pleasant and friendly.

This motel has a carport than runs around both sides of the U shaped building which is great for inclement weather. Each room gets its own covered stall and you don’t have to worry about your vehicle being too close to the next one. Very unusual. The room was immaculate and the television was smarter than one of the operators (me). The management is very friendly and this is where I plan to stay in Medford in future trips. Why mess with the rest with this is the best.

Got in at 1 in the morning and still everything was quick and easy to check in and get settled. The room was of a pristine clenliness that even someone squeamish with germs like me could appreciate. The beds are very comfy for such a small place and the rooms are very roomy too! The décor is very simple but still makes you feel like you are in a super fancy hotel. I would come back in a heartbeat and will certainly carry out that statement if I ever stay in Medford again.

I checked Unilocal check-​in offer for 10% off. I called ahead to confirm the offer is going to be applicable.
When I arrived, the front desk explained it’s only 5% off if you are spending less than $ 70.
Anyway, sofa looks dirty and also the carpet looks like getting wet before.

Checked in here going of online reviews. For a inexpensive motel, this was great. The grounds were furnished with summer/​fall flowers. Designated parking in front of your room. Room had no foul smells and was extremely clean. I like the fact that’s it’s 100% non smoking or pets. (one inconsiderable girl needed to smoke under the carport) I have stayed on worse for more$. I would definitely come back. Staff is accomadatong. 5 stars would of been having a lounge on site. Within 3 blocks is 3 tweeker poker bars. Dress nice and they think you are Feds and leave. Lol.

Very nice hotel. Friendly staff. Looks like its been remodeled recently. Very clean with comfortable beds. Affordable.
Only downside was our satellite television didn’t work.

The hotel and location itself was ok. The parking lot was great and allows you to park right in front of your room. Every morning from 6am-​9am, they offer free conventional breakfast which includes waffles, bagels, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, cereal, 2% milk, biscuits, coffee, and some 100% juice. The 100% juice included orange as well as some other fruit. The fruit juices were not as great. They tasted very plain and «liquidy».
The hotel was decent. There is a microwave and fridge but the fridge was unfunctional. It was not even cold. There were a few defects in the room such as the shower head which looks like it was going to fall out, electrical outlets were unfunctional (well for the room we were in), and the deadbolt lock on the door is «cut off».
Additionally, there is free wifi there (requires a passcode) but it is horrible. Only like 2 bars in my room and is on and off. Other than that, the rest were ok.

Very pleased!
Stayed here based upon Unilocal reviews
Nice place, very clean and very friendly staff Will definitely stay here again when in the area

First of all, bravo on the Unilocal advertising. I came here solely on the #1 listing for Madras motels. The place was clean and decent and fairly affordable. However, I have to say that the 5 star reviews seem a bit much.
I mean yes, it’s clean. Fully acceptable place. I’d stay here again. And there is a microwave and fridge, if you’re into that. And there’s free Continental breakfast until 9:00 AM. There’s complimentary HBO and a kazillion dish TV stations. It’s what you need from a motor hotel.
Nevertheless, it’s an old motor hotel in a long strip of old motor hotels that look more less as good or as bad as this one. Take it for what it’s worth. The room smells a bit too strongly of room freshener – it emanates from the carpeting. The ceiling fan in the bathroom, which comes on with the lights, caterwauls like a diesel engine on an industrial refridgeration unit. It’s LOUD! The ice machine is in the guest laundary room in some dark back back corner, next to some remodeling project. It gives the active imagination of yours truly flashes of slasher flick abduction scenarios. That ain’t exactly «as good as it gets». It’s merely okay. And clean (clean goes a long way).
Oh yeah, there’s a 10% off deal through Unilocal.I called for a reservation and got a quote of $ 67. I explained to the woman on the phone that I had this 10% off Unilocal deal, and she recalculated and told me the price was $ 62. So $ 5 is 10% of 67. Just FYI.

You really can’t beat the price. We got our double queen beds for less than $ 87.
What I like about this place:
1. Clean: it’s not new, but clean.
2. Easy to find.
3. Park your car right out your room? That is really worth just about all the not so good stuff. I suspect that this was once a set of apartments that have been remodeled into motel rooms.
Not so great stuff :
1. Where are all the outlets? Someone remind me to bring a power strip when I travel next.
2. The wifi is super weak. Then again, we paid for a Best Western at least 50 more dollars three and a half hours away from here and the wifi was no better.
All in all, I’m very happy with this place considering the cost. Thanks to my fellow Unilocalers who helped us find this place!
