Rodeway Inn

As I write this review it is 1am in the morning. I have been here at this hotel for approx 4 hours. After arriving and not being overly impressed by the state of the rooms or the hotel in general, I have been awaken in my sleep 4 times! 4 times in 3 hours! I have complained to the front desk about a group of people who have arrived within the last 2 hours and were loud and shouting up and down the corridor, nothing has been done. Now it’s 1am, although most culprits have quiet down, a few still remain shouting up and down a corridor and in their keeping up whoever around them. With the paper thing walls and floor, this is EVERYONE! This hotel not only looks and feels dirty, it attracts horrible types of people who worst of, the staff will not do ANYTHING about. I will never stay in this hotel again.
I do not fancy staying in a hotel again where I can not sleep and actually fear for my safety if I leave my front door.
Pathetic management.
Wish me luck for the rest of the night…

These people are rude. They checked us into a room that was not yet cleaned up. I returned back to the front desk, uncomfortable to stay here any longer and was still charged for 3 days.
Before this they ran my daughters credit card and swiped mine and ran it. When asked why they charged my daughters card they said they had no other credit card on file however I seen my account and my credit card information there. When a refund was supposed to be placed to my daughters account they charged her again and mine. I asked for her credit card to be refunded the Front desk agent refused saying they could not without another form of payment. They already had my cc on file. These people are crooks.

Brand new bikes stolen!!! After I was reassured by the lady owner that it would be safe multiple times. I inquired upon checkin since this is our first time traveling with bikes. When I reported the bikes stolen the guy who was the manager said oh, I remember you. Corporate office doesn’t allow bikes on the property. Complete BS!!! The owner was arguing with a customer when I checked in stating she was the owner and this is an independent owned motel.
The manager RIC told us u would be credited two days and it never happened. He is a lier. This Motel is FRADULENT!!!
It is the worst motel I have stayed at. Completely run down inside, bathrooms are disgusting, furniture is falling apart. Just unbearable inside… the outside is deceiving.
During check in the owner and manager were speaking in hindi and we’re making fun of another customer… little did they know I completely understood them.
This business needs to be shut down. I have never seen any business so poorly run and the service is beyond pathetic.

Please don’t waste your money. I would have rather stayed in a park in a sleeping bag. Dirty smelly gross. That just summed it up.

The only positive thing was that this place was within walking distance to the salt palace. They up charged way too high for the OR event, because the motel 6 across the street was still only 85/​night. The Rodeway charged 250/​night. The hot breakfast was not even worth it, there was no fruit or protein, it was only waffles, oatmeal, and cold cereal. GO TO MOTEL 6 ACROSS THE STREET!

After our nightmare at the nearby Econo Lodge, we decided to give this place a shot. Well, the chicken bones just decorating the floor in the hall should have been a dead giveaway that this place was a cesspool. It’s «nonsmoking» supposedly, yet there are people smoking in almost every room, people hanging out of the TOP FLOOR WINDOWS smoking and letting the cigarette butts hit anyone’s head that might be walking by, not to mention the rooms smell like a pet shop. Our room was filled with dirty smoke air. You seriously couldn’t breathe. The dressers, the desk, and the fridge all had this greasy film on them and it oddly smelled like cat pee in this random spot. So I looked down and it was either cat vomit or dried cat turd remains that were sitting right in the spot where it smelled like cat crap.
We went downstairs to complain and Carl (the man working the front desk) was not happy. We were fed up with this now being the THIRD disgusting hotel room in one night, so we just wanted to leave. Carl actually refused to give us our refund when Expedia called him to request our money back. So if you actually try to stay here, please throw the chicken bone (that I’m sure will still be chillin’ in the hallway) at Carl.

Worst experience of my life. Booked my room the day I was driving through Salt Lake City and called to confirm that they do 24 hour check in since we would be arriving late at night. We got there around 12:30 and stood waiting for an hour before anyone came to the desk. I knocked on the office door, repeatedly calling the desk and let the phone ring and ring but no one answered. Called
where I booked the room and they couldn’t get in touch with anyone either. Guests were walking in looking for a room and walked out since they’re was no one there to help them. They must of lost 3 rooms of business within that hour. Meanwhile me and my friend are sitting in the lobby in the middle of the night after driving 9 hours with no where to sleep. By the time he randomly showed up the man acted like he had no idea we were waiting and that we were crazy for being annoyed. He was totally rude to us as if he was annoyed with us for bothering him this late. What a jerk. Then check out was at 11 and we were packing to leave when the house cleaners came banging on our door at 10:30 to kick us out. The room was fine but I’d never stay in a rodeway inn again.

Neighbors were noisy, bed wasn’t overly comfortable and room was pretty dirty.
We checked out early and were given a refund without asking for it.

This inn was supremely adequate.
Hey, let’s be honest. Most times when it comes to hotels you get what you pay for and at this place it shows. The Rodeway Inn is not going to knock the ball out of the park with an exotic spa or hot tub. It’s a run of the mill hotel where you can rent a room that has four walls, a bathroom, and a bed for around $ 60 a night.
In my room I found the items that were most important to me: a Flatscreen TV, mini fridge, and my own cooling and heating system. The inn lacks a pool but does have a quaint fitness center and it also has the convenience of having a gas station located right across the street.

First of all, the hotel overcharged me by quoting me one rate and charging me $ 92 more when I checked in for my 6 night stay. Now, by that time, I was already at the hotel and every other room in town was booked so there was nothing I could do about it.
My second issue is that the hotel had BEDBUGS in my room and when I asked them to change me to another room, they did so grudgingly, while at the same time telling me they thought they were being «overly apologetic» about the issue. Apparently they are used to this complaint, or they would have been more responsive (and there is no such thing as being «overly apologetic» about bedbugs, ever.)
My third issue is that I was moved to a room with broken window and door latches, with very easy access to get into the room from the parking lot and no assistance from staff when I requested a window lock or blocking bar (dowel rod).
My fourth issue was that the staff went into my room when I had my DO NOT DISTURB sign up, not to clean the room I guess since they didn’t, and that they left the door unlatched (open) when they left. I am luck nothing was stolen.
My fifth issue was that the hotel was dirty and I am certain that at least twice I encountered prostitutes in the hallways or parking lot. This hotel is not, and should NOT be considered a CHOICE hotel by any means.
My sixth issue was that they overcharged me when I checked out, the desk clerk was rude, I waited over an hour for him to correct the mistake and finally gave up and left since I had a 12 hour drive in front of me. I have written to corporate and filed a chargeback on the charge.
I would not recommend this hotel to ANYONE, even if I didn’t like them that much. To recap, the hotel LIED about their rates, had BEDBUGS, were rude about it, failed to provide adequate security, and OVERCHARGED me. I would give them less than 1 star if I could.

UGH. We stayed here on the suggestion of the Choice Hotel representative, but I think staying in a tent in the homeless park across the street would’ve been the same experience, with the $ 100 in my pocket. The walls are paper thin and you can hear everything, like the man screaming at his children until after one in the morning. The place is filthy and stinks of cigarette smoke. Everything is busted and leaks, running water everywhere and the toilet running all night long. Tremendous noise and shady characters loitering in the parking lot. I’m pretty damn certain we saw a hooker giving a man a blow job in the far corner of the lot. Our uncertainty is whether or not she is a hooker; the act was obvious and was a great conversation starter for my 13 year old. Wifi doesn’t work for crap, the beds are lumpy and hard, and I don’t even want to think about the sheets we slept on. We bounced as soon as we got up, never looking back.

Paying cash? $ 100 deposit. Guess they are sick of people trashing the rooms. This is not a place of beauty. The ironing board so casually thrown in the corner is ripped and dirty. The toilet ran all night. The pillows feel like they are stuffed with tissue paper (and not a lot of it). The desk is a leg trap. Can’t wait for breakfast.

You get what you pay for. Literally everything in our room leaked: the heater, the window, the fridge, sink & shower. The curtains don’t keep the light out, and there were children running up and down the hall ALL night. We asked for more pillows and towels after being given one of each, which I had to go to the front desk to get myself.
Our bathroom wasn’t cleaned before we got here, so I bought some Clorox wipes and did it myself. Gross.

This place is an absolute dump. Stained, frayed carpets. The whole place stinks of smoke. The interior looks like it hasn’t had a refresh/​remodel in at least a decade.
The vending machine on the 2^nd floor has no power. It just sits there occupying space.
The back door to the parking lot can’t be opened with a room key despite having a key-​card reader. I had to drag my luggage all the way around to the front of the building. When I asked the clerk about the rear door he just said, «oh yeah, there’s a problem with the door.» No kidding!
I stay at a lot of «budget» hotels but this place is beyond the pale… disgusting.
It’s rare to find a place that makes Motel 6 looks like a palace but this hotel does just that. If shame and misery had a brand, it would be Rodeway Inn.

A lot of scum bags hanging both outside and inside the hotel. Other than that, clean room, decent rate (with triple A discount). Car didn’t get f*cked with. WiFi works good. Can’t complain.

I’ve stayed at some dumps but this one is the icing on the cake. The first room I got the light was broken in the bathroom and the dead bolt wouldn’t lock. The second room they gave me had a broken heater, no microwave, same problem with the lock.
The carpet looked like a porno was filmed on it. I think they might be running prostitutes out of here too. Save the time and go to the Red
Lion. Not worth the few dollars I saved.
The staff was friendly but that was it.
