Overall, this hotel was a good choice for our budget, but there is definitely room for improvement. The price was great at around $55 a night, and I appreciated having a microwave and mini fridge in the room. The location was convenient, especially being close to Denny’s and Waffle House.

That said, there were several maintenance and service issues. The advertised continental breakfast was disappointing because it was basically just a small basket with diet bars. There was an old wasp nest above the screen door connected to our room, which gave the impression that upkeep was lacking. Housekeeping never came into our room during our stay to empty trash or replace towels, and we had to ask for toilet paper when we ran out.

The room had several issues: the shampoo and Kleenex dispensers were empty when we arrived, some drawers were broken, the TV remote was taped together and the batteries kept falling out, and there were dents or imperfections in the floor and ceiling. The toilet also made a strange high-pitched whistling noise when flushed. Some electrical outlets were inconveniently located, and our room key stopped working about an hour before checkout. The Wi-Fi password also changed on our last night.

Our room was on the second floor with no elevator. Some guests frequently hung around outside, which felt uncomfortable at times.

For the price, it met our needs and helped us save money, but better upkeep and attention to details would improve the experience.

The room smelled musty, but was clean. They said they served continental breakfast. There was no coffee. The clerk made a pot, but the maker was so plugged that it only dripped by drops into the pot. So no coffee. Breakfast was packaged donuts and granola bars. The door for the ice machine was locked. There were 3 employees standing around smoking weed. They just shrugged and didn’t unlock the door. It’s a cheap price and that’s what I got. Cheap.

You get what you pay for. The property is really run down. Checking in, the questions about pets, vehicle id, smoking, etc., were handwritten on a piece of paper with a drawn line next to them. Very much like an elementary note, \"Do you like Jenny?\" Mark yes or no. But again, you get what you pay for. We were here to go to sleep and continue our drive the next day. Suited our needs.

The eye on the TV's that communicate with the remote control are on a cord that sometimes falls back behind the tv and then you can't change the channel.....even manually on the TV. This is something that should be a permanent fix so you don't have guests contacting the front desk all the time when the TV doesn't work. The manager was very helpful.

Comfy beds, nice pillows, plenty of towels in the room. If yours looking for a cheap place to sleep pick this place! I’ve had $300/night rooms not deliver what this place did, oh best part- the staff is amazing and helpful and polite. I have a medic alert service dog and they didn’t give me any grief, were educated on protocol/laws, and even accommodated a ground floor room for my mobility issues.

Scam alert and a slum! We pulled up to check in and there was a sign in the door that said, \"Be back in a few minutes\"... we waited over 30 minutes. Nobody came to open the door. A car pulled up full of sketchy people who were yanking on the door to get in. We were so concerned about the look of the building and the environment that it is in. This is the type of hotel they warn you about. We didn't even check in, BECAUSE NOBODY WAS THERE! After that we panic searched for another hotel and on our way back by there were at least 5 cop cars in and around the lot as well as other responders and THAT is when we knew we made the smart decision. There was no return of money even though we never even got to speak to a person.
Believe the other reviews, this is definitely the type of place where you will end up getting bed bugs from.
Shop on and find another place for your safety.

Room was filthy, cold, and had the materials to make meth stuck between the mattresses on the bed. Something was spilled next to the nightstand and was still on the floor between it and the wall. There was a bench in front of the mirror that had something on it and needed to be cleaned. The only reason I stayed was because they wouldn’t refund my money even though I booked a nonsmoking room due to my allergies but they said a smoking room is all they had. Again was told no refund. Then charged my credit card for the deposit that I knew nothing about until I already booked the room. Told me it would not be charged unless there was damage to the room but charged it anyway. Told me I couldn’t get it back on my card for two weeks

I booked a non-smoking room and was out in a smoking room (ashtrays were still dirty even), desk assistant was pleasant and switched the room. 2nd room: ac wouldn’t work. I pushed reset on the plugged and plugged it back in and it sparked a bit and instantly stopped again. Desk assistant was apologetic and offered a room on the 2nd floor. Stairs are very hard for me but it’s late, we’re tired, I accepted. 3rd room: DIRTY! A wad of hair under the sheet in my bed (looked like it went through the laundry but was obvious and housekeeping should have handled it not made the bed with it). Daughter’s bed had pubic hair in it and a stain on the blanket! That’s enough but in case you want the list (things I found BEFORE the hair because we then left immediately!):
1. I always check for bedbugs - no real signs of them but piles of old crusty bugs up against the bed and the mattress and box springs were stained filthy!
2. Empty Kleenex box - no replacement to be found
3. No soap at sink but did find some near the tub
4. Hairdryer covered in some dried on crud
5. Floor so dirty my daughter threw away the socks she had walked on it with.
At this point we left and I drove the 3 hrs home in the middle of the night.
The desk assistant DID offer for me to try a 4th room. I declined.

I’m writing to share feedback regarding my recent stay at your hotel in Rolla, Missouri. While I initially hesitated to speak up, I’ve given it some thought and feel it’s important to provide honest feedback on my experience.

Due to extended travel, over seven hours on the road, I was too fatigued to continue safely and decided to stop in Rolla for rest. Unfortunately, my stay did not meet even the most basic expectations of comfort or cleanliness.

The condition of the room was so poor that I felt compelled to sleep fully clothed and opted not to use the shower. This was not a decision I took lightly, but rather one driven by my concern for hygiene and overall room conditions.

While I understand that travel accommodations can vary, I was truly disappointed by both the lack of quality and the overall customer service experience. After such a long day on the road, I had hoped for a restful and safe place to recharge. Sadly, that was not the case.

I hope you’ll take this feedback into consideration to help improve the guest experience for future travelers.

Fairly quiet (some raucous people pulled about 11p), fairly clean (dusty), sink area remodeled, but small bathroom in need of new shower (worked, but worn out & took 10min for hot water to get to faucet, but OK after that). Continental breakfast is just \"snacks\", but Denny's adjacent to & Waffle House short walk. Again, was OK for this simple, rural girl, but don't pay more than a $100 for it.
