No soap, no cups but there were spider webs

About as basic as a room can get. No bath mat, no extra towels, a container for tissues in bathroom but it was empty.  No water glasses, no laundry bag, certainly no coffee. I suppose the rooms are fumigated regularly since the only cockroaches I saw were dead.

Okay if you're desperate

Shower has a persistant leak, window in bathroom was open so room was quite cold

Room was very smelly and I didn’t feel comfortable staying there. This is an Inn for night workers and truck drivers. I don’t advise that anyone else stay there. I spent 2 min in the room and left. Lost my money on the two night stay. You’re better off at the comfort inn one block away.

Atayed for 3 nights. The room was okay but the bathroom was extremely cold. I had to cut the heat on and let it run for a couple hours so the room could warm up enough for me to take a shower. Also, had to plug up the fridge and upon looking inside of it, I saw that it needed to be cleaned. Overall, the room was fine.

It was okay.

The room was clean, neat and the furnishings very nice. The lighting was good too especially for reading. There was no waste container at all, no bath/shower mat when stepping out of the shower onto a tile floor which was slippery with wet feet. Also no coffee or plastic cups for water and no continental  breakfast which we knew. It was a clean acceptable place for a clean bed for one night at a lower rate than the surrounding area. Not great but not terrible either. Hard to find as was set back behind another business.

Hotel was okay and clean enough but very dated with original bathrooms, no amenities and our bathroom window was unlocked with a hole punched in the screen on the first floor. Phones/ light fixtures/smoke detectors had been removed off the walls and replaced but the damaged places on walls were just left as is.   At $110/night, it was way overpriced as several newer, cleaner and nicer hotels are available nearby at that same price point, we just happened to be in town during an event when other hotels were booked. The hotel has a lobby but it was locked and check in was through a tiny sliding window as if the area was unsafe (although the area appears to be in a safe and normal looking strip mall and we checked in at 3:30 in the afternoon).  Although I had already paid online I was asked for my drivers license then asked to sign a carbon copy of something?? The front desk person did not speak English and was unable to tell me what I was signing and did not give me a copy. There are no coffee makers in the room, no lobby to provide coffee and no free coffee was offered at the onsite restaurant, also called Rip’s. I also found it odd that such a dumpy motel would have a updated restaurant featuring dinner entrees ranging from $18-35.

Nicer, newer places nearby at same price point

This property is pretty dated, and the rooms are ok. Nothing fancy. You get what you see in the photo. Very Basic.

Stayed at Rios so that we could enjoy the Maryland Renaissance Faire. Room was cheaper than any other in the area. Very good price, fast check in. Room was fine for 2 nights. Water pressure was the best of any hotel I have ever stayed at.. Bed was okay, need larger pillows. but the room itself was large and had decent furniture in it. TV was a bit outdated, not high def.
