Rodeway Inn Downtown

FEELIN KINDA NICKI… BEES IN DA TRAP!!!
This facility is in DESPERATE need of upgrading!!! Frankly, the conditions are deplorable and based on my experience there I WOULD NOT SUGGESTED IT TO ANYONE!!! Here is a rundown of the issues: A) The maintenance of the location is horrible, there was a crack in the MAINTAIN PANEL of the door that light could be visibly seen ²⁴⁄₇. Thus was problematic b/​c the temperature was 27° that evening B) There was NO SOAP OR SHAMPOO provided and I had to gò to the front to get it in that weather C) The phone was broken, which made it impossible to call the frontdesk D) I overslept and missed my checkout time, to which the young lady working the front desk notified me there was a charge for each hour over. I informed her that had there been a clock in the room that would not have occurred and she responded that I had the cheapest rate and that was an extra amenity’… To which I responded, a microwave and coffee maker are extra amenities… An alarm clock, WORKING PHONE (at least so you can contact the front esk) soap, shampoo and towels ARE NOT extra amenities but EXPECTATIONS when booking a hotel room of ANY level, ANYWHERE… If I were to do it all over I WOULD NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL, NOR WOULD I SUGGESTED IT TO ANYONE!!! The young man that checked me in was amiable and quite polite and apologetic. I wanted to make sure that I made this fact known since I am a Choice Privilege member and have a certain level of expectation of the facilities of the hotels based on the price point of the establishment. I have stayed at virtually ALL the various levels of hotels in the Choice Family pantheon and am familiar with what to expect. THIS DID NOT MEET THE MINIMUM CRITERION for a Roadway Inn. Just know, I was tempted to request a refund for this stay

The location was amazing and the staff were all really friendly, but the room was pretty dirty and poorly cared-​for. The sheets at least hadn’t been laundered well (hair and what honestly looked like a booger stuck to them), the tub wouldn’t plug (though why my girlfriend wanted to soak in this thing is beyond me), there was a spot of dried blood on the bathroom floor (which came up perfectly clean when I scrubbed at it, so it’s not like there was just a stain or something), and the walls had had stuff splattered on them. The armchair-​thing in the room had a lot of spoltchy/​runny stains on it, some of which would clearly have come off easily with any sort of effort and which also looked… I’ll say «biological.»
I don’t care if a building is old or there aren’t a lot of amenities or anything, if I’m at a cheap place I just want a safe and clean place to sleep when I’m in a new place. However, this place was dirty, bordering on downright disgusting. I feel leaving this poor of a review, because everyone I interacted with here was really nice, but it was just so incredibly dirty.

DO NOT STAY HERE!
I’d give this place 0 stars because it’s that bad. First off, they quote you at one price, then charge another when you show up. Not cool at all. (It was about a 20 $ difference per night). Second, the managers were rude to me, and did nothing to rectify the situation with the room cost. I expected this to be a cheap motel, but not as bad as it was. The inside was horrendous looking and DIRTY!
The only ½ way positive thing about this place was that it’s 15 min drive downtown. Stay at your own risk.

Its an old motel, but that’s no excuse for the makeup stains on the hand towels and wash cloth. I wish I’d of brought my own towels. At least there is a coffee maker in the room and I don’t see any bugs yet.

Our room was disgusting … Very dirty. Hair and small rocks in between the sheets. Hair and old soap in the shower (paint was pealing off tub). I wore my sandals in the shower. I booked my room on
and requested a non smoking room. When I arrived I was given a smoking room. The receptionist told me I got a smoking room because when I booked it was the last room. I booked my room one and a half months in advance. I wouldn’t have eaten breakfast there but even though free breakfast was posted several places and online there was no breakfast. The worst motel I have stayed in. I considered sleeping in the car. I was in the «b“building. I would hate to see what «c» building rooms looked like. I will never stay at Rodeway inn.

Sigh, there were blood marks on the shower wall! Had to shower with
my flip flops. The bathroom is very musty… its clean, but musty.
loud music was played at 3am, there was an odor to
the sheets, the floor is dirty. The staff was nice and there
was an array of pastry snacks to eat for breakfast.
if you’re a germophobe, id steer clear from this place.

Think I had same room as Corrine and the description is still accurate. Front desk staff was good but Rm155 was NOT. Bedding and sheets are thin and cheap; the floors are gross and worst part about the room overall. You are separated from your neighbors by walls so thin that you can hear every car door, tv, and room door closing. Was grateful the aging A/​C unit helped drown out some of this.
It’s «due for remodeling» and can’t be soon enough. Only option I had on convention /​Spring Break weekend. Tough call.

I don’t even know where to begin. The gentleman at front desk was supremely nice and understanding… especially after we came to him and exclaimed that we couldn’t stay. Reserved the «jacuzzi» room… oh my… wouldn’t have stepped foot in it. When we opened the door, couldn’t turn on lights… switch didn’t work… some man came up behind us with a flashlight to assist us. I think he worked there… who knows. The grounds were dirty and felt unsafe. Everywhere you looked and everything you read stated you were doing everything at your own risk. It was dingy and scary and no way was I staying there. Called the customer service line and was told I was at the mercy of the front desk as far as a refund… I had literally been there five minutes. The reservAtion desk wouldn’t allow me to book elsewhere stating it was illegal for me to have another reservation… what? At any rate, kudos to the front desk who Immediately refunded our money with an apology. The pictures online are deceptive. I wish I had had the presence of mind to take a pic of my room. You wouldn’t believe it. I was left with looking for another hotel at 11 pm with a dog. No easy task. Do not even waste your time here.

This is not the Strip in Las Vegas. It’s a cheap hotel next to the interstate and across from a Luby’s cafeteria, that’s a 7 – 10 minute walk from the riverwalk/​convention hotels. It wasn’t perfect, but other than the bitter night shift lady that wouldn’t make eye contact, staff were diligent and polite about trying to fix things. I would highly suggest if you stay here, ask for building A or B and avoid building C. My first room was in ‘C’, and it’s a parking lot/​couple of dumpsters removed from the main office, some empty beer bottles in the stair well, some lurky young men with nothing better to do except forget to pull their pants up, and my room had a split airconditioner (probably in the midst of repairs) behind the door (which also was cracked). I took a quick picture of the surroundings, and the folks up front found me something much improved and closer to the office. I got a clean room; the beds were oddly tall but they were clean. Also, don’t get too excited about breakfast; there wasn’t one. I got to sleep and I didn’t have to pay for parking at conference hotel.

I wish I could give this place zero stars. The room had a yellow, leaking shower that looked like it belonged in an abandoned building. They sent up someone to clean up the disgusting stains from the floor, sink, and sheets when we first arrived after we complained but it was still gross. We asked the manager, Edward to look at it and he did not care at all.
Comfort Suites Alamo Riverwalk, 1 mile away and awesome!

Not as bad as everyone said. It’s more of a extended stay place there is a kitchen and small living room in our room. We got our room for $ 50 off Priceline after driving 17 hours anything was good. Beds are a little stiff for my liking. It’s not very upscale but does the trick. Our sheets where clean and only one hair found on the pillow. Room was quiet and stayed dark (which I like) plus the Texas shaped waffle for breakfast. The breakfast is week but for free cereal and Texas shaped waffles not bad. I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here again but not as horrible as the other reviews.

2 smoky rooms, 1 with a busted doorknob where you can get in but not out. I guess jumping from the non-​lockable window works if you don’t want to try turning the knob 30 times.
Listed as 2-​star but deserves 1 really. Wifi doesn’t reach far from lobby, and is about 4KB/​s (slower than dial-​up).
Staff is friendly though. Offered me free snacks. Just a bad place to stay — dirty.
Better places for $ 45.

Yuck. This place was horrid. Where to start. Well how about blood on my pillow… Told the person on duty and their comment was, «oh it is probably old blood» Really? Oh that fixes it. NOT! Next, 2 out of the 3 nights I stayed there, there was knocking on my door, or rather pounding and yelling. The last night I stayed there I was awakened by more noise. I look out the peephole and see about 7 cops, arresting a few women, who were offering their services. I was so sketched out by this place that I had to put a table in front of my door, in order to feel somewhat safer. Do not stay here. It is gross and scary. I would never come back here and I would never allow my enemies, if I had them, stay here, for fear of their well being. Yuck…

I’m all for a cheap place to sleep, but this place was awful. You don’t get even the basics, the room wasn’t clean, the light didn’t work, wifi didn’t work and if the rest of downtown wasn’t already booked (I checked) I would have left this place. I booked this place thru
and they had given an ok rating but its completely wrong. This is the dirtiest, worst hotel I have ever been stuck in.

Most disgusting lodging I have ever stayed in. I am not talking about just a little mold or dust, just look at the pictures I have taken! Wow there are way better hotels in the Riverpark for just $ 20 more that won’t be roach infested. Laying down after a long road trip, found myself sleepin some urine soaked sheets. Soooooo Nasty!!! Too tired to find another hotel, took the sheets off and found the whole bed ful of urine. I was too scared to even brush my teeth cuz of what was on the sink. And what the heck was that stuff on the ceiling? The girls who checked us in had major attitudes too when we told them they got our reservations wrong. Morning free breakfast was a bunch of stale sweets. What a joke!!!
