We are tourists from Russia. 2 adults and a child. We liked: a friendly and pleasant person at the reception. It is very important for us that it is quiet when visiting, and it was. It is also quite clean. Light breakfast, washing of personal things are included in the price. Convenient location, nice price.

When it was time to check in and I had my reservation ready on Expedia the lady at the front counter turned me away. Very rude given the fact that I had my reservation and she said that they didn’t have any rooms. So inconvenient.

Disgusting room. Clearly dirty towels, sink did not drain, roaches in front of the tv when we laid down. There is mold in the bathroom. Dog poop on stairs. Representation thru Expedia is fake. Quality Inn should get new management over this location. Whoever is running it, is clearly not giving any attention to any type of basic cleaning. And the door key paper holder was reused and sticky and dirty. This place is worse than any place I have stayed.
