Reviews for Budget Inn
Review 1：The room wasn't very clean i.e., shower, sinks, etc. The sheets had not been changed hairs were noticeably found in the sheets. I asked for two clean sheets and put the fitted sheet over the comforter and used the extra sheet as a cover, In the morning, workers began walking on the roof at 6:30 a.m. because they were roofing (something I should have been told beforehand). Finally, the area is not safe to walk in at night. The only good thing was that the air conditioner was very cold and the clerk was a real gem or else I would have left. The photos and rating of 6.2 out of 7 are not correct.
Review 2：The clerk was very friendly but his manager needs etiquette training ( this was probably due to culture difference).
Review 3：We found bedbugs. One that had freshly eaten. I know have bedbug bites on the side of my face and on my neck. The girl at the front desk didn't even apologize until I was walking out of the door completely disgusted.
Review 4：Nothing.
Review 5：Morning desk staff was rude. Juice machine was broken, coffee lukewarm at 7am. Mattress was uncomfortable.
Review 6：Evening check in staff was pleasant. Free danishes, good selection. Room was clean, well maintained for the most part.
Review 7：Remember to lock everything!!! Someone tried to open our door at 1:30 a.m. on purpose or accidentally...I can't tell. But the lock that required a key card was unlocked. You can never be too careful. Every other thing is very good!!!
Review 8：We checked in at 11:30 at night after driving all day, only to discover that the bathroom light was burned out. Annoying, but it was so late, we didn't want to wait up for someone to come and fix it. The free breakfast is a packaged Danish and some coffee with powdered creamer.
Review 9：The beds were adequately comfortable and the room was reasonably clean. Our stay was quiet.
Review 10：Toilet flushed weird
Review 11：Clean, quiet and helpful staff. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was instant coffee and package danish, but show your motel receipt at McDonald's across st. to get 10 percent off.
Review 12：It said breakfast but a packaged danish and bad coffee didn't rate even the time to see what was available.
Review 13：Reasonable cost for clean room and hot shower. Didn't want more for price.
Review 14：rather dated. Carpeting smelled bad. Shower in our room kept quite loud noice and shoud be fixed. Breakfast consisted of one packed pastry and coffee/tea. Wouldn't call that a breakfast really. Not that you could expect much more for this price.

Review 56：We asked for a quiet room and were given a room next to a freeway. when I asked whether the noise abated during the night I was told yes. If I wanted a room on the other side it would be $10 more. The traffic noise went on all night.

Review 65：Housekeeping was excellent, enough towels provided
