This is a very small property, and very old. It was a great value so we decided to try it out. The creaky staircase was kind of creepy, but overall we had a great experience. It seems they are trying to upgrade the rooms a little. The bed was clean and comfortable. However, I refused to shower due to the... More

Stayed overnight for late in, early out stay. Free shuttle service, however, we missed the morning shuttle and had to take taxi. Check shuttle schedule. Room was clean and re-decorated very nicely. However, a bit of the old shabbiness remained in the flooring and wall paint. Reception was very curteous. Price best in area, and included continental breakfast. More

I stayed for one night since I arrived on a late flight and left on an early one. For this purpose and for the price-compared to other hotels on the neighborhood-this hotel was a great option!

I stayed here for four nights and I did not have a problem. I found the staff friendly and helpful though most of them speak Spanish and seemed to know little English. I checked in at the hotel about one hour prior to check in time and I was readily accommodated. Also, the last shuttle leaves from the hotel to... More

I stayed for one night before moving to a prebooked hotel for Wrestlemania 28, and I don't understand why people give this place such bad reviews. To begin, I got off the plane, went to the help desk in the airport and asked how to get in touch with the hotel for the shuttle bus, the man at the desk... More

Do not be fooled by the picture of the lobby! This motel was the worst, scariest, and most dangerous motel we have EVER stayed at in 50 years of traveling!!!!!!!!!

Dear ljanzen, When a guest decides not to put a credit card down to guarantee a room because he or she might not make it to the hotel, we hold the room until eight pm. Most hotels like Marriott, Hilton and Holiday Inn cancel the reservation right at 6 pm without a credit card down. I am sorry that you... More

We stayed at the Runway Inn just overnight on a trip to St. Croix. The shuttle took a while to come get us after midnight, the front desk didn't have our reservation, and the lobby smelled like a cross between Clorox and mustiness. The bed was very springy and the bathroom was clean but could definitely use upgrades. The WiFi... More
