This hotel is very low budget. There are people who stay there months at a time because it's a little cheaper than other hotels around. But not by much if you shop around you will see for yourself. The only positive thing i would say is that there is a Perkins restaurant right by it. I think it's even connected.... More

I am sorry to hear that we fell very short of meeting your expectations. While I'm pleased to hear that our service staff was pleasant and responsive, I understand we still have plenty of work to do at ensuring that no one guest of the hotel is in some way interfering with the comfort level of any other guest staying...

The rooms were clean but it was a section 8 hotel. We stayed one night and in the morning the manager in the Perkins next door, told us that someone got shot in the hotel that night. When the car service picked us up he asked us if we heard about the shooting. It was very disturbing news. I do... More

I apologize that you may have been subject to some local media hype surrounding the circumstances of any criminal activity that may have occurred in the hotel's vicinity during your stay. The fact of the matter is that there was not a shooting in the hotel, but an incident occurred near the hotel that involved a guest of a function... More

This place is aweful. I cannot believe that the health department keeps it open. A homeless shelter would have been better. My first night had the room flood from outside rains and a leaking air conditioner. Tub leaked and toilet did not flush. Walls were thin and my family heard everyone around us. We requested new room. we were told... More

I am very sorry for the poor performance we delivered during your stay last month. The hotel in going through a transition period with staffing and renovations, no excuse for your experience, just an explanation that we know we have some work ahead of us. Since your stay, we have begun to make changes in the housekeeping department, along with... More

There were some really shady people there and it looked as if they were living there. Only later on did I find out that it was a welfare hotel and that these people were drug addicts and ex-felons (quite possibly current felons). There was some kind of fight going on in one of the rooms near me and I felt... More

Stayed here for 2 nights because it was convenient for what I was in town for. I lived in Middletown for almost 10yrs so was aware of the riff raff that goes on at this hotel (motel). When we had arrived there were 3 Wallkill police cars at the entrance doors. As we were walking to the lobby door we... More

The beds could be more comfortable, but it really wasn't too bad. The location is nice, right off of a main road with a lot of stores. They lock the door at night and buzz you in. More

I've recently come on board at the hotel and have begun making inroads on customer service training to correct such unacceptable behavior. It is our hope that you would consider utilizing us again on your... More

This place is DANGEROUS!, scumbags in the parking lot, drugee's in the hallways smoking and drinking. Room had an intense mildew smell, and was filthy. The security door was broken so anybody could walk into the building, and this is an area where it matters! We tried to sleep, but had to leave because people were partying in the hallway,... More
