Not the best area

The staff was helpful, the cleaning tram will come bye and check to see if you need anything. But you have to pay for ice, snd time you want ice you have to pay. You have to pay for both washer and dryer, quite expensive washing clothes there. At night its very noisy not a good neighborhood at all, you hear people yelling and fighting, cars pulling into the parking area right outside people getting out fighting with others in the motel rooms before spending off loudly. Make you feel unsafe to walk outside for anything.

DO NOT

Within the first hour I had fleas crawling on me. I requested a refund and they said I’d need to go through hotels.com. Hotel.com then tried to contact the manager to verify that I left and she refused to help me. Her name is Edie. Horrible place and service.

Staff has the best customer service I have ever received. Specially front desk, by far best customer service. But vagabond inn needs to update their rooms. Rooms look dirty, not saying it’s not clean. But dirty smudges all over the wall, furniture missing drawers. Plus when I was inside my room I got locked in. I had to call the front desk about my room how I’m locked in. I requested for another room. I was giving worse room of course I wasn’t locked in. Door did open and locked

This pkace is one of those that makes you itch as soon as you come into contact with anything in the room. (Not literally, but it feels like youre going to see bedbugs or some other lind of vermin). DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE PHOTOS!!!! It looks NOTHING like the pictures featured. Think, burnholes in the blankets, full sized mattresses on quenn sized frames (i honestly think that we slept on a box spring)!, desks with no chairs or drawers (and with graffiti on them), doors that have obviously been kicked in as well as bathroom doors that dont clos,Ae for the ssme reason. Some have microwaves, some don't, same for refrigerators, and some dont have either. There is open and obvious prostitution going on here, and the owners 'don't provide' butter for the waffles and the bisquits and vravy? They dont exist. There is also a terrible smell outside. Sostay at your own risk. I will say that its not as bad as the Airport Motel 6(literally stayed the night in my car), but im pretty sure people have died here.
