Don't stay here

what can I say? Staff was friendly and staircase in lobby was pretty and room was clean, that is where it stops. The pool was being worked on, the snack room had no snacks, the breakfast room was nice but they served no breakfast not even coffee, then they tell us there is no hot water after we checked in. Also we almost did not find the place the sigh by road and on motel said Quality Inn. He tells me they have owned it for over a year. My recommendation do not stay there until they finally decide to get it ready for travelers.

I have stayed here several times over the last 10 years it has become very outdated and service is very lacking with new owners. Pool was in terrible shape, no air in main hotel lobby, breakfast was minimal, over all it was not worth the stay anymore.

Got there to check in. Had a reservation for a king size bed. Get there to be told they only have one room with a king left and a key card won’t work to let us in he will have to every time we want it. Put us in another room with a smaller bed no discount no nothing. Get to room no toilet paper no shampoo and conditioner to be told sorry we’re out. Had to slam the door to our room to even get it to shut and no lock on the inside. Was super excited when we booked the hotel because they had a pool also. Nope wasn’t allowed in that either due to having it closed for “maintenance” but when we went out later that night after it was closed had it been open. The owners kids were in it. Will never go back!!!!!

The staff was friendly enough at check-in and check-out however the room was not super clean. There was dirt on the carpet when we came in and what think was a cigarette burn on the bedspread. There was about a quarter of a roll of toilet paper so I had to ask for more. One of the towels I was going to use, I think was clean but had brown poop-looking stains on it. The bathroom really needed a deep cleaning. We only stayed one night so we made do but I would not stay here again. My daughter also seen someone's fake eyelashes floating in the pool. I think in it's prime this hotel was beautiful with the staircase as you first come in but it's just not been well kept.

The towels looked either dirty or stained. The carpet in my room was filthy/greasy and felt weird on my feet. The bedding was also stained. The shampoo and conditioner bottles in the shower looked like they had pubes or facial hair on them. The bathroom was gross so I bought supplies to clean it before I used it. The only good thing about this place was the price and the people were kind. The cleanliness is rated as an F.

The run property is run down and dirty. The receptionist sent us to three different rooms before we found a "clean" room. The other rooms had other people's luggage and unmade beds and dirty bathrooms. The receptionist complained to another coworker the this happens regularly (her list of "clean" rooms are not actually clean). Our "clean" room was in poor shape. There are tears in the carpet, stains on bedding, and in overall poor condition. We ended up going to Walmart and purchasing our own bedding to use. This hotel needs much more work than just rebranding.

Showed up at 7 pm, had to wait 30 minutes for room. Then we were put in a dbl queen instead of what we booked, a king. Went to supper, when we returned. Notes on door and at front end saying no rooms available and if you booked 3rd party you would need to get refunded through them. Wow, I am glad we got our room. Short staff, no toilet paper in room.

Don't stay at Precious Hotel in Carthage MO.

We stayed at Precious Hotel in Carthage MO. The carpets hadn't been vacuumed in the hallways for a long time. Not had our room . Our room has canisters of D-con out in plain sight. Which our kids were older but could have been a problem for smaller children. The breakfast room was filthy and the trash can was overflowing with trash obviously there from the day before. No milk and when we asked they just said we're out. Eggs were cold just in a metal tray with no warmer. But the staff had plenty of time to stand outside and smoke. I knew we were in trouble when we checked in at 8pm and the desk staff had to run down the hall to check if the room was clean first. At least the sheets in the bed were clean.

This was the worst motel I’ve ever stayed in. The room wasn’t ready, no TP or towels in the bathroom. The breakfast was unbelievable. The manager brought a spoon of eggs at a time, and placed them in a pan, then brought 2 or 3 sausages at a time with tongs and put them in a pan. It was not even safe to eat. I think this motel should be reported to the health department!

Very disappointing. We were the only customers there so felt unsafe. Rooms were depressing and beds were horrible. Orange juice was watered down. Will never stay there again. I thought it was a Best Western from years ago but Quality inn has now taken it over. There is no quality.
