Convenient, Clean, Affordable

I have always found that Quality Inn is a convenient, clean, and affordable location in Carbondale. A person can catch the bus nearby at the Kroger store or across the highway at Walmart. Also, there is a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant about one block down from the motel.

The room smelt real musty, the toilet wasn’t cleaned properly. General upkeep seemed to be lacking. Overhaul we not happy with the experience. This was not what I expected from Quality Inns, I always look for your motels when traveling because of cleanliness and great service,and affordability. I hope this helps you in making changes at this location!

The hotel was filthy and smelled horrible. The room appeared to be alright until we started noticing the floors werent clean and I dont even know what all over the walls. My bed didn't have a fitted sheet, only 2 top sheets - which had what appeared to be pubic hair on them. Do not recommend.

Property was dirty and smelly worst hotel I ever stayed at!!! Was afraid to lay in the bed! The toilet and tub looked like it was never cleaned. A dry towel was hanging on the back of the door that was used by the previous people. I would never stay here again!!

Terrible. Took smelled like smoke. Sink, and lamp shades had stains from cigarette smoke. There was a hole by the piping of the sink. Tissue box had no tissue in it. Water pressure in the shower was nice but shower bar was broken which did not keep the curtain covering the tub- water easily got all over the floor. Hallways smelled like piss and vomit and the flooring was very uneven and bumpy. Are they even up to code?
