Can't say much I liked about this place. Beds were noisy. Bad sign when you see a pest reject object plugged in the wall socket. I saw a bug crawling across my sheets, so my mom took apart the bedding and we found it was not bed bugs or roaches, but an earwig. The room was not cared for, spider web behind the fridge. Paint drips on the walls, the night light didn't work.

I feel this room was overpriced for how shabby it was. The bed was a sagging mattress on a frame with no box spring. There was no soap for a shower. Towels were nice, and soft, though. The TV had no volume control.

Nice and clean and definitely worth the money

This establishment was so awesome. The sweetest lady at the counter was kind and courteous even though it was very late. Easy check in and check out. Though it was small, it was very nice and comfortable. Definitely stay here again.

The bathroom was dirty, mold in shower around tub & ceiling. Sink fell off the wall when I turned the water on and shattered on the floor. Miss hitting my feet by inches. Toilet was dirty with black growth in bowl. Staff was behind locked door with a doorbell for contact.

Fountain Inn van Wert michigan

Online representation very misleading regarding room size, cleanliness, and overall motel appearance. Small room so crowded that could hardly walk between furniture. Cables strung along walls for tv, very difficult to locate outlets for phones, one small wafer soap for both shower and sink. Hand towel grossly stained air conditioner condenser so loud when kicked in awoke from sleep and then so loud and vibrated .. the longest night ever. Very very overpriced and owner would not compensate anything!!

For $100 the night. Disappointing. The room was not very clean. Fortunately the bedding was clean. Everything felt “less than” clean. Sink was dirty and had hair. Bathtub the same. Everything needed a really good scrubbing. Three police officers showed up and arrested the guy in the room next door. Not sure what that was all about. For $100!! Wouldn’t stay there again.

Don't ever go here! They charged an extra $5 because there were 2 of us. The room smelled smokey, the curtain rod was bent so the drape didn't cover the window, the blanket had holes in it, the mattress was poor, there was only one small bar of soap and no shampoo, just conditioner, the ceiling tiles were loose, and the TV only got one snowy channel.
