tripadvisorIf I could rate this motel 0 stars I would. The fact that this place hasn’t been shut down by the town is mind blowing to me because this has to be the worst hotel or motel I’ve ever been to. There was blood on the sheets, the room was small and smelt horrible, the tv kept on glitching all throughout our stay, the air conditioner sounded like it was about to blow up and when we used this device that checks for hidden cameras, the device beeped when we pointed it at the shower head meaning there’s hidden cameras in the showers. Will not be going back.
MoreAn experience so horrendous I left within an hour of checking in. There were stains on the bedding and the curtains. The room smelt terrible. The floor was dirty. And there was no wifi. None. And the receptionist kept insisting that there was. I was there on business and needed wifi to do work for a deadline the next day. Staying without wifi simply wasn't possible. They agreed to issue a refund, which they still have not done, despite a month of phone calls and emails. Terrible. Horrible. Very bad place run by very bad people.
MoreAt $365 a week, even at the end of 2022 this is a horrible financial decision unless you’re staying very short term… Unfortunately my girlfriend and are quite literally in between housing and have had the unfortunate experience of having stay here for 2 months… One might wonder why stay so long if the experience is so god awful and well that’s a story for another time the short answer is our first week here our car stopped working and needs a new transmission!!… on with the review i probably have more insight than most as i’ve been a long standing customer of 2 months here at the Carrier Motor Lodge. I’d like to second and third the problems that others have mentioned such as the absolute disregard these “employees” have for a paying customer who might just be passing through.. I’ve had employees apologize multiple times as if i went into the office at a “bad time” and they were cranky and just zero hospitality or effort to make you feel comfortable at all, i feel like i’m buying wraps at a hood bodega every time i walk in to the office… Every room i’ve had the unfortunate experience of staying in at the very least every single one of them had cigarette burns on the comforters in non smoking rooms and there was no effort at all to mitigate the problem. So after you yank the dirty comforter you will have to bring your own broom and mop as the floors are so dinged up and nasty that unless you clean it yourself you won’t know what’s dirt and not and chances are there is gonna be a lot of dirt.. but if you can get over that maybe you can get over the dirty bathtubs that require shower shoes so you have peace of mind whenever you’re doing your business in the shower and don’t want the intrusive thoughts of whatever black specks of dirt, mold or other gross possibilities from the human body that these specks might be to get on your feet. But hey if you got NO WHERE else to stay and you clean the room up yourself before staying here it’s actually not that bad….That being said if i had the money or resources to leave and go anywhere but here i would . i hope this helps
MoreSometimes when you are traveling, all you want is a comfortable room with clean sheets and you don't want to pay big bucks for a few hours. So I don't stay in 2-star hotels much any more. As a silver member of the Hilton group, I prefer those properties. However, when you need a place to stay and don't want to spend $125+, you consider the 2-stars. The Carrier Motor Lodge is a classic Route 66 style motor lodge. The way motels used to be back before my day. I can only comment on our room and our experience. - The staff was friendly and courteous. - The room appeared clean and updated, however, the floor faux-hardwood floor seemed dirty. I think housekeeping used too much detergent in the water, which causes floors to feel tacky and attract dirt. - Bathroom was clean - King sized bed was comfortable, sheets were clean, - TV worked fine. - It was hot and AC worked like a champ - Didn't see or hear anything about a pool - There is a vending machine that had soda and water but there are supermarkets clse and PLENTY of dining choices. - Room had a working refrigerator and microwave (we used both) - Office doesn't open until 9. There were no instructions for checkout. We left at 7:00 and left the key on the dresser. - We used another reservation site and got the room for $70. We chose not to upgrade to a Jacuzzi room, which would have been $150. Note: I am traveling to North Carolina next week and need a room for about 8 hours. I was impressed enough with The Carrier Motor Lodge to consider 2-star lodging down there.
MoreStood 2 nights here. Liked that it had refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. Had king size BD alot of room to move around. The only downside is that the room was to close to the entrance so it was to noisy hearing ppl talking and doors slamming.
