I'm amazed Expedia allows this property to be listed on their page. Our basement room was musty beyond acceptable, cracks in walls, bathroom door wouldnt close, no washcloths, and worst of all the desk clerk was completely surprised by our arrival. She said they were full, but there were 6 cars in the lot for a 30 room facility. It was beyond creepy and i paid $200.00. Unacceptable.

Pleasantly Surprised

I have staid in different motels and really didn't expect much from this one because other motels were musty smelling and just didn't feel clean. At the Allyndale I was so surprised and pleased. It smelled very clean and fresh, the beds were very comfortable, bathroom was very clean and the towels were soft and fluffy. The room was very spacious with a good sized fridge and not little like the other hotels. It even had a nice round table where you can eat. Oh yes, and it also had a microwave. Overall We were very very happy with our stay and would stay again in a heart beat. Great job Allyndale. I wasn't paid to write this. This is from my own honest experience.

The water that came out of the tap was yellow. The carpet was from the 1950s and very worn. The shower did not work. The air conditioning did not work. There were no amenities.

Good for a quick stay

It eas a clean room but in need of updates. It was like it was when I was here in the ‘70s. The best thing was it was quiet & the mattresses were good, but they need new pillows!

Since we did not have what the manager termed a “normal” time frame for our stay I feel we were given the worst room. The carpet crunched when you walked on it. Did not walk on it without shoes on.

Needs TLC and basic updating.

First, desk clerk was new and didn't know where the room was. It took 3 tries and a call to the owner to find room 3. Older motel so we weren't expecting much. However, in 90 degree heat, it would have been nice to have an air conditioner that actually made the room cool. TV remote partially changed channels, but no volume control. Safe neighborhood. Quiet. Hidden up a hill with poor signage during the day. We drove right by it the first try. Bed was comfortable.

The property was locked when we arrived at 10.30 pm Even after calling them, no one picked up phone. We were stranded and had no accommodation for night. I called Expedia for the help. Expedia service person Aldo’s couldn’t reach the property owner.

People in the office were friendly, but the room was gross. Carpet looks like it has never been cleaned (it crunches when you walk on it.) Bathroom door was broken in several spots, and curtains reeked of old cigarette smoke.

The stay and the motel were very good. The owner was very accommodating and helpful. What was bad was that you (Expedia) did NOT have my paid reservation submitted to the motel. All you gave him was my name…so essentially, I did NOT have a reservation (and the extra paid insurance for the reservation) with the motel. So now I have been charged twice on my credit card 557.67. Once from you on 5/17/23 and the motel charging me (since they did NOT have my reservation from you).
