Super 8 South Portland

There are a lot of things wrong with this hotel, particularly maintenance and housekeeping issues. The carpet was barely vacuumed in the middle of the floor - trash items under the table - and not vacuumed at all along the edges - there was a good inch wide strip of dust, dirt, crumbs, and general detritus along the walls and furniture bases. No hand […] towels. No latch on the bathroom door. There was a coffee pot, but no coffee or cups; in fact, no drinking glasses at all. The internet was "broken", and after reading reviews from a couple years ago, it's been "broken" for a long time. The continental breakfast was skimpy - cereal, coffee with coffeemate, and orange juice. We ended up walking over to the diner next door, which was cheap and great. Pros: The shower was hot, with great water pressure; the parking lot was large; it was quiet; I felt safe. And it was cheap. I think I'll pay a little more next time and find somewhere else.

The people at the front desk were friendly and helpful enough, but they didn’t have the type of room available that I booked, the internet service wasn’t working and when I went to take a shower the next morning, there was no water available in the room. The facilities were in a general state of disrepair. I travel a lot and stay in motels approximately […] 200 nights a year and this was one of the worst experiences in recent memory. Read more

Man! Where to start? How about...what do you expect for a room under 45 bucks? You roll the dice and you take your chances. Nice room (some minor mechanical questions), but it was clean and furnished. No breakfast to speak of, (maybe just a bad day).

Upon arriving the hotel was expecting me and it was nice to know there was no trouble checking in, however the room was filthy, there was no towels and it was terribly loud. It seems that something was wrong internally because a loud banging/clunking noise came from the walls. They said there was wifi but they seemed to be experiencing trouble that […] week with their internet connections. The bath tub looked as if they never cleaned it, and to top it all off employees of the hotel kept entering my room while I was there, and I'm sure while I was gone as well, due to the fact that one employee (I mean kid, he couldn't have been older than 19) informed me that he tried to go in my room because the computer said that the room wasn't taken. Needless to say I will never stay at that chain nor would I recommend it to anyone. Read more

There was dust lining the woodwork, the heater smelled like it might burn the place down, and the room smelled like old mac n' cheese. But it's really close to the airport and super cheap, so it was fine... Though next time I think I'll be willing to pay just a little bit more for a more comfortable experience.

1. Internet service did not work. 2. TV remote did not work 3. Cover of the AC controls came apart 4. Wallpaper peeling in the room 5. Breakfast was a disappointment - bread was in the plastic bag it was purchased in, muffins were also purchased off-the-shelf and still in their sealed covers, the coffee dispensers were out of order. To their credit, […] the front desk staff were certainly friendly and helpful. Read more

inexpensive rate. obvious cutbacks in housekeeping and maintenance. we requested no housekeeping because we were initially satisfied with the cleanliness of the room and also brought our own towels and linens. there was a communication break down betwen staff and housekeeping to honor the no housekeeping request because the housekeepers were russian […] on a temporary work program and did not understand. needless to say, our towels that we brought were picked up by houisekeeping never to be seen again, the staff did reimburse us with cash which did cover the value of the towels. the staff was friendly but seemed over worked and stresed with an overwhelming amount of complaints from their customers. did not even attempt to have the breakfast. there is no wifi available even though it is listed as such. a local advised us to travel to a nearby mcdonald's and access their wifi in their parking lot. the missing w in the welcome to super 8 was a case of foreshadowing at its best.

appeared to be a hotel that specialized in renting to monthly clients.

Lobby smelled of smoke..well stank of smoke. But my non smoking was clean and smelled only of cleaning products. Beds can use more comfortable pillows. My pillows were of the solid foam type and I could't squish them to my preference.

We needed a cheap place at the last minute and this fit the bill. We chose to spend a bit more money for a lot more comfort the following night. If you are on the cheap and know you aren't spending a lot of time in the room, this is your place. Towels are basic, sheets barely stay on the bed, air/fan needs updating but hey, we had a place to lie our […] heads. You get what you pay for....but it is clean! Read more

Smelled like they used a whole bottle of disinfectant to cover up some other horrible smell. Side door to hotel had no lock...seemed a tad unsafe. The lights didn't work in the room & the shower was a little dirty. Overall...we needed a cheap place to stay one night...and we got what we paid for! They did have some great cable tv!! I might think about […] spending a little more $$ next time & upgrade to a more reputable hotel! Read more

Motel in much disrepair. Phone in room didn't work and it took 3 tries to get a replacement. No towels in bathroom when I arrived and was told they were all out being laundered and I'd have to wait. Refrigerator and microwave in room not plugged in or out of service, young man at check-in desk not helpful at all. I would never stay here again and it […] has caused me to rethink staying at super 8s anywhere. Read more

I read previous reviews about this hotel and since I am not a very picky person I did not heed the warnings. I made the booking anyway because everywhere else was more expensive, and this hotel was close in proximity to where I wanted to be. I tell you now, unless you want to feel disgusting, creeped out by the disturbing uncleanliness of this hotel, […] and feel like you are in a low-grade horror film...than by all means stay there. It was cheaper, but i would not recommend it unless you have a gas mask. The windows are sealed shut, the floors are so dirty that our socks were black within minutes, the tub had 1 foot of water in it, the air conditioner did not work, the toilet was orange/yellow with flies in it. Etc etc etc. Do not stay there! Read more

I don't ask much from a hotel. Clean and dry on a rainy night is all that really matters. This one was dry, but not at all clean. Stains on the blankets, the origin of which I can only nauseatingly speculate on. Free WiFi? Uh, not exactly. Free yes, but none of the connections worked. I got the front desk shrug when I asked about it. I won't be staying […] there again. Read more

Picked it because it was cheap & close to airport. Big mistake! Was quiet & cheap. The only good thing I can say.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

One of the worst hotels we have stayed in. Shower curtain full of mold, only one set of towels in the room, we had to go to the office to get the extra towels. The vending machines were all broken. This is not a hotel I would stay in again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Lived up to the 2 star rating. Chosen due to lowest price that given night. Room was adequate. On arrival no towels, cups. 2 visits to front desk needed to obtain towels. Friendly staff.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I expected more for the price I paid. No curtain on the window in the bathroom. the towels were stained. I didn't feel warm and fuzzy over the place. but in a pinch and needing somewhere to stay..... it had a bed and hot water for a shower.

When we first got there I had to ask for "Hand Towels", "Face Cloths",and more soap................ The bathroom was "Filthy" ..............Had to have someone come clean it ........

Nice location right off the highway and close to where I needed to be. With that being said, I thought that the service was poor. The clerk sent me to the wrong room and once I found the room I was nearly overcome with the smell of amonia or some other cleaning solution. I had to leave the door open in order to get some fresh air. The room rate was […] "fair" and easy access to the highway but for an extra $50 I could have stayed in a cleaner hotel without the awful smells. Read more

The room was a good value for the price we paid (last minute on-line deal), but the exterior and grounds of the hotel were seedy and littered with trash- not a good impression!

The wallpaper was made new and it smells ugly. They newly restored the motel, but in very poor quality. We didn't checked in!

The Hotel was hard to find as the signs had not yet been installed. We reserved a non smoking room , but the room reeked of cigarette smoke. The lower floor of the hotel appeared to be undergoing renovation with construction equipment and debris around.

I am glad that I did not see the other hotel guest until the next morning, if I had see him when we checked in I would not have stayed. It appears that the hotel rents out rooms to street people, I am not against street people, but I did not feel safe, when I saw the man in the breakfast area the next morning. Your breakfast left a lot to be desire […] d. Read more

The Maid didn't come in so our room didn't get cleaned and we got no fresh towels. This would have been fine had they told us and at least brought some coffee and towels. Breakfast consisted of 2 types of cereal, coffee, packaged muffins, and toast. The hotel claims they have wifi but the signal was so low I could not connect. There was garbage in the […] hallway which I assume was because the Maid didn't come in. We were in a non-smoking room but the hallway smelled of smoke from other smoking rooms that were in close proximity to ours. It was a cheap room and we were on a shopping trip otherwise I probably would have complained more and found another hotel. Read more

The hotel was very dated and the pool area and halls had an odour that wasnt pleasant at all. The complimentary breakfast was ok but no air conditioning in the dining area made it unbearable to eat there.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We were taken back with the lack of the lack of items in the room. Facial tissue (none) clock radio (none) telephone book (none) and heating was not adequate. We will not be back and certainly not recommend this motel to others. Location was the lone bright spot.
