Gateway Inn & Suites

We had booked for two nights but only stayed for one night because our room smelled as if someone had blown up the bathroom and not used spray. We went out and bought candles and room spray and it did not help. It was too late in the night to change rooms when we got there and wished that we had arrived earlier so that we could have found somewhere else to go. The staff are very nice and great. But maintenance/housekeeping must have dropped the ball because no room should smell like that. And come to find out it was the carpet. Not sure what happened in that room but it smelled like someone died in there. The exterior of the building does not look bad but the inside is way out dated and in major need of repair. I would not stay here again unless they had a huge sign saying it had been renovated and overhauled. The owners should be ashamed at running something in the ground like that. They have great staff and should give them a great place to work. And they should give military families somewhere great to stay when visting their loved ones going off to war. When you are going through a stressful time it is nice to have somewhere to relax. I would not recommend this place unless you are dirt poor and can't afford anything else. It is a "roach motel" and the only thing that it is missing is the bugs but it has all the conditions of one. They staff offered to move us the next morning when we said something but we were just glad that they let us move on. Thanks to the front desk staff for finding us some pillows and I hope your owners will fix the issues. Good luck to all that stay and work there. I will hopefully not have to stay here again.

This hotel needs extreme renovations. The overall appearance was old & out dated. The room itself was OK but considering the price I paid I expected more. The surrounding area made me very uncomfortable at night. And the you can't come in through the lobby after 11PM because the doors are locked. You must go through one door, out another to the back of the building then back in 3rd door to gain access-very scary at night for a woman who is alone. I was there to see my son off to Afghanistan-certainly not a pleasure trip and staying at this hotel only added stress to my trip.
