Trade Winds Inn Clinton

They need to be shut down they are nasty gross and rude I would never recommend these idiots to anyone they are worthless and it's a rat hole

Nothing I liked except it was less expensive. Unclean, unsafe, no chair for the desk, poor a/c

Good stay nice ckean rooms

Check in experience was good. The front desk clerk was pleasant and let us know she had already put extra blankets in the room just in case we needed them. When we got to the room itself, we started bringing in our luggage and looked around the room. We promptly noticed a large roach crawling on the wall. Killed it. My husband then went into the bathroom and noticed the 3 dead roaches next to the toilet and the long black hairs in the tub. Upon leaving the bathroom, he immediately killed another roach and a spider that was climbing behind the bed. Sheets were full of what looked like burn holes. We left immediately - not even taking the time to try to get our money back. DON'T STAY HERE. IT'S MUSTY SMELLING AND FULL OF ROACHES.

The rooms

The staff was friendly and nice... great location, many areas to shop and easily walkable

Decided against my better judgment to book a room there while recently doing Route 66. Booked directly through their website which takes you through to Magnuson Hotels and booked it 9 months in advance! When we arrived in Clinton after a long day's driving we were told that there was no room for us! What's more, the two people running the place didn't care and were no help at all. When I showed them the confirmation e-mail they just basically shrugged their shoulders and said that it was not their problem. There was no apology or suggestion of alternative accommodation. In the short time that we stood at the reception area it became obvious that we were going to have a lucky escape!! The reception area and breakfast area looked very run down. I e-mailed Magnuson to let them know what had happened but they have not bothered to reply. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express which was great.

My daughter and I stayed one night when we came to town for a funeral. Unfortunately, our family's house had a maximum number of guests, and this was the only place with a room available. I've stayed in some "unique" places during my younger years while traveling the country on a budget, but I have never been so scared in a motel room. The parking lot was dark, full of people hanging out in and around their cars drinking, and with kids crying and dogs barking. Our room appeared clean but was dirty on closer inspection. Thankfully I have a set of bedding I keep in my car in case of emergency (I always figured car trouble being the emergency, not a filthy hotel room!) so we slept on top of the bed in our own blankets. Throughout the night I heard at least three people try to open the door to our room. Needless to say, I did not get any sleep, as I sat awake watching over my daughter. I reported this to the front desk when I returned my key the next morning. The lady with whom I spoke was unconcerned. I guess she figured that if I had survived to tell the tale, there was nothing to worry about. If the situation arises again when we visit Clinton, I would rather sleep in my car in front of someone's house than stay at the Trade Winds Inn.

Cockroaches and other dead bugs along with people who do not care, won't give the money back and it's a shame because you want to find great places on Route 66. Spend your money at the Holiday Inn Express. hey care about their customers.

Room was not very clean, lights and shower did not work properly. Smelled like pee and perfume. Walls and ceiling falling apart.
