Allyndale Motel

Room very rundown walls cracking carpet dirty bathroom moldy

The Allyndale is one of the cheaper extended stay motels in the area, with that being said, you get what you pay for. The outdoor area behind the motel has chairs and a fire pit which is nice. There is a nice sized creek on one side that if you can find your way down to is worth seeing. The ladies that run the office are nice and it was a good place to stay because we had a dog with us. The downside to bringing the dog there is that you can't leave the dog in the room unattended , ever, not even in a crate. That part is sort of a hassle but it's the price you pay when you have a pet and have to follow someone else's rules. The room itself was clean, bed was hard, furniture dated 70s/80s. The basics are there but not somewhere you would want to stay more than a day or two. very dark and damp feeling.

good

Well we walked into the room, both my son and I have allergies and our noses reacted right away to dust and mold. The bed and sheets felt old and dirty, like they have had them since the 70's, so did the towels in the shower. One of the chairs had a big stain on it, no one sat on that one. Everything about it felt old and dirty. My son laughed and said, mom went cheap..

There was no hairdryer in the room, but we just had to ask and we had one. While this is an older motel, we felt it was just very retro and enjoyed our stay there.

Motel is older and needs some remodeling, but okay to just sleep and shower. Nice, quiet area and friendly staff who are not at all intrusive.

A little outdated? Yes. But it was comfortable, peaceful & quiet! We liked being able to back right up to our own door to unload. Our room was large and had large windows for light! It was affordable with no frills, but we prefer no frills! We will stay there again!

I have no complaints at all. The facility itself is a little outdated, but it was very clean which means more to me than updates. Check in/out was easy & had nice little continental breakfast. Value for the money was great. Travelers should note that there are no blow dryers, irons or ironing boards.

The place is run down, then the owner tired to blame us and charge us for his worn out faulty equipment. The room was very small. His charges and the room charges were very expensive for the type and condition of the hotel. There is no breakfast or even coffee available. A vending machine with some candy was all that was offered. He had a hard time hearing, and was very hard to communicate with, and mixed up our dates, causing us to have to find another place before we were ready to leave. It looks like a budget hotel but they charge non budget prices. They claim they have wi fi and internet, but they do not, or if they do it never worked. The phone only worked sometimes. The bed was old and saggy.

We stayed at the Allyndale for a climbing festival in Duluth. This motel is a bit out of the way, farther south in Duluth than some of the "name" hotels. While a bit dated, the place was clean and neat, everything worked, and the price was reasonable. For the three of us we got a suite with a kitchen, a separate bedroom with queen and double beds, and a third queen bed in the living area, which also had a stuffed chair, a couch, dresser, big TV, etc. Warm, dry, shower worked fine. My only complaint is that the free wi-fi was slow. Not the worst thing that could happen. Quiet at night, and the fun spots in downtown Duluth are readily accessible (we timed as 10 minutes drive - in a snowstorm). I'd definitely stay again.
