Newport Inn By OYO - Hwy 101

NOTHING

My daughter, friend and I stayed at the Newport Inn by OYO on Friday night, August 29, 2025. This was one of the worst motel stays I’ve ever had. The room reeked of stale smoke and some other mystery fumes. There was a burn/tear in the linoleum right in the middle of the floor, and a dirty footprint on the back of the bathroom door. The beds looked so questionable that we went out and bought our own bedding and pillows just to feel comfortable sleeping on top of them. The room was hot, the ceiling fan did nothing, and there were no lamps. The TV was tiny, and there wasn’t even a phone in the room to call the front desk if needed. Outside, it seemed like people were living there — barbecue grills, potted plants, dogs roaming around. One woman spent half the night whistling and yelling, which made it impossible to relax.​ We did not feel safe at all. The only positive was the man at check-in, who was friendly. But for the price we paid, the place should have been far cleaner and better maintained. Definitely not worth it. ​A refund would be appreciated. ​Sincerely disappointed

Room was advertised COMPLETELY differently. Looked nice and updated and clean online. Entered into a room that stunk of cigarettes and mildew. Rust on everything, dirty bed sheets, hair on the very old comforter (which was advertised as being a clean white blanket) furniture hiding rust stains on the floor. Overall very disappointed that I spent my money on this. Obviously they’re aware of the conditions because they don’t allow refunds

I don't like to leave negative reviews, but after staying here and the absolute joke it's become among my family - I feel honesty is the best policy. When we arrived, I went to the front desk to check in. There was no one there, and no bell to ring to get their attention. A couple minutes passed, and a man came out dressed in street clothes with no visible way to tell he was an employee, and checked me in. Very short, straight to the point, and showed me the sheet with the WiFi password. Next, was the setup of the property. It's highly confusing to find your room, the front desk guy showed me a map but it was extremely brief and said it was for the front desk so there weren't any copies for guests to take. I felt like I needed it to find my room. The property itself was pretty filthy. The only thing that looked like the ad was the floors, clearly they TRIED to renovate at least one thing and make it look nice but it was very evident what they skipped over. The setup of our room was also strange. There was a large window with no screen on it right next to the door, which we put a box fan in to cool down but it did little to nothing to help how hot and humid it was. And we didn't feel safe leaving the window open all night so we slept in shifts basically so we could keep cool. The TV was tiny, the beds were uncomfortable, the bathroom counter was too short (I'm 5'6" not a giant by any means). It was just terrible. Won't go back.

This was one of the worse hotels, dirty and smelly. The bathroom was not cleaned from the prior guest. the floors were discussing. For the price charged, the least you could do is keep your property cleaner.

The room was really hot! No AC

Its quite and clean.

Good location. Nice bathtub for our little one.

Very basic room. No place to hang a jacket.

Room had a nasty smell. Can’t check in til 4pm but have to check out at 11 am. Not even given 24 hours to stay, that’s ridiculous. Coffee maker in the bathroom is nasty. Couldn’t sleep with how gross the room was. Will never stay there again. I would rather sleep in my car.

We were thrilled to find the room without air conditioning.

We didn't have to deal with an A/C remote.
