Guest Reviews
- Guest (1/5): -
- George (2/5): - Nothing.
- Lathan (8/5): I’m going again - Great Okay
- gary (2/5): - Sorry to state the room's conditions were TERRIBLE. After check-in, entered the room and did a quick review of the bathroom and beds. Pulled the blankets and sheets back and that's when BED BUGS were seen; not just 1but a lot. We got out of the room immediately. All told we were in the room less than 5 minutes. Extremely disappointed that these conditions would exist and perhaps seen acceptable. Only wished I took pictures but just wanted to get out of the room before the Bed Bugs had a chance to get into our belongings.
- Lisa (2/5): Cockroachs - After being in the room for about 4 hours I saw cockroaches. The front desk wouldn’t refund me.
- Lisa (6/5): Good for the price - Well… it’s pretty good for $90 a night. Doesn’t smell great but I didn’t see any bugs. The staff was super friendly and helpful.
- Carlos (6/5): - The place needs more cosmetics attention
- Dorothy (2/5): - The staff were all really nice. But the room had roaches crawling on the walls and floor in the bathroom
- Christina (10/5): - Wonderful experience
- ceyanna (4/5): - Front desk attendant was very rude
- Verified traveler (6/5): Excellent location but unclean - Dead bugs all over floor. Sheets were stained and had cigarette burns. Kitchen faucet was missing and water not working. Cobwebs on ceiling. Bathroom had hairs in sink and stains on walls.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Crack den - The room smelled like a crack den. The places was old, carpets were filthy and it looked like a crack den. I left after 15 minutes and went to a hampton inn.
- Hollie (2/5): - Opened to door and was hit with a horrible moldy smell, dead bugs on the table tops etc, and dead bugs loaded in the toilet and several dead in the tub. Left right away and they wouldn't even do a refund. I had a child and an elderly mother with me.
- Deborah (6/5): - The room was good. Good location. Staff was also good.
- Ralph (10/5): - It was quite comfortable
- Christian (1/5): -
- Joseph (10/5): Nice Stay - Very nice staff !
- Mary Jane (2/5): Disgusting place it is need of total repair. - Our power went out for 4 days and there was a major heat wave headed so without electricity and air conditioning we decided to fine a reasonably priced place to stay. Close to home. This place is in a lovely neighborhood area on a few miles from us. Although I never really was in there before I thought it would be okay. Well I was wrong the place was in very poor condition. It was in need of many repairs and It was filthy. We did not stay. I really wish I could get a refund but there wasnt any one around when we left and it was only 10 minutes after we checked in. This place should NOT be on any rental app it is in no condition for people to stay even in an emergency like ours!
- Frederick (10/5): - The gentleman was very accommodating he gave me a third floor room and I went and did some shopping and came back and decided that I wanted ground floor and he changed it with no problem
- Ryan (2/5): - DO NOT STAY HERE
Creepest huge mirrors in the room and on a complete dead space on the wall, the cameras follow you to your room and can see into the room had to walk out and leave for my wife’s safety, try at your own Risk I warned you
- Matthew (8/5): - Affordable and quier
- Christopher (6/5): Dive - Cheap dive motel looks like it hasn’t been updated since the 70’s but was quiet
- Angela (6/5): - Visably stained sheet. Bug in bathroom. Lamp with blown lighbulb. Pretty outdated, kinda smelly. Wouldnt stay here again.
- victor (2/5): - Not good at all
- Labdoun (8/5): Very good -
- Charles (2/5): Third world hotel - This is a third world hotel.
Nasty!
Does Media Pa. Have building code inspectors?
Very dirty hotel.
I will never use Hotels.com again.
The real hotel is nothing like the photo's.
- Mohammed (9/5): Superb -
- Matthew (4/5): disappointed - Dirty and run down place. Beds and pillows were uncomfortable. Smoke hole in blanket. Room smelled of smoke even though nonsmoking room. Only good things were the location and the hot shower.
- King (8/5): - Ok
- Lamon (10/5): - Come here all the time!
- Louis (6/5): - repairs to room incomplete. Nightstand fell apart, too few plugs for phones and computer.
- Alex (4/5): Disappointing - The room was freezing when we arrived
- Jamar (2/5): - It was filthy in there no hot water roaches everywhere barely any heat just discussing
- Lamon (6/5): - Everything was fine.Got there late,but was taken care of.Been coming here for years. Only thing was there was no # available,the phone didn't work on the right of you as it says when you walk in,and the water was cold.
- Lamon (8/5): - Liked it. Been coming here for years when i used to live in the area,so coming from outta town was good to know they still reliable. Water took a little long to warmup,but other than that,no issues...
- Cynthia (10/5): - Everything was good
- Cary (2/5): This Hotel is trash! - This hotel was filthy. It hasn’t been cleaned or painted for years.
I didn’t even check in.
I stayed at the Hampton Inn Suites.
I should be reimbursed for the full amount of money I paid for the Media Inn Suites. If I am not reimbursed, I will never use Hotels.com again.
- Terrance (3/5): Poor - There was a lot of good channels on the tv. Cockroaches , the towels burned my skin after getting out of the shower. Not sure what they wash them In.
- Rachel (8/5): - It’s a good place to stay but note you CANNOT have visitors
- Ricardo (4/5): Disappointing -
- Jenna (7/5): Good -
- Cynthia (5/5): Passable -
- DEONTRA (6/5): - N/A
- Melbert (2/5): - Needs to clean it more often fr
- Jennifer (2/5): - Room has roaches. Microwave nor tv workers also everything in the room
Is stained looked like the room need to be cleaned with a hose and then remodel
- Quamay (2/5): - When we arrived it looks like that hotel from a horror movie. Random people standing outside, made us feel very uncomfortable to the piont my husband said we need to take everything out of our car for the night, in fear of being vandalized. We could not check in, because there was not an attendee at the desk. The hotel lobby/waiting area was not clean. The carpet looked like it had been there since 1980. Stained and dirty. There was dust everywhere. Just down right disgusting. I would have not felt safe staying there not even for one not. This was the worst hotel/inn I have ever attempted to stay at. Needless to say we did not check in and left. Took the 3.5 hour drive home.
- Paul (2/5): - The room was dirty and smelled like a smoke filled room. When we said it was unacceptable nothing was said and an alternative was not offered despite appearing to be nearly devoid of any other guests. We never checked in and left immediately. I am dumfounded that a place like this remains in business in this day and age.
- Madagbeh (6/5): Pleasant -
- Brad (6/5): - Well located and reasonably priced, but run-down and disquietingly shabby in appearance. Some of the room's equipment did not function. But at least the internet worked.
- Amartya (8/5): - It is conveniently located near Swarthmore campus and is also close to restaurants and a Mall. The property is old but the managers try to take care of things once told about problems.
- Sallie (2/5): - It's a prostitution ring being run outta there and everyone knows it
- NICK (2/5): Dirty Room - Ended up asking for a refund and finding a different hotel.Room was dirty and strong foul odor.
- Naim (6/5): - A decent hotel just off the Blue Route. The room had a hint of cigarette smoke smell.
- Mario (4/5): - No es cómo se ve en las fotos.no preguntan si uno prefiere para no fumadores
- Alexander (6/5): - Place needs obvious work, towel holder held up by duct tape, closet hanger holder collapsed on us, only using 3 avail hangers, we put it back together ourselves. Let over dirty wash rag from former renter. For the price, somewhat expected, but still....!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Not the worst place to stay - It’s not the best place I’ve ever stayed but also not the worst. This hotel is clearly not new and the updates that have been done seem haphazard at best. The guy at the desk was friendly but couldn’t get my credit card to “work” so he suggested I just get cash at the ATM down the street. That seemed shady but since I only needed a place to sleep for one night, I paid cash. Also, there were several signs posted about no smoking but the very small lobby area reeked of cigarette smoke. (Room was odor free)
- DAMEION (10/5): - Have stayed here several times it's one of the few options in Media. Never had any issues
- Michael (10/5): - My go to place when I wanna getaway from it all.
- George (2/5): Hotel - The rooms that we had the door was off the bathroom and the TV was off the wall. And the remote was not working. We had to switch to three different rooms. And the last room we had the bulb in the lamp was broken.
- Sontrice (2/5): - Floor was wet & mildew, mattress comforter had cigarette burns in it & the room was just not what it looked like online! DO NOT STAY HERE
- Lance (2/5): - This property is old, run down, and dirty. We left a day early despite it being non refundable. That is how bad it is.
- Reyes (8/5): - No complaints
- john (6/5): - there is so many things this place could do to make it a better place, large rip in the carpet going up the stairs from the main check in, room was ok but again with a little attention to detail this room could and should of been much better. First impressions needs to be addressed. Pull up the carpet and laminated the floor, so much cleaner. One room at a time
- Lori (4/5): - The room wasnt vaccume d , there was patches in the walls and the linen and blankets were filthy. Bugs in the bathroom
- victor (10/5): - Best
- Stephanie (2/5): - Don’t stay here. Spend the extra money to stay across the street or literally anywhere else. The place is rancid and should not be open for business.
- Lothario (6/5): Pleasant -
- victor (10/5): - Good
- victor (10/5): - Good place
- Nathan (2/5): - Bathroom doors that don't shut, stains across the walls, unbearably noisy AC, empty lobby, used soap in the bathroom.
- Karen (2/5): - I liked nothing. I'm not a particular person when I stay in motels but this was the worst experience in my 58 yrs. I've never asked to change rooms anywhere I've stayed except here. The door jamb & lock were broken in room 1. you could just push on door from outside & get right inside. Moved to room 2. Wheelchair access room which seemed ok until we walked into the bathroom, where the drain apparently had overflowed and left tp, dead bugs and poop all over the bathroom and shower floor!
Next #3 Room was up 4 flights and it had to be opened with a key which there was only one and the manager had to open the door but not give us the key so we can go in and out. So after my friend left I couldn't leave the room whenever I wanted without calling the manager to let me back in! Needless to say I checked out early and the property refuses to give me a refund!
- Verified traveler (2/5): Infested room - As soon as we entered the room, two roaches welcomed us. And there was an used path towel and soap in the bath room, which clearly indicated that room is not clean and well prepared
- Samantha (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (5/5): Passable - Location Asked for extra towels. Was told they would be placed in the room. They were not.
- gregory (6/5): - The owner was amazing services. Great place is just a little bit beat up.
- Kristine (2/5): - Rooms in poor condition and smelled stale. Trash in hallway. Rooms not cleaned daily.
- Anonymous (7/5): Good -
- Mary (8/5): - Nick was accommodating. The room could’ve been more updated but all in all for the price it was ok.
- Theodore (1/5): Never again. You get what you pay for; so much for trying to save a couple of bucks. - This place is a total dump. I killed three cockroaches in two days. The bathroom in our initial room was so filthy we had to request another room. The smell of the non-smoking room was obnoxious; I couldn't wait to get home to take a shower.
- Corliss (1/5): Bad - Not much Most all
- Jeremy (3/5): Never coming back - The staff was nice and helpful, with the expectation of never fixing our door. The whole hotel was in rough shape. The staff was nice and helpful, with the expectation of never fixing our door. We had to call the desk every time because our keys didn't work. Poorly done rehab. Rooms smelled like smoke even though no smoking signs were everywhere. Cleanliness was questionable. Not coming back.
- Robert (4/5): Avoid f possible - Not so good--hard to park-very old and needs a lot of TLC
- Robert (10/5): - love Nick
- Robert (10/5): Nick the man - Nick is the best manager ever
- Quentin (4/5): - Very dirty.
- Devon (10/5): - The proprietor was extremely accommodating to our late arrival and worked with us to figure out parking of a large trailer. Place was clean, just old. Great affordable option for travelers, would definitely stay again.
- Sarah (1/5): The worst of all - I didn’t even stay the night at all.. no one was at the desk I waited 30 mins ans finally left.. put in cancellation.. it’d the worst hotel/motel I have ever gone to in my whole life.. the worst Demolitions
- Mary (5/5): Passable -
- Phyllis (6/5): Location was good. - The lights in the room weren't fully functional. The bathroom was clean.
- Marvaline (10/5): The staff is always pleasant.! They treat you like family - The staff is very courteous and helpful. They go over and above to make comfortable. N/A
- Anonymous (4/5): Disappointing -
- Verified traveler (4/5): - This hotel is not what it once was. Don't think we will be renting with them again.
- Samantha (2/5): Very poor - the location they weren’t honest and up front when trying to add another night. wasn’t happy that I complained about the fridge and microwave having mold and the wires being cut.
- Jackie (2/5): - I was looking for a simple room that I could work remotely from while visiting family in Media. I was very disappointed most basic amenities were so bad. The water did not warm in the sink and the shower only got lukewarm, not all outlets worked, wifi was very slow, the remote got stuck, there was dirty clothes in the bathroom, one bed was missing a blanket, the toilet paper was very cheap and almost out when I arrived, and there was no cleaning provided for my week long stay. This building is in bad disrepair.
- Anonymous (1/5): I would not stay there again. - location it was not clean. Sheets were stained. Floors looked like they were never vacuumed. the microwave oven kept shutting off. I had to restart it several times.
- Patricia (2/5): - This facility serves a financially-challenged population, Facility appeared clean but rudimentary. Lobby/check-in area disappointingly unappetizing.
- Freddy (8/5): - Great location, last minute booking .
- Theodore (4/5): - Our room smelled musty like it had been wet in the room . We think we saw little gross reddish drops of something on the bathroom floor . Walk outside & you could see torn screens on the other rooms windows , it was a very disappointing place to stay . It was cheap & I know now why . Go to the Hampton across the street .
- John (10/5): -
- Eric (2/5): Dirty - It was very disgusting, it was bed bug invested. I did not even stay the night I end up driving 2hrs back home.
