I understand that for the price, the rooms were to be no frills. The room was clean. I understand the peeling paint, the peeling bathtub, the holes in the sheets. There was a coffee maker and yet no coffee. I did not like that the windows did not have a screen on them and that the AC pumped out warm... More

The room was filthy and grimy and the staff and management are cheap and inconsiderate. There is central heat and air that is controlled by the management at the front desk. It is set to turn on if the temperature gets above 78 degrees. When I called the front desk to speak to the manager about my hot room I... More

This place was horrible! Our room had two queen beds. One of the beds was a queen size mattress placed atop a full size bed frame (tacky). The toilet didn't work right. There were pen markings on the wall. The non-smoking room smelled like smoke. Pay an extra 30 bucks and stay some place else.

On a recent business to Modesto I wanted to stay at a hotel under $70 . I first booked a Choice Hotel the Roadway Inn in Modest. To keep this post short it was a disaster. Frankly, it was my worst hotel experience in over 5 years of traveling. Planned to stay the week but checked out first thing the... More

Past experiences with Heritage Inns & Vagabondhave always been satsifactory; so no problem with booking there. Needed to be close to hospital, which it is. Price quoted on the phone (AAA) was not the price I was charged upon checkout. (Ten dollars more per nite). Because of unexpected extended visit (due to husbands surgery), each day I called in to...

Other than that, it's clean a little on the older side but functional. Took dog for small fee greatly appreciated that. Felt safe walking dog in... More
