This property needs major upgrading. Lobby is dark and grungy, it took 5-10 minutes for a simple check in. The room was filthy-walls were black, holes in the sheets. Room had no amenities to speak of. Only stayed for a few hours to rest while traveling. Not even worth it for that. Avoid at all costs!

A friend of mine from out of town, and who does not have internet, surprised me today and told me she was taking the train with her two small kids to Effingham to treat them to a hotel night and indoor swimming. What a great idea I thought at first....I picked her and the kids up at the train station... More

My boyfriend and I came to Effingham for his cousins wedding and we wanted a cheap place to stay for two nights. We decided on the Rodeway Inn because it was cheap and near the location the reception was going to be held. When we checked inn the boy working the front desk was nice, a little slow but nice...

This was the worst hotel I've ever stayed in...nothing worked! The walls and woodwork were dirty and plaster had some holes. The toilet seat was cracked! We took a tour of the pool, and the painted concrete floor was chipped and worn. The hotel advertised a hot tub, but it did not work, and appeared to have been inoperable for... More

This is one of the hotels that CLC has listed. They should remove it. The room smelled musty. The TV remote did not work. One thing positive the bathroom was clean. The morning breakfast was space and the cereal was old. Other wise I was able to sleep. Should have read tripadvisor first. Will know better next time.

When we pulled in it looked pretty shady, but we thought we would try it anyways. So we got our room which was on the second floor. When we walked in the fridge did not work, the whole room was scary, the walls, door, and door frame were filthy. When I pulled back the sheet and blanket I found hair... More

We stayed at ths hotel and are convinced we ended up bitten by bed bugs. The room was booked while we were on the road with points and we had just driven 700 miles and were tired and just wanted a bed to sleep in. The man who checked us in was very friendly but it was down hill from... More

Call me a daredevil but I read reviews and if their bad I don't give it too much weight. I have been pleasently suprised with several hotels that have had horrible reviews but I am not very picky. This however, was just ridiculous!! The floors were soaking wet, my "non-smoking" room smelled so bad that it made all the clothes... More
