Rodeway Inn Findlay University Area

We chose this motel because it was cheaper than most in the area, near the job site, and we expected to be in town for a few months with family on a business trip. There were three of us in a two bedroom suite, but they supplied towels for only one person for the whole stay. We bought our own, and eventually had to buy toilet paper too after repeatedly going to get more and being met with complaints. On our last night, the manager came into the room to ask us not to use so much toilet paper because people were complaining. We hadn't had trouble with it before he and the plumber came in to work on it. They would barge in without knocking. Then the water was shut off without warning or explanation, and nobody offered another room. We struggled to use the bathroom until a coworker in a neighboring room let us use his. We never heard anything more from the staff. The cleaning was poor. The cleaner used a filthy mop and a spray bottle of soap, with no mop bucket. We had to ask for our sheets to be washed, and then waited a long time for them despite a room full of clean sheets and towels. A few rooms down, people were coming and going, and there was an incident where police were called, but the manager still let those people stay. If you choose this place, good luck. I wouldn't give it even one star if that were an option.

The room had mold around the tub, gaps in the flooring, damaged parts of the vanity, and uncomfortable beds. A metal bar sticking out from the bed frame was hidden under the blanket, and I nearly hit my leg on it. There was no bath mat, so the shower floor was slippery, and the damaged toilet tank lid wobbled when I used it. I thought it might fall. We didn't see bugs or notice odors that would have made us leave, but the AC compressor was loud. I reported the safety issues, and the room didn't look appealing. We stopped because we were exhausted and needed about six hours of sleep. I waited to post until my card showed the $25 deposit hadn't been kept. I usually take care with reviews because I know they affect a business. We would've been better off sleeping in our truck. We won't recommend this place. Cheap really does come with low expectations.

Cockroaches were crawling on the walls, and the carpeting and walls were filthy and badly worn. The whole place needs a deep clean and updating. The owners and management should be ashamed of this motel. I wonder where the health inspectors are, and how lodging in this condition can be considered safe. If you need a room and this is the last motel available, sleep in your vehicle or keep driving.

Awful place. There were bugs in the rooms, along with spider webs and cigarette burns on the sheets and blankets. The front desk worker was disrespectful, showed no understanding about the poor condition of the rooms, and had no customer service. He refused to refund us and said to leave if we didn't like it. I won't be coming back.
