10/10 Exceptional

Nice hotel

Pleasant and friendly staff. Comfortable and clean bed. Air-conditioning worked. Shower small stall door wouldn't stay closed all the way, but it got the job done. Maid service came when needed and did a wonderful job. Window wouldn't close all tbe way so there was a little noise from passing vehicles. Pool nice. Breakfast nice but no protein. I would stay here! Thumbs up for the price 👍
Monica, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Rodeway needs to take a tour of this property. It is unsafe for example the key card lock wouldn't work so I had to leave the door ajar to walk to my truck. The shower pan rocked to where it was unstable. And never told me they could close the breakfast early. I was in room 109 in Merced California
Darin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The room was clean and medium sized. It was showing its age. Torn carpet edging by the door, worn tile in restroom, sink mounting getting loose. It had TV, microwave, and minifridge. The TV was smaller than most motels. It's situated on the frontage street right next to Freeway 99 and is quite noisy. Also, the BNSF railroad line is near, and trains can be heard. The continental breakfast has a limited selection and the hours are short: only 7-9.
Larry, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Disgusting and very outdated

The hotel called me around 9 pm to see when I would be there, which I found strange. I informed front desk that I had 2 dogs the response was that they didn’t know that and luckily they had a room open downstairs. I made my reservation days in advance so I should have a room regardless. Our room was in the corner downstairs and smelt very strange and was muggy. The bathroom was very dingey and outdated. There was a large crack in the floor and the shower drained slow and the door wouldn’t close. While brushing our teeth we noticed the sink wasn’t draining. By the time we got into bed we noticed the sheets were still wet… we were disgusted and in a hurry to leave. Never. Ever. Would I stay here again. Whatever good reviews they have on here are very misleading. We preferred to drive through the night than stay at this sleazy place.
