We had roaches in two different rooms. The property smelled like mold and weed. Stay there at your own risk.

We drove through the parking lot. Saw a drug deal and a motel that is rotting away. Paper over some windows. We had a truck full of my items that were going to have to stay in truck overnight. Did not feel safe leaving the truck in the lot. Did not check in. Went elsewhere. Lost the $, but it is so inaccurately displayed on Expedia, I don’t think I will use Expedia again

This place should have been condemned and torn down years ago. This place is a dumpster that is meant for Methany and Haroldoin, not travelers visiting family. The manager and his wife are the most miserable people ever. His wife looks like she’s one vacuuming away from offing herself with the cord. Their idea of “breakfast” is old stale cereal, waffle mix that is 3/4 oil and moldy old fruit. The toilet in my room had a big glob of blood and a clot at the base. Nobody came to clean it for three days. I didn’t use my bathroom for 72 hours, choosing to walk to the fast food place and do my business. I showered at the gym. Luckily I bring my own sheets and blankets/pillows everywhere I travel because Methany and Haroldoin left stains. I had no choice but to stay as this website refused to refund me. Thanks Expedia. You truly are some greedy MFs to keep renting this landfill out to people.

Convenient, Clean, Affordable
I have always found that Quality Inn is a convenient, clean, and affordable location in Carbondale. A person can catch the bus nearby at the Kroger store or across the highway at Walmart. Also, there is a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant about one block down from the motel.

A good hotel for traveling on a budget. The staff was friendly and helpful in a special request while there. It was a busy time in Carbondale but they handled it with professionalism and good grace.
