Written by Ground State:

And ohhhhh what memories they were. The Melody Inn on Lundy's Lane had the worst reviews of the city. Here are but a few:

"Shouldn't even be called a motel. A waste of good land. The room was simply filthy. The smell was so bad my friend had to use his asthma puffer."

"Renting rooms at this hotel is a disaster. The bath tub was full of hair, the bathroom door was dirty from top to bottom, the window curtains were filthy, the screens were ripped, the windows had no locks, the floors were dirty, the air conditioning was so dirty it blew dirt all over the place. WE ALL NEED CHEAPER HOTEL/ MOTEL RATES BUT WE DON'T NEED FILTH."

"This hotel was a nightmare. We booked three rooms for two nights, all three of the rooms smelled so bad when you walked in, it would take your breath away. One of the rooms did not even have the bed made. All the sheets and covers were on the floor. The doors to the room would not lock right sometimes you could just push on the door and it would open, I had to put a chair in front of the door at night so my little kids could not get out and to feel a little safer."

"Me & my family members stayed here & this place was a dump! The pictures on there websites are so old & deceiving.There was no service. It stunk, water ran all night & the toilet too. Oh to top this off there was a Ramada Inn Trash can. It's bad when you have to steal a trash can from another business."

"Filthy hole in the wall. You can not shower because the water just dribbles out of the shower head. Mold and mildew in the shower. One of the other rooms the toilet leaked all over the bathroom floor. Dingy dirty curtains. All you have to do is push on the door and it will open from the outside."

Some friends and I stayed at a motel with reviews just as bad as this place last Summer. Sadly that motel is still functioning. My friend pulled back the sheets on her bed and the whole blanket had like a zillion cigarette holes through it. That's just one complaint.
