Knights Inn Boardman

Mark

The Knights Inn shares many similarities with Americas Best Value Inn in Boardman. In many ways, my review of the latter fits perfectly with the former. I'd urge you to read that review and apply the same to the Knights Inn. If I were to reiterate/add some comments specific to this motel? First, I have vivid memories of this place when I stayed here with my family in the late-70s/early-80s. Those were clearly the peak years for this property, as much of the interior of my room looks as if it wasn't updated after it shuttered and the reopened. Cases in point? The god awful carpet and the suspect bed covers. Second, this is an indie hotel, though it is--like Americas Best--tethered to the questionable heft of the once great RLHC. Third, angry reviews often seem to be a function of the problems with the reviewer, not the hotel. Sure, some things are likely to go wrong at a hotel this old, with this lack of updates. But look yourself in the smudged mirror and ask: what were you thinking when you booked a night at this place? Fourth, there are some upgrades (the curtains, some of the paint) and some true positives (strong A/C, good water pressure . . . at least in my room, fast internet, pleasant check-in process). As some others noted: this is a budget motel for the those wishing to spend south of $100. In this day and age, this motel is what you get. Is it a value? Not necessarily. But it is priced as it should be in this market with the cost of lodging having gone up and up in recent years. Would I stay here again? Sure. I'd also add that I find the lack of apostrophes in both motels' names comical. But that is really beside the point (of this review, at least).

It's an older motel. The lady was nice gave us a great rate, but they need to hire someone to check the folks that clean the rooms. I found garbage hidden under the toilet tank,scum and hair in the tub (gross) and hair on the floor.. over all. I give it a 2

You get what you pay for. The ownership has great costumer service! There was a fridge n microwave in the room. Free breakfast in the morning. The Mexican restaurant out front is delicious. If ever passing through again I wouldn't hesitate to stay Agustin

Pretty much what you'd expect from sub-$100 a night room. The good-Quiet enough and there is a decent Mexican restaurant right on site. Barb, the receptionist, is friendly and helpful. The Bad-Funky, moldy smell in room. Dated. Wall outlets pretty tired and warn out...items plugged in don't stay in. Electrical tape was holding tv remote together. Not sure I would stay again but it was a roof over my head on a long trip and better than trying to push through when I was tired.
