Parkside Inn Fresno

Room was in very bad condition with bad smell. Mattress all dirty and with holes. Furniture in bad condition. Not mentioning the bathroom... Motel is situated near highway and foodcorner so it is noisy. Black widow on the stairs to the room and cockroaches running on the floor. After the stay my booking was cancelled by the personel so I could not comment on the conditions they offer.

I like the proximity to the freeway and it was easy to find, but not in the best neighborhood. It was nice to have WiFi access because the television was a pain to use. There was no breakfast offered, but I only needed to stay one night by myself and the room price was low through booking.com. I would not pay full price for the room, but would go somewhere else and pay more if I had anyone else with me.

I booked a room with a single king size bed and was "upgraded" to a room with two queen size beds. I didn't need another bed in the room for just one person. The room didn't have a noticeable smell until I turned on the air conditioner and cigarette smell came out even though it was a no smoking room. The air conditioner control panel had little bits of "stuff" and it was pretty obvious that it hadn't been cleaned for a while. The room only had one dim light fixture in the room above the TV and the lamps next to the beds in their room pictures were no longer there and no outlets for the lamps. I'm glad I didn't need to read. There was only one chair in the room. Fortunately it was just me staying there, but if there were two or more people then it would be a problem. Turning the TV on or off requires pressing the "on" button. Changing channels was very annoying and takes about 30 to 45 seconds each time. Every time you tried to changed to another channel or try some of the other buttons on the remote, a message would pop up, saying that the cables to the television are not High Definition and you had to press the "EXIT" button for it to put the television into "standard" for viewing, but it didn't work. The bathroom had two small and thin bath towels and a hand towel for a bath mat. I needed both towels in order to dry myself and I am not a big person. The sink area had one face towel, no hand towel, no garbage can, and no tissues. The walls were painted relatively recent, but they were not cleaned very well. The ceiling above the shower had some mildew growing and was not painted recently. The inside lock on the front door was missing a piece and the door frame showed that it had been kicked in and was poorly repaired. At least they could have painted it so it would be less obvious that the door had been kicked in.

TV wasn't working and I found a little mouse un the bathroom ugh!
