Americas Best Value Inn Marion, AR - Motel in Marion - 3635 I 55 &, USA

I decided to give a low rating because 1) my stuff in the room was moved and messed with constantly 2) my Bluetooth gaming headset was missing the transmitter after staying there a week for work 3) when I came to the room after work I noticed it missing and brought it the attention of the lady at the front desk and she denied her housekeeper would mess with anything in the room. Granted the housekeeper was an older lady but on a few rain days I noticed she had 2 younger kids that would be with her performing tasks. Since my gaming headset is basically useless without the transmitter and they can’t use it without headphones it was a total loss. So, stay here at your own risk. They were good with cleaning but you can’t mess with peoples’ stuff

Wonderful place to stay for the night. We had a clean comfortable room..hardwood floors. Beds comfortable and bathrooms clean. Lots of channels on the tv. And we ate from pizza inn who delivered to our room.. The prices were right on target. Last but not least the staff..they were friendly helpful and we felt comfortable here. The ONLY complaint we had was the continental breakfast. There was nothing to eat but cereal but there was no milk. We did however not get in there till 830am so I guess the others ate it all. Not a big deal.

I had driven 8 hours after working 8 hours and literally stopped at the first place I saw. The staff was friendly (only reason for not giving it a one) $75 for two queen beds. The check in guy was great; when he asked if upstairs was okay and I asked for downstairs due to sleeping kids with me and he obliged. That was the end of the pleasantries. The walls were paper thin. The people on both sides of us were fighting majority of the night(wee hours of the morning). It was right off the interstate so very loud (expected though). The room. Oh the room...the carpet was sticky. The bathroom was horrifying. There was trash on the floor where they had changed the toilet paper, but the roll was over 3/4 of the way gone! The tub had dirt & hair in it. The bathroom door wouldn't close. The toilet would run every 10 minutes. (The counter and sink had recently been replaced and were beautiful!)The ceiling was moldy and the texturing was falling off, some had already been removed in a giant sections. There was dusty spider webs going from the wall to the chair to the lights. The bed were clean, thankfully. The "breakfast" was corn flakes, a gallon of milk sitting on the counter, and a plastic box of donuts a man was carrying around eating out of...like they say, you get what you pay for. Yikes.

I had problems with my stay from the very beginning!! I was SUPPOSED to have a king room but when I went in the bathroom, the toilet bowl was full of poop. They switched me to a queen room because "nothing else was available" THEN the baseboard by the bathroom fell off which caused me to step on a screw that punctured my foot. They did nothing about that. On my last night that I was supposed to stay there, a RAT literally ran right past me!! I checked out around 12:30am and only got partially refunded for my stay!! The stay was horrible from the beginning. After me stepping on the nail (that hadn't fallen when I walked past the first time) the lady at the front desk had the nerve with attitude to act like it was my fault that I didn't see it smh stay ANYWHERE ELSE BUT HERE!!! They barely wanted to refund me for the one day!!!

The room was below average. The chairs were stained. Toilet didn't work right, the faucet in the tub was split, so I couldn't take a bath because the pressure of the water would split the faucet more. The stairs were rusted and rotten. I could see behind each step as I walked up. Trash was all outside. Staff was polite. Needing MAJOR RENOVATION!!!!

I would HIGHLY recommend going somewhere else. Although the staff was nice, this place is a dump. The room was disgusting, stains all over the carpet, all the bath fixtures were rusted, the furniture was peeling and appeared to have water damage. The road noise is horrific, all night long with a nearby train crossing that could be heard as well. Unless you desire to contract some type of disease, or are on a multi day meth binge, STAY AWAY...... Drive a couple miles past for some better, cleaner, safer options

Friendliest hotel staff, large spacious rooms, hardwood floors, newly renovated, best movie channels, large pool, right next door to a friendly, helpful auto mechanics shop. Felt right at home! Ha, do not want to leave! Came in with car problems late in the day, worst situation, but could not have found a better hotel with helpful friendly staff to have helped me. Hotel owner called the mechanic and made sure I was taken care of! By the time I leave, I’m going to miss this place and the friendly staff! Ever in the area I will def be back. Maybe even just to stop by and say hey to the friends I’ve made. Would def recommend staying here!

Unfortunately the motel is in a state of disrepair while being remodeled. The pool was unusable, had a coffeemaker that couldn't be used, the outlets by the mirror didn't work, the vanity & faucet were beautiful, but the faucet was loose. The tub faucet was loose too. The rack to hang your clothes on was pulling away from the wall, etc. Power strips were old & filthy, and the list goes on. Nothing looked like the advertised pictures. It was disappointing to say the least. Hopefully it will be a lot better after the remodeling is completed.
