The room was dirty, one outlet that had one opening available, the ac barely worked, it smelled horrible, and had nothing to offer.

Was definitely not worth the money, around $200 a night to sleep in a room that smells like cigarettes and is infested with bugs.

When I went to the front desk to ask for a different room because ours smelled like smoke, the nice lady at the counter informed me that there was a window, and advised me to open it. When I tried to make sure I heard her right, she was nice enough to draw a window in the air with her fingers and mime opening it. It’s nice to stay at a place with such high quality service and helpful staff, equipped with timely advice when it’s needed.

The room had roaches! It was late and i had no choice but to stay. I refused to bring in my luggage because I didn't want to bring them with me. Then i was worried all night about someone breaking into my car to stael everything and i didn't get any sleep. Next time i will pay more attention to reviews!!!

Estaba bien, y el precio accesible, la limpieza estaba bien , sería bueno que la gente no fumara en las habitaciones, porque queda un olor a cigarro, y que hubieran unas plantitas afuera. Pero por lo general estuvo muy bien.

The place is very dirty. Sheets had dirty spots floor was sticky. The lady was very nasty she yelled at us for asking for new sheets she said she didn’t speak English and had to wait until the morning. I felt so humiliated I had my kids with me and couldn’t let them sleep there so we left. They wouldn’t refund us, just a run down place and very unfriendly

I never experienced a horrible stay at THE SHELTON until this past weekend. I encountered sooooo many water bugs everywhere. It was gross. Crawling all over my face. Never again.

Bed bugs, roaches and ants were all present in my room. Couldnt even stay there for the one night I paid for. No refunds. Waste of money. Wish I had taken pictures before I left.

I didnt expect much from the cheapest hotel in the area , but it was very disappointing. It was very pricey for a hotel that was dirty and falling apart. Burn holes in the sheets and covers, dirt on the floor and shower, paint chipping, and fridge was warm. The lady there was friendly but switched my room 3 times and had to grab different keys for them all. Such a waste of money and felt like i was going to get bed bugs from here .

The bathroom was filthy. There were 2 dead flies in the toilet and pubic hair on the seat. The towels were old and ratty and had hair in them. I considered trying to get a different room but I was so tired after being awake for over 24 hrs I wrapped a shirt around the pillow and went to sleep. In the morning I told the woman at the desk that maybe they forgot to clean that room. I wanted nothing just to let her know. She started yelling at me so I just left.

Filthy room, completely outdated, wall sockets loose, refrigerator and microwave didn't work, chipped and peeling paint stains on mattress and box springs. Had to strip beds and go to Walmart to buy new sheets and pillows so we could sleep on the disgusting mattresses. Sat on their bedspreads for five minutes and had itchy bites on us!

When I arrived to check-in, the gentleman in the office could not speak English; therefore, i had to sit in the car with the children for about 17 mins until someone else arrived who could check us in. After commuting 2 hrs to get there, it was disappointing. We reserved a non-smoking room but of course we received a room that smelled like an ashtray (it was horrible) and i had to request another room. We were moved to another room, and it had a stove BUT we were asked NOT to use it The fridge was unclean, although everything else appeared to be okay. The motel was close to many stores, which offered convenience but good luck getting out of the parking lot and onto the main road! Traffic is everflowing and the stop lights are blocks apart so you may be sitting there awhile. Oh and THEY LIED ABOUT THE WIFI!!! THERE ISNT ANY.....

Worst hotel I have ever booked with you guys. Air conditioner was broken, the room smelled like cigarettes, housekeeping had to be told multiple times to clean the room, and even after they “cleaned” the room was still dirty, the floor was never swept or mopped, towels still had hair on them, also police were at the one of the rooms in the motel for a man that was attacked, I overheard them say this is a known prostitution motel and asked the man if he was involved in any of that activity which caused him to be attacked by the female and her male accomplice! This hotel should be removed from this website immediately!

Why would anyone want to stay here? Room smelled of stale smoke, outdated furniture b not even a paved parking area. Very shabby. Office was not air conditioned and the worker not polite. Run for the hills or sleep in a park.

We stayed here for a night when we attended the Nj Jeep Invasion. Check-in was quick. Lot is a dirt lot so your car will be full of dust by the time you get out of there. Inside was extremely outdated & old looking. Price was best we can find at the time due to NJ Jeep Invasion taking place. Would stay again if it was only me & just needed an place to sleep for the night.

My stay at the motel was good. The staff was nice and the rooms were clean! The room could use a little touching up with the walls but for the little time we spent in the room it was just fine! Thanks for the great room service everyday! You kept us with clean towels and nice new sheets
