I have live there for some time and I have had no problem with it. I myself have a flat screen TV that I paid for myself and it has sat out for years and no one has bothered it. But there has been some staff that has been sketchy. But that is at all hotels. The ones they have now are good. I have lived at the BUDGET INN for six years and I have seen things go in and out of hear. But I have seen things change over the years. But it is in my opinion it is a working mans hotel.
