Budget Inn Lake Wales

It's not 5 star accommodations, but for a small inexpensive hotel, it far exceeded my expectations! It's super clean & up to date with lots of outlets & charging ports. Everything you need and nothing you don't. It even has the best hotel room coffee I've ever had! Extremely friendly & helpful staff as well.

The mattresses are hard. Could use a mattress topper to make it a little softer. And the lights are glary. I threw a T-shirt over the wall sconces to soften the lighting.

Overall the room was nice, good size, the beds were comfortable, and the staff was super nice. The overall value was great. The room had all the standard things coffee maker, fridge, and enough outlets to charge devices(without having to unplug things)

There were too many cars and not enough parking spots, and the room did have a mild smell. Outside of that there isn't anything I didn't like. So long as they got rid of the smell I would stay here again.

Right off Highway 60. The room was huge and it was very quiet. They have great rates right now. It is honestly the most solid feeling building! I think it could withstand a Cat 5 hurricane!

This property is being renovated. Our room had no bedside lamps or phone charging stations but it's a work in progress.

The rooms have been recently remodeled and they are large and comfortable. The bed was very good and the overall look of the room is appealing.

Just looking at the front of the lodge I really thought that I was going to be disappointed. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw my room. So the outside could use some sprucing up! When going to get something to eat I discovered that there are very rough neighborhoods right behind the hotel.(run down apartments and loiterring everywhere) so I was a bit concerned about that but had no problems.

Very clean, and the host are very kind.

It was clean outside and inside. Though the sheets were passable I think they should be updated with time, they can still be used.

It just needs a little touch-up. No big anything to complain about. The attendant could be a little more patient. He was a little short with me as I kept asking if he wanted my confirmation number.

The room was large, well lit with comfortable beds (a little high which made it hard to get into). The AC worked well and there was no smell of smoke (although the detector had a plastic bag tied around it). The coffee maker, microwave & fridge were all clean and worked well and the coat hangers were appreciated. There were plenty of soaps, shampoo & lotion in the dispensers. Even the parking lot was swept and tidy.

The handrail going up to the second floor needed repairing and I'm not sure how clean the carpet was (it felt a little sticky to bare feet).

Pretty low-key place. No amenities like breakfast or anything like that. But it was a nice place for the price. The room was clean and spacious. Great stay!

They did replace my towels during the day. I would suggest a "Do Not Disturb" door card or something to indicate that room service is not desired. I would rather not have my towels replaced for only a two night stay. This is certainly not a complaint. Just a suggestion.

This hotel is an old building but when I was in the room there was nothing old about it. It was cleaner more comfortable then rooms I paid over $200 for. Excellent refrigerator with good size freezer.

A lot of water set in the parking lot when it rained. I didn’t have to go to the car but it would’ve been challenging not to get my feet soaked.

The owner is onsite. He is very welcoming and friendly. The room we stayed in had been tastefully remodeled, it was clean and had a nice little refrigerator with a freezer that worked much better than ones I’ve used at more expensive hotel chains. There are excellent restaurants a short drive away.
