Hotel Rodeway Inn & Suites East / I-44 (Tulsa, USA)

The hotel is next to an RV sales lot and at the end of a cul-de-sac, dead end road … so it’s really quiet without being too remote. *Passing traffic isn’t much of a problem. Light sleepers, though, should ask for a room facing the fence … just to be on the safe side. There are plenty of nearby restaurants, including a good little Mexican, just round the corner.

The lobby is clean and attractive; a good first impression. Many rooms have been renovated so they’re freshly decorated and impressive. The pool area too, is clean, well maintained and doesn’t have that stomach churning smell of Chlorine.

Management and staff are super-friendly and helpful. If you’re a stranger to the area, you’ll soon know the best value places to visit and how to get there.

They state that there’s parking for trucks, but this is optimistic and limited to those of smaller dimensions. You might get a larger one in, but it will be an interesting exercise and demanding some perseverance.

The breakfast area is very small and cramped. You can’t sit in comfort to plan your day at leisure. Breakfast itself, doesn’t encourage you to hang around either. There’s not much of it, choice is very limited and ... the entire process is not a happy one.

The fitness room is very small and the equipment is very basic. Not worth bothering with, really.  The Jacuzzi is acceptably clean and effective – just!
