We usually stay in the romantic room. I love the jacuzzi tub. The bed we always get a great sleep in. It would be nice if there was at least a movable clothes rack to hang your clothes on and a table to set and eat at. Just in case you want to have a romantic dinner.

The property needs a complete overhaul. Room setup stink. The sink slowly completely clogged. Water pressure for the shower was horrible. The only reason we stay there is because my wife smokes.

If you’re just looking for a cheap place to sleep for a few hours, this might work. But expect thin bedding, limited TV options, and a dated atmosphere. Our “non-smoking” room smelled like weed. The place could definitely use some TLC , working TVs, better bedding, and more effort to remove odors would go a long way.

The staff was kind and helpful. It was obvious some updates have been made to the property, so they’re heading in the right direction. However, there were other items that needed attention: e.g. our air conditioner was missing knobs and the window latch was broken. Also, the room had not been cleaned thoroughly. We found a number of items from previous guests.
- 5/5
The receptionist was friendly and let me check in and have access to my room immediately. The room was clean and had been renovated nicely. The bath towels could be bigger and thicker, too small.

Good hotel

Stayed here multiple times lol no problems it's a good place to stay at that don't require a deposit and better to book online first before going just easier and faster to get in

Whether it's a short overnight stay or a few days of work in the area, the Paxtent Inn consistently delivers great service and hospitality. Highly recommend it for business travelers or anyone looking for a dependable, welcoming place to stay.

Says property welcomes children, it does not explain that they are only welcome in certain rooms. In the room they claim they are not welcome is because there is a hot tub, again the sinage they have posted only says to not leave children unattended, not they are not allowed. We stayed 2 nights of a 4 night booking until we were informed we needed to leave because of having a child with us. I'm not sure how they didn't see the child with us considering the door is directly in front of check in desk and I was talking to my son as we were bringing our stuff inside. When I booked with expedia, I searched for 2 adults and 1 child and your hotel came up. I believe it is a false advertisement to say your hotel is child friendly without explaining that certain rooms do not allow children. The first 2 nights were great, room was clean and had everything we wanted but because of the huge inconvenience your no child policy in a child friendly hotel, this left us with having to scramble and settle for something we did not want because you could not accommodate us with what we needed in another room, we had to find stay elsewhere. I've sent corporate an email explaining what happened and may report to BBB about the way you or Expedia advertises your site/booking pages. You need to explain clearly that not your entire hotel welcomes children.

Nothing fancy but the hotel staff were very friendly. The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. No breakfast but the are several places close by to eat. If you want a good sit-down breakfast, go to Marie's restaurant. They have been there over 40 years.

Literally our bed was covered in stains and then when we asked for replacements, the guy came in and inspected it in front of us and said ohhh the stains are from him “bleaching it to get BLOOD stains out.” BLOOD STAINS. And then he gave us other sheets and they were stained and nasty as well. Front desk lady was kind and cordial. But place was completely gross in the room, especially the sheets.

I would definitely stay there again

We picked this property because of the price, but it’s a you got what you paid for. We weren’t there much so it wasn’t too big of a deal. The water pressure is awful but it was hot! There were pubic/beard hairS in the one bed so we used the other. The towels were SMALL!! Bring your own soap & shampoo because theirs is minimal.
- 5/5
Second time staying here no complaints and housekeeping did show up to take trash, take soiled lined and bring new wash cloths and towels, and enjoyed my time.

Staff wasn't very helpful. My niece and nehpews came to visit (not stay the night). The front desk agent said they need to leave the room or she was going to call the police. There was 0 disturbance, 0 noise complaints and again they were being picked up shortly and not staying the night. Also reeked of smoke even though we were supposedly in a non smoking room.

I liked this hotel. It was simple, basic, quiet, clean and most importantly I felt safe. I stayed here alone and felt very comfortable. That's about all I need in a hotel room. The bed and pillows were comfortable, the bathroom was clean, the room was clean and didn't smell which is very important. I forgot my cleaning wipes and asked the front desk if they had anything I could use, she gave me some cleaning spray and a cloth. The only thing I would complain about is the size of the towels, they are really small and thin, a little rough.
- 5/5
Nice place

The clerk said i could try and get the money back from expedia that was for the extra night that didn't use. I said keep money, use it to get a new mattress & clean the place... $368.00 over priced... pew pew pew

Kia & Asia, fantastic customer service, at the front desk. The room was immaculate. Very clean and had everything I needed. I would recommend this hotel to friends and family. I can't wait to stay there again. Thanks again, Kia & Asia, you rock!

The room was very clean and the bathroom was remodeled. The only problem I had was that the deadbolt lock was stuck and I had trouble unlocking the door. The front desk clerk was very attentive though. Also I felt that the mattress was too hard and uncomfortable.
- 5/5
Its not bad no complaints besides housekeeping things bc i work in housekeeping and got experience in cleaning the toilet could have been cleaned better and the bathtub i noticed it has couple hairs everything else was good wifi works fast, Nice big tv on the wall, cozy bed, working ac unit plus heat i would book again and the price is good especially if u got discounts or points

Nice clean rooms and bathroom, pillows could use some updating
- 2/5
Unfortunately, I had a family emergency and had to leave early around noon. I notified the front desk around 1pm and asked for a refund for the following night's stay, since I wouldn't be there. They said they'd call me back right away with an answer. Of course, they never called me. I've been emailing them as well with no reply. So I wasted over $100. I'll never stay here again.

The staff at this hotel was wonderful! We needed a place to stay Becuase we were attending the World Cup at MIR! It was super last minute and they accommodated our needs and we found a hotel that was only a 20 min drive from the raceway

Non-smoking room on a non-smoking floor stinks like smoke. Outdated everything. Stains on furniture and carpets. Lobby is covered with protective glass that gives a bad neighborhood vibe. Yellow bath, paint falls off from ceiling in bathroom. Sorry, but it is on a level of a motel. I do not understand how it got 7.8 reviews... This hotel should be around $50 per day in 2024.

Cons: Facility reeked of smoke, but my room was OK Chain on the door was missing. For a single female traveler this is important. Bath towels tiny and thin, I had to use two. Internet not working and cell signal not getting through, I think due to the cement blocks the hotel is built out off. No blanket, just a sheet. I do not recommend.

Clean room, but AC was moldy. Updated bathroom. Lots of noisy foot traffic on floor above until early morning.

Thought I booked a non smoking room but when I got there they said I booked a smoking room and they were unable to give us a non smoking room. Understand but we never smoked and the room smell was terrible..........Thankfully we were only there 1 night. Likely will not ever book there again because of being not so clean either....
- 3/5
Ok place to spend a night, if you are on a budget. The staff is fantastic, but the hotel is rather old. The hallways and office smelled like smoke and weed, but luckily not my room.
- 2/5
I will start off by saying the Staff was good. Helpful and nice. But first thing to greet me when I walked in was a over whelming smell of Marijuana. The room was meh the mattresses were Hard the pillows were thin and tiny and the shower walls had hair all over them, looked like a Yeti showered before me. Location was on a main road so anything you needed was close by.

Room doesn’t have beds, it has cots. Entire facility, especially our room, smelled like skunk weed and cigarettes. Wash cloths full of holes. Not much rest sleeping in this environment!

I am a smoker and usually smoking rooms smell like ash trays. Patuxent Inn impressed me right from opening the door to my room. It was clean and odor free with equally clean and odor free towels and bedding. I would recommend to anyone who enjoys truly clean accommodations.
- 2/5
Just very, very nasty. Only because we couldn't book somewhere else that we had to stay horrible never ever. Again? Really, really blood on the floor. From someone using a hypodermic needle. You can tell from the blood spots. And they didn't even bother to clean it up very Dusty. Not 1 person was friendly or welcome me. Whole visit.

I didn’t appreciate being called 30mins prior to check out. I paid my money to stay until check out (11am) and felt harassed about it. I can understand if I was there post checkout time but that was not the case. If I paid for my time I don’t expect to be bothered by the staff during my allotted time. When explaining this to the staff they got very defensive about me criticizing the situation and really didn’t care about how it looks from a guest point of view. Their attitude was just as cheap as the room prices and amenities. I guess you get what you pay for.

The room was disgusting. There were stains all over the bedding. The smell was terrible, the room hadn't even been dusted. There was rust in the shower. The lady at the counter was not friendly. I had to wait for her to finish smoking to come and check me in. The manager, Mistry, does not care. Will not give a refund. We had to stay in the filthy room because we were traveling through town and it was 11pm at night. You are better off sleeping in your car.
