When booking a stay overnight, you want a good price, but you don’t want to stay in something awful. SavingAdvice.com looked at customers' reviews and came out with their 2025 list of the Dirtiest Hotel Chains. 

List of the Top 4 Hotel Chains with the Worst Reviews 

My in-laws booked a stay over the weekend and had a lousy experience. They called a couple of weeks in advance to make sure they had a wheelchair accessible room available. They double-checked again the day before and were assured all was in order. 

When they arrived, they were informed the rooms that are wheelchair accessible had been booked for weeks and they would have to take what was available. Their experience went downhill from there, and it turns out the motel they stayed at was number one on the list.
