The owners are very laid back. Very kind the rooms have space and some privacy witch is great. The kids can run and be kids. Get them in before dark and all can be great. These wonderful folk don't make u feel like u have to walk on egg shells. And animals are welcome

Was welcomed felt like I didn't have to look over my shoulders

Do not believe I or my car would be safe after dark.  Room was dingy, stunk of cigarettes.  At  4 p.m. without using room,returned key to manager, who I must say was a pleasant lady, and moved down street to Superior Suites, which it certainy was!  She said she would remove 'pending' hold on my American Express, reassured me next day as well when I dropped by.  Transaction was on 13 April 22, still on my statement, I willl advise AX to disregard it.  One star is for pleasant lady who I sympathize with.

left after I saw state of room and noisy, suspicious characters in residence or hanging about,,

Most disgusting place I’ve ever stayed at with terrible customer service. We called the day before and asked about early check in and they promised we could check in as soon as we got off the plane. When we tried to check in, they told us we had to wait an hour and every time we called to check if it was ready they added another hour. In total, we waited five hours for a room to be ready. When we finally got into the room, we noticed several roaches. Also, the cover blanket was covered in stains and the sheets on one of the beds had what looked like a blood stain on it. We decided to tough it out for the night because we were exhausted, but the bed was broken and slanted which made it ridiculously uncomfortable. We checked out the next day and were able to get a refund for the rest of the stay, but if I could give 0 stars I would. Do yourself a favor and choose literally any other cheap option in the Mesa area other than this dump.

Don’t stay here

Cockroaches in Kitchenette, silverfish in bathroom, floor so dirty that feet were black on bottom if walked on without shoes, missing plug cover in bathroom, fridge and microwave both very dirty; (had to clean ourselves before use), too many negatives to mention. The only positive is it didn't have bed bugs though the bedspread looked 20 years old with stains, dust, and ripped seams.

Filthy dirty, non-caring management

My husband was having knee surgery and we wanted a place that he could recover in . The place advertised long term rentals but when I stopped by they had no incentive to offer this opportunity.  There were no offers of any kind, in fact we were discouraged to stay there for this purpose.

Doesn't seem very clean. Inquired about long term rental and they were not very interested.

First, this was my fault for not following the golden rule of ' when in doubt, check the room out'.  I didn't, so my bad.  If this wasn't the worst room we've stayed in, it is very near the top.  I don't think the floors have been washed in years, the closet doors were hanging against the wall, the toilet hadn't been flushed ( yes, we probably should have just walked).  To turn the light on in the main area, you had to reach a chain on the ceiling.  Good thing I'm not shorter.  On the plus side, the sheets were clean, and the bed was actually comfortable.  Oh ya, no towels (they were brought up after I mentioned that)  The fridge, microwave and t.v. worked.   And even though they had a pool and hot tub, I wouldn't dare use them, and a shower was out of the question.

STAY AWAY!

If I could rate this hotel and experience a 0 or negative number I would. I booked through booking.com and was very happy wit them and the customer service. I booked two months in advance as I was flying in from Ny for a wedding. I arrived in AZ and got a call from the manager Mary.”yeah are you still coming as we are filling up.” Well of course but what should them filling up have to do wit my reservation? Hmm red flag. I finally arrived after flying all day and then driving. They didn’t have a room for me there and were sending me to another property. Ugh ok. I drove down there and they did not have a room for me either. Then this lady tells me they I’ll just put me into an apartment they own and I am not to complain as the price I was locked into was way affordable for what I was getting. She gave me the address and I was off to the sketchiest apartment complex. The lady was mad I refused to park my rental car on the street. A nice lady walked me up to my room and helped carry my bag as my hands were super full. I got in the apartment she said she just cleaned for me and it wreaked of marijuana. I then say thanks and close the door. Tried to lock it and it literally wouldn’t lock. I would lock it and the door would open right back up. Ok called Mary and told her this doesn’t work. In the meantime I used the bathroom only to discover barely any toilet paper and no back ups. I called again and said I hate to be a pain but there was no way this works. The lady who helped with my bag returned and tried to lock the door herself swig it indeed did not work. She moved me to another apartment in which the AC didn’t work and lights didn’t work. Furniture was peeling and bugs were on the floor. I remembered to no refund sign at the colonade and began to cry. I flew across country and I didn’t Ben feel safe. Or clean. I called booking.com and got the best customer service. The rep even called Mary and Mary was nothing but rude to her and said. “O we tried giving her several rooms and she didn’t like them” sorry my expectation was a clean place to walk into with a door that locked. Because I booked through another party I am in fact getting my full refund back and the manager. Mary was not happy and called me arguing. I left and went to my friends parents home and just had to warn others. 

Nightmare

The Colonade has recently renovated their rooms. With brand new beds & bed spreads, new flooring, new draperies with new cornices, and new chairs, the rest is old and should have been replaced as well. 
Upon arrival, I was a bit concerned with the number of loiters I observed but later learned they're full-time residents. Nonetheless, being watched by so many was disconcerting. I was pleasantly surprised to see the room had recently been remodeled. I sat my sandwich down on the kitchenette counter and was thoroughly disgusted by the cockroaches swarming on it less than a few minutes later. In my haste to rid myself of this plight I spilled my cranberry drink. I grabbed the only wash cloth in the room to clean up what should have been only red. Imagine my further disgust when the once white cloth was now black!! I was too weary to argue with management about the roaches and the utterly filthy floors so I used the same cloth to mop the entire room. I stopped counting after 10 rinses. The single bath towel looked just as another review stated, "a mechanic's rag." 
The next day, I was awoken from my midday nap by Mesa Police pounding on my door demanding I exit the room with my hands up. They were calling me "Claudia."  I opened the door to tell them that isn't my name to which they demanded to know who else was in my room. The truth didn't appease them so I closed and dead bolted the door and called the front desk clerk. The front desk clerk made the police leave immediately and called me back to reassure me they were gone. I know Mesa police makes all motels submit the names and IDs of all guests to them in a nightly basis. The way MPD mishandled me I now understand why so many motels have kicked in doors!
It's a shame The Colonade is plagued with such a bad rap. With a little more renovations to eliminate the roach problem, maybe enforce a no loitering rule for its long term residents, and demand better behavior from the local police this could be a much better motel for travelers to use. As it stands now,  I wouldn't recommend staying unless nothing else is available. The management are wonderful, kind people. Maybe too kind!

Travelers Beware!

We were returning to Mesa for our flight home and literally could not find a room in Mesa, Gilbert or Chandler...then we found the Colonade Motel (que the scary music). My wife ran in to see if they had a vacancy and, not surprisingly, they did. We checked in and paid the almost $100 dollars. My first indication of this "motel hellishness" was the people congregating in little groups around back. We unloaded the luggage and brought it up to our room. I fit the actual key in the lock and it looked like the door had been booted in several times. Upon entry we found a dingy. ill lit "efficiency" room with a living room, kitchen, bedroom and bath. I locked the door and slid a chair under the door knob (which my wife giggled at and said she was thinking of doing the same thing). I tried turning on the air conditioner to get a little coolness in the stuffy room. It didn't seem to work well so I thought about turning on the ceiling fan above the bed. None of the light switches on the wall worked for this task so I stood on the bed and pulled the chain, a loud crackle and sparks surround the fan fixture, I panicked and pulled the chain again and it broke off.....thank god that the fan went off....so did I, fell off the bed. My wife was laughing so hard she couldn't talk. We decided we needed something to eat, so my wife looked for a spot to hide the luggage and we snuck back to the car to make sure no one saw us leave. We were back with some Craivins doughnuts quickly (those are great doughnuts by the way, I would recommend them). Once back in the room, door wedged with chair, curtains closed tightly, ceiling fan OFF, we decided to get in bed. I removed the bed spread, there appeared to be a large blood stain on it....or else they were painting something red...but I didn't notice any red highlights in the room. The sheets and pillow cases did smell clean though (thus the 1 star)! The towels in the bathrooms looked like someone used them to work on a car, the toilet bowl was so stained I thought we were in the county lock up (I'm sure our neighbors were frequent visitors), we for obvious reasons did not remove our footgear until we got in bed....oh yea...I forgot the part about checking on the car every 10 minutes...I asked my wife to do it once and she yelled "you only want me to do it so you don't have to touch the curtains!" I chuckled. After falling into a sweaty slumber (not wife induced) I was awoken by a knocking noise, not one of our formerly incarcerated neighbors, but from the drain in the bathroom sink. My wife, the intrepid explorer, got up in the dark and discovered if you closed the drain in the sink the noise went away...you go girl! We were up at 4:30 to catch our flight, the car was still there! No one had jimmied the door! We showered and dried with a beach towel we had with us and out we went. We noticed a younger male smoking under the stairway at 5 A.M on our way out, didn't make eye contact, shoved the key in the office slot and we were liberated!! 

Everything I just wrote is true with no embellishment. I read the other reviews and laughed, they were DEAD on. No remote for the TV either!  Can't say I would recommend this place...but it definitely made a memory and I will enjoy telling the tale for a looong time. Never did check to see if we got free wifi or breakfast....so maybe I'm being to harsh!

Flaming fan of fury...the nightmare continues

I was looking everywhere for a place to stay because my daughter was sleepy and we needed a place to stay i looked everywere before i got the room it looked pretty normal at the begining bt wen i went in the room i got so scared my daughter Found a needle with heroin something i had never seen in my life i felt so afraid this place is spray then stayin in your car DO NOT GO THERE!!!!
