Basic, but cleaner than other cheap places

It was basic, but clean. The owners are old and can come across rude but it's fine, at least it's clean. I was uneasy at first because I had not heard the best things about this location and its safety, but they're doing a good job on the renovations, and it's very affordable.

4/10 Fair

Staff was friendly, price was great, exterior lighting was greatly appreciated, and the bathroom was in good condition overall. Bed sheets, comforter, and bath vanity had stains and cigarette burn marks on them. The main room could use a fresh coat of paint (to make the overall feel cleaner) and fresh sheets, bedding, and towels would elevate the entire experience.

6/10 Good

Express what?

Good stay, new owners have done well with remodeling it and making it look nice. Slept good. Place was quieter than expected which is always a plus. The $65 a night is way too high of a cost for a room with no amenities at all.. Just basic everything. Except no ice machine!!! And a microwave outside for community use. where they do that at?? EXPRESS INN. Surprisingly no bugs! So thanks for that

You get what you pay for.

You get what you pay for! Neighborhood seemed nice but the hotel area was sketchy. People loitering around outside lobby and once we went to bed (around 11 pm) men were yelling and it just seemed scary. Sheets were clean, water was hot, beds were comfortable, it was just the atmosphere that was not good.

2/10 Poor

It had the amenities of a prison cell. No chair, the only light came from two overly bright ceiling fixtures. No ice machine available. Not a single place to hang clothes. (no "door-hooks", coat hanger bar etc.) "Non-smoking" room stunk of cig. smoke. I would leave the door open as long as I could upon arriving each day in an attempt to "air-it-out". No carpet and floor was sticky. Do NOT walk around bare-footed ! On the "good" side, the bed was comfortable, the bathroom had new fixtures, and the "help" was pleasant, although English is obviously NOT their primary language. Needless to say this is on my "NEVER-Stay-there-Again" list even if the price was free!

Staff at front desk are very disrespectful they over charge for low quality rooms non smoking rooms and smoking barely have a quality difference. It’s coo to go if you are tired and need to rest but other than that it’s REALLY TERRIBLE. I paid for two nights staff woke me up banging on my door with a hidden fee from nowhere I booked through hotels.com

Pros: clean, no bugs, hot water, good wifi, fridge in room Cons: rooms need lots work. Poor lighting despite pics since no lamps on nightstands, near highway so VERY noisy, low water pressure, people outside at 2am being very noisy so did not sleep well. Pictures were not an accurate depoction. I would not recommend.

When I went to check in, the manager demanded I give him a $30 deposit, either cash or deposit. I had already paid for the room via Hotels.com, but this was additional. I gave him my card, and they charged me $30. The claim is that I will receive a credit back "in a few days". There was nothing in this dilapidated room to steal, so I do not understand the need for a deposit. There was not even a bedside lamp in the room.

You get what you pay for, I guess. I really don't understand how they charge me a deposit to make sure I do not smoke in the room and yet ALL the linens had cigarette burns in them!

Totally are not informed until you get there that they are going to charge you a extra $15 if you are in a smoking room and then a $20 deposit for the non-smoking room that is up to their discretion on whether or not you smoked in the room (even if you didn't) if they think u did that $20 is gone. Very poor maintained property and 90% of the other guests live there and are disrespectful and think because they live there that they own it or something. Idiots!!!! Period.
