Disappointed
This was possibly the worst hotel I ever stayed at in my life. The whole place ought to be torn down and replaced as bad as it was. The accommodation was poor, the furniture was falling apart. It was in a bad part of town and there were people loitering in the parking lot. I stayed there mainly because I didn’t want to sleep in my car and it was cheap. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Worst stay ever
Nobody was in the office when I arrived and I waited around for about 10 minutes until someone showed up. They had the lobby closed due to Covid and had to be outside and talk through a window. The traffic noise was so loud I couldn’t hardly hear anything that the guys was saying. The room was in terrible condition. The toilet was so loose in the floor I thought it was going to fall over. The shower head was broken. The furniture looked like the went dumpster diving for it. There were many shady looking characters running around the place and there were a few police outside the office when I checked out. I was only there for about 5 hours and couldn’t stand it any longer.

WARNING: Typically, when the price of a hotel is indeed low, one should have low expectations with it. However, the phrase "you get what you pay for", in my opinion, does not cover what might constitute false advertising. If this place was honest about what it was - a sketchy run-down dump with decaying paint and smelly rooms - I could at least give it credit for honesty, and I would not have a legitimate reason to complain had I made a reservation here. Of course, had the Expedia photos not misled me, I would have never booked a room here. If I were homeless, and had no other alternatives for formal shelter besides this Express Inn, I would strongly consider purchasing a tent. Checking into this hotel and viewing the room served as reminders of all of the blessings I have in this life.
