I requested a handicapped room and was given a regular room. My husband fell twice in shower because there was no hand rails or mat. Tub was very slippery. When I went to front to ask for more towels I was told that they did have access to the towels and house keeping was gone. There was mold all over the walls and ceiling. The toilet was unsafe. There was roaches crawling everywhere

room was clean but the picture on the wall was broken no bugs could be heard next door, there were no HDMI ports on the TV, and the walls only had one outlet making it hard for two people on C-PaPs

This was absolutely horrifying, first we had crack heads walking up to us talking about guns being pointed at them while in the parking lot, then our room was the worst experience I’ve ever had. The door did not close all the way, nor did the deadbolt lock the, the room was FULL of cockroaches embedded in the holes in the wall, the bed frame, crawling on the bed. We paid for a room we didn’t even sleep in. The moment I saw the cockroaches I quickly booked another hotel and we left without one word to the front desk guy as we were afraid the man clearly tweaked out would come back and the “lobby” was a glass window facing outside the window with a little speaker box. Never again honestly wish I knew how to get our money back for that terrible 5 minute experience

The room was decent. There weren’t any non-smoking rooms available so we just settled for a smoking room. It didn’t smell too much like a smoking room but you can tell they do minimal cleaning since there were cigarette butts by the ac. There were holes in the comforter on the bed, if you turn the heat on, it smells like burning hair, the toilet flushed very slowly and didn’t flush all the way, the outlets were also loose. Somebody random knocked on our door, 2 men, I believe both were high. Had no clue who these men were. They knocked a couple of times and we called the front desk. The response we got was “Sorry.” and then dial tone. We were planning on extending our stay for another night, but ended up leaving the next morning. Also, staff is decent in person but on the phone, they yell at you for not being able to hear or understand anything.

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.

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.
