Good

They advertised a swimming pool which was shown on the map inside the room door as well. They advertised breakfast, and coffee. The only coffee available was a horrible machine in the lobby, which was horrible. They asked for a 25 dollar fee even though the room was paid in advance which was supposed to be returned on leaving. I will be checking my account for this. Very uncomfortable beds, barely any pillows and few towels.
There is no human staff at the front desk. Everything is done through a kiosk… very unfriendly. The carpet in my room was dirty ( I never walked on it with my bear feet). It was stained, holes, rips and so did the chair in the room ( thank goodness I could put the chair in the closet)
The room and hotel were clean and comfortable. There was NO human at the font desk, a computer opened up and did the transaction. We were not told the room was in a back building attached to the hotel, had to go in and ask the computer. Finally got to the room, sat down im the chair and almost landed on my back as the chair just kept leanimg further and further back! Not impressed and wont go back and wouldn't recommend it to anyone I know.
The room price was good and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The only thing that caught me off guard is that there is not a physical person behind the counter, you check in and put through a kiosk that connects you to an agent.
Free coffee machine in lobby was not good, darkest coffee barely tinted the water. It is like a Zoom check-in, talking to desk clerk on-screen and using scanner to send him my ID and CC. It was fine, but strange to me.
I will never book at this property again. I bokked thru Expedia "pay at property " i get a phone call at 4pm demanding i give them credit card information to run my card right then. I use a prepaid card for booking, for these purposes, so if someone hacks my card, I can just cancel it. I was booking overnight for a business function and wasn't checking in unti 6pm or so. I told this guy that and he told me that i have until 5pm to give him a card he can charge right then or loose the reservation. Well.... needless to say, We choose to not keep the reservation due to the lack of professional of this hotel and could tell our stay wouldn't be enjoyable.
Nothing special. Had to check in with a kiosk no person to person. I'm not a robot, shouldn't have to check in with one. Price on Expedia was misleading.
They have a virtual checkin machine that took a long time. The person on the other end was nice, but the machine was inefficient. I saw zero other staff while there (one night) and the door leading outside -which was right next to my room - was never locked. I felt a bit unsafe. They also charged $25 extra for each pet. So ultimately, my choice to pick an inexpensive pet-friendly hotel was totally inaccurate. I would not stay here again and it’s not likely I’ll stay in any other express inn since they have moved to hire less in hotel staff.

Was a decent place to stay while working out of town. If spending time there with a family I would recommending spending more and going to a nicer cleaner place.
