Exactly what you’d expect.

Look man the room was $55 plus fees so I had zero expectations of even a friendly experience but this place was a pleasant surprise... yes they need new carpets but the place was super clean, comfy bed and excellent customer service. I'd stay again.

It looks a little rough from the outside, but the rooms are surprisingly undated, comfortable and very clean. The staff is helpful and very pleasant. It’s located close to everything you need and is truly a great value for the price.

The pool's not working. There is no breakfast even though on the app it says there is breakfast provided there's tea and coffee 24 hours. There was no shower curtain in our room. The heat lamp bulb was missing even though it turned on. The door in the bathroom was completely tore up like a dog had been in there. To me it was still worth it because the price of the hotel for $62 I thought was good

Old building. Needs renovation but the rooms were good and beds were comfortable.

The guy at the front desk was kind, and that is where the good part of the experience ended. The magnetic room key got randomly demagnetized several times throughout my stay, which cause me to have to go get a new one every time. Hole in the shower wall, all plumbing fixtures in the room need maintenance/replacement, no smoke detector in room (there is a spot for it but it was not there), ac worked very poorly (it likely hasn’t been service since smoking was allowed at McDonald’s), stains on sheets, no comforter on bed, several strange TV channels that say “camera insertion 1” or “camera insertion 2”… pool is not functional, ice machines were not functional, thrash left out all night in the hallway, not in a can or anything, just bagged trash and pizza boxes, missing buttons on the AC unit. Hard to change temp in shower, thin walls ( you can hear the other occupants way too much), swimming pool clearly has not been accessible in months… but the place is the cheapest in town, and I’m on a very limited budget. The place needs needs serious updates, but because of the lack of smoke detectors in each room, it is clearly not even up to code right now.

Very old hotel bordering on motel. No amenities really to speak of. The window was unlocked when we arrived, we had to work to get it locked. Both the shower drain and sink drains were very slow to drain (like 5 minutes). 2 towels only. Not filthy, but certainly not clean either. Parking lot was completely full, had to park on street one night and in an area labeled for an adjoining restaurant the next. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

The room had stains all over the floors and furniture. The bed was clean but everything else was horrible! The king size bed came with 3 crappy pillows (for 2 people) and the front desk didn’t have any extras to spare. We found garbage behind the nightstand. Electrical outlets were broken or missing. Walls looked dirty. Microwave was missing the glass tray. The wallpaper was peeling. The shower curtain had a hole in it. The bathtub had splotchy paint stains all over like it was covering up damage. I’ve never stayed in such a disgusting room. If it wasn’t so late at night and there were other hotel options (everything was sold out for an event) we would not have stayed. Strongly do not recommend.

I had booked a room at Fair Bridge Inn Express online which apparently was Days Inn according to there billboard signage.....a little confusing when trying to find the hotel. We arrived kinda late, the gentleman behind the counter was great. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We were extremely tired so unpack and sleep was on the agenda. I pulled back the covers off of my bed and there was several hairs on the bottom sheet. I stripped the bed, put the dirty sheets on the floor in a corner and folded the blanket under and over myself....Gross.... I was woken up in the morning by the sounds of 2 or 3 dogs barking consistently all the way down the hall.. we had no shower curtain at all, no trash can in room, no decaf tea or coffee in the morning,the bathroom was very dirty and the door and wall of bathroom looked like it was on the last string on its life. No staff was to be found anywhere upon several attempts to see a human behind the front desk counter. Bad experience.....

Nothing like the pictures. Probably the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Stains on all the bedding. Holes the walls and a really bad smell. Would give negative stars if I could.

This property is severely run down and old. We found a clump of hair in the bathtub, stains on the sheet that you sleep on, the desk chair had hair and other nasty things on it, TV remote was sticky, the room was very smelly like old or molt. Very low shower head good a 5 foot man, toilet had a crack on the seat. Bath towel had 3 small black moving things on it. They told me they're obligated to hold a $50 deposit in case of damage but because this property is so badly maintained I made the front desk person before check out to view the room and to show him i left it better condition then arriving, he said "yes no problems looks good".I hope I have no issues with getting my $50 deposit back as he assured me. I hope he stands on his word so I don't have to take it to the next level

Do not stay at this property. The pictures in the advertising do not properly represent in any form of passion state of this property.

Listing says property offers laundry and ice which was not true.

This is the dirtiest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Floor to ceiling was disgusting. Carpet smelled and was extremely soiled. Pool was non-functional. There was no continental breakfast. Every corner of the whole building was dirty. Walls and doors were stained and had debris on them. It feels like an abandoned building and/or a “rent by the hour” motel. You’ve been warned.

Bring your own bathroom doorknob and smoke detector as this room didn’t have either! Mold on the bathroom ceiling was a nice touch as well! The door said executive suite which made feel sorry for the poor folks across the hall without that description on their door! Save the 150 bucks and sleep in your car!
