Had a terrible time checking in. Took forever. Ask for a first floor room and didn’t get it. The remote for the TV did not work. Did not feel messing with desk to correct these two things.

Jessica, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

I just dont know

The staff was AMAZING. Everything made me regret being here. My room stunk of weed because of one of the other rooms, i can hear every word of the conversation the next room was having, the couple fighting and screming, etc. The bed makes you appreciate the crappy one at home. You get what you pay for.
Samantha, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I love staying here. You can’t beat the price.
Tara, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Room 231 was disgusting. The bedframe had mold and brown crust on it, the lamps flickered, the sofa fabric was worn through, and the floor had greasy spots on it from where cleaner or pest spray had been used and not wiped up. I had to spend the night somewhere else.
Jill, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I feel a moral obligation to write this review to warn others. My stay at the Stay Express in Athens, Texas, was the most horrifying and unsafe hotel experience of my life. This place is not just bad; it is condemned, deceptive, and dangerous. SAFETY & HARASSMENT: The most critical issue is your personal safety. This hotel houses individuals we were told are "mental patients," who live on the property. During our stay, we were actively harassed and threatened with violence by some of these residents. The situation was so severe that we had to call the Athens Police Department. When we reported this to the hotel management, their response was to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. They showed zero concern for our well-being. FILTH & UNSANITARY CONDITIONS: The advertised "clean and decent" rooms are a complete lie. · The sheets were dirty and stained. · We found COCKROACHES in the room. · Most shockingly, there was FECES SMEARED AGAINST THE WALL. · The bathroom was a health hazard. The tub was painted with cheap house paint, which was peeling and collecting grime. · The towels provided had BLOOD STAINS on them. This place is not just unclean; it is a biohazard. FRAUDULENT & HOSTILE MANAGEMENT: When we could no longer tolerate the danger and filth, we demanded a refund to leave immediately. The management was incredibly rude, unaccommodating, and hostile. When I tried to reason with them, one of them told me they "look forward to my lawsuit." This is not a joke. Why would Expedia host !!

The only dog friendly hotel in town.

The world‘s slowest check in process this hotel is dated. The pool was green.
