Run far away.

Never again. It was gross. You could smell the mold. The parking lot was sketchy. Glad we were only there to sleep before an early flight.

2/10 Poor

Long hike to any ground floor room facing away from the street. Imagine my frustration after finally getting into the room to find the fire alarm beeping every 90 seconds (low batter) Another hike to frtont desk, back to room to collect my things, another hike to another room....with no water to the sink. BTW, thee is no breakfast bar and no coffee in the lobby. And this place$10/night more expensive than a Motel 6 up the street!

Horrible- Black mold!

The hotel was NOTHING like what was advertised. Rooms were filthy with black mold and there was domestic violence the staff didn’t do anything about. The photos haven’t been updated in decades it looks like. Do NOT stay here it is unsanitary and unsafe. I also have contacted Hotels.com about a refund and was told I’d get a call back and never have.

Bates Motel

Seriously ,Do Not stay here. I had no choice because it seemed like the entire city of Richmond was booked. I figured it was one night and my flight was super early. Black mold is still there. Cigarette burns in the comforter is still there. The drywall in the bathroom was rotted af the bottom, clear signs of a leak. Refrigerator was not clean, microwave was not clean. I took apart the bed to check for bedbugs. None was found. Thats probably the only thing i can say was good. But seriously, do not stay here.

DISGUSTING AND NOT WHAT WE SIGNED UP FOR

The room was absolutely disgusting with stains and rust everywhere. I did not feel safe drinking the water from the, tap let alone taking a shower. There were also flies in our room and I found a baby roach when we checked in. I did not feel comfortable sleeping under the disgusting, cigarette burnt covers either. The entire building looked like it was falling apart and had not been cared for in years. We stayed one night and checked out the next morning. This is NOT what the pictures or information on their website describe. Felt like the motel straight out of breaking bad. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Did not feel safe, there was about a 1 1/2-2 inch roach in the bathroom that I had to ask him if I could use the toilet!

Needs a lot of repair, mattress good

The hotel looked so beaten down we thought the hotel was closed and abandoned. It appears they suffered from the rain storm since ceiling tiles were on the lobby floor. Two lamps in the room did not function and the floor was sticky; plus the furniture was broken down. Actually, the mattress was fine and the sheets clean. It seemed a place where people a bit more on the down and out had to stay. We would have left except there was a big concert and all the other hotels were filled and it was late. We didn't even shower in the AM--just left quickly.
Richard, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

It is an older property with kind of a musty smell.
Robert, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This motel is absolutely disgusting. If it werent for checking jn late for an early flight and being across from the airport, i would have walked out. I know, you get what you pay for, all i wanted was a clean bed and hot shower, but this place had neither. The bedding had burn holes, paint peeling off the wall, mildly warm water. Take my advice, spend a little extra $$ for cleanliness.

2/10 Poor

Shockingly bad. I’m not that fussy on a quick overnight stay I’m happy for a dated room but clean sheets. This place literally needs a bulldozer and start again. If I wasn’t so tired and it wasn’t 1am bc of flight delays I would have been out of there

2/10 Poor

It was filthy. There was a big whole in the wall of the shower. The coffee pot and coffee cups were dirty. The whole place was in disrepair.
Renee, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

The dirtiest place i have ever laid my head. Sheets wete dirty, pillows stained, pillow cases stained, cigarette burns in comforter and sheets, floor dirty, shower curtain full of mold, dirty soap in shower with hair on it, walls, ceiling stained with looks like blood, but I certainly hope not. Shady people sitting outside all hours of the day. Absolutely disgusting and needless to stay i did not sleep real well. Asked Expedia to refund my purchase after checking in and they conveniently responded the evening I was supposed to check out. Highly recommend finding somewhere else to lay your head at night.

Express Airport Inn - Problems

The Express Airport in was to be an overnight stay after arriving flying into Richmond and arriving at 11 pm. In our room we found the coffee maker with old coffee grounds and the coffee pot 1/2 full, many cigarette burn holes in the top bedspread, the smell of smoke for what was supposed to be a non-smoking room, the towel rack barely attached to the wall ready to fall to the floor and a musty, moldy smell. The hotel clerk was unwilling to refund our payment so we spent the next 2 hours driving home in the middle of the night. Do not stay at this motel unless you like unpleasant surprises.
Coffee pot - old coffee grounds still in top and coffee pot 1/2 full of old coffee when we checked into the room
Cigarette burn holds in back of bedspread.  Room was non-smoking but smelled very smokey.
Another cigarette burn hole in back of bedspread.  Noticed at least 10 on the bed cover.
Bathtub stained and towel rack was ready to fall out of wall brackets.
