It was actually a large clean room with a good TV. Just some characters in the surrounding areas but I didn't feel unsafe. It was great for what I needed
The Room was very clean and everything worked. Check in was quick however the towel rack was falling off the wall. Nice room.

This property looked very shady. It had bars on all the windows and you could not go into the lobby. The lobby was locked up tight and they helped you through a tiny little slit in a window. They charge a $10 deposit for the room key and the tv remote (which the tv did not work anyways). However, all the staff at the location were fabulous and very friendly.
I had two rooms for two nights. I'm going into detail so the next guest knows what they're in for.
If you need a place to just sleep, this hotel works super well! Checking in involves standing outside of the main office in the images provided. The windows are barred and there is a small "drive thru" window. That window has a slit and small table for you to pass items through with the front desk worker. The man who checked us in was very chipper and kind. You pay a $10 deposit per room to get your single blank keycard and the room's remote. The woman who checked us out was efficient and similarly nice. My deposit was refunded to my account quickly.
Both rooms were incredibly humid and smelled HEAVILY of cigarettes. The furniture in both rooms consisted mainly of a bed, a hanging wall mirror, a small table, and one chair. One room had a long and sturdy TV console, the other a small end table.
The bathrooms are tiny (standard for cheaper stays ngl), the showers are incredibly awkward to operate (three knobs, 2 labeled hot), the towels provided are threadbare and occasionally stained, and you get one washcloth. You also get 2 bars of soap.
One of the rooms had normal sized pillows that were flat as a blanket, the other had small square pillows that were fluffy. You only have the two regardless. The bedding in one room had small, light stains and the other had a "crusty" feel towards the very foot of the bed.
Overall an experience I won't repeat alone but with friends/family yes
Rooms overall were quite decent for the price. Some of the other guests were quite interesting individuals. Checking in and out was very easy and very fast. Housekeeping came through daily to makeup the heds and restock towels. Overall a decent place if you are looking for a place to sleep at night and plan to spend most of the day out and about.
My experience it’s always wonderful here at the Budget Inn, the staff is great. The receptionist are always friendly and helpful , they go above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and make my stay easy they have great management here!

This motel is very much “you get what you pay for.” The room was clean, the refrigerator and microwave worked, the lights worked, and the A/C worked. No amenities or dining options. Convenient location to I35.
I think the benefit was that its location has direct access to the freeway. Yet, it’s quite noisy, mattress was caved in, and the room had a particular smell (not good). Stained sheets and flooring. On the bright side, the heater was working and we did have hot water. We just stayed one night. Check-in took a while even though we had paid in advance through Expedia. Check-out was fast.
