Budget Inn Express

NO! Don’t do it. Trashy rooms, rundown location. Everything smelled like an ashtray. Many long term folks living there.

The only reason we stayed here was because every hotel in the area was booked up due to Hurricane Helene at the time. We had to stay somewhere for work that was nearby. The rooms felt dirty. We didn’t feel comfortable going to sleep till we washed the bed sheets. The area didn’t feel safe. We were here for a week and as the days went by we kind of adjusted to the place and were fine with it. We tried to pay for a month but they wouldn’t let us. We had to go pay every morning. We eventually left the place and found something better with more amenities

Please don't make the mistake we did. We looked at pictures on Expedia and we were exhausted so based out online reservations on those. The hotel is nothing like the pictures. We pulled up to a dump. People lingering everywhere at almost 1 am. Parking lot full of pit holes. We didn't even go in because the outside looked so bad. Definitely didn't feel safe or clean.

I paid for a room at the Budget Inn in Augusta, Georgia, which was falsely advertised ….but after about five minutes, I decided that my car was a safer option for the night! The place smelled like a crackhouse as soon as I walked in, and to top it off, random people were knocking on doors like it was some kind of community event. The “complementary breakfast” was nowhere to be found—unless you count the roaches, which seemed to be the only regular guests. The road leading to the motel was a dirt gravel path that made me wonder if I had stumbled onto the set of a low-budget horror film. And let's not forget the front desk lady, who was as sketchy as the entire place—like she moonlights as the star of every ghost story in town. Oh, and the mysterious people in the back? I didn't stick around long enough to find out what they were up to. I paid for the room, but the real cost was my peace of mind!

I'm sorry but I wouldn't get a room at this place for nothing. The linen on the bed had burned spots, ink spots on it and in the bathroom there were roaches crawling around the bath tube. Let's not forget the crack underneath the door and on the side of the door where the lock is. I don't know how this place even pass inspection.
