Howard Johnson Express Inn – Denton

My 85 year old mother and I spent 4 nights. When we first arrived after the 2 men at the front spending at least 20 minutes trying to find us a room away from smoking rooms with 2 beds, they put us upstairs in a tiny, smelly, dingy dark room that DID NOT HAVE A SINGLE AVAILABLE OUTLET. So… I went down and told them it was not acceptable and they then he showed me a nice, large, cleaner room with 2 queen beds in the building in the rear. I took it and then was told it was an additional 16 dollars a night. Are you kidding me??? Breakfast is a joke, water colored coffee, cereal a waffle iron and a few small pastries from Walmart. All in all they have lost what could have been very regular customers as my new grandbaby lives in Denton.

This place is horrible. Will not ever stay here again. The room was half ass clean, it smelled like old clothes that have set for years untouched, the shampoo was not replaced, no conditioner, pillows looked nasty and old. This place needs so much remodeling, they might as well take it down and start new.

This was an absolutely horrible experience the facility is in shambles the carpets are dirty the beds have stains on them even the lampshades were filthy and to top it all off this motel is still more expensive than others nearby which are alot nicer and cleaner if you ever need to visit Denton off I 35 I suggest going to Days Inn instead.

Very average hotel. I will be here for a week after next Tuesday. I will say the place is old, very avg for the weekly rate that they are charging me. I stayed in the front building, but supposedly the back building is 5 years newer. The TV that I had was very old and the speakers were blown, so I did get that switched out with no problems. Mattresses have not been flipped in a while, and the bathrooms need to be updated. The pool is extremely small.

My tv didn’t work and they refused to get me a new one.
The young middle eastern guy at the desk spoke perfect English.
Until I had a problem. Then he couldn’t understand a word I said.
Funny how that happens.
Then on the phone it was $ 43 but when I got there it was $ 52 then it was $ 59. I don’t suggest staying here.
