We stayed here for a week. The staff and ownership bent over backward to insure our satisfaction. Although the hotel & rooms are a little dated they really do a great job cleaning and caring for the rooms and property. This hotel is by far the best value in Rahway/Linden area. There are so many options along US 1 that i have stayed at but Express Inn definitely worth a stay.

This place is a nightmare out of New Jersey. The rooms were extremely dirty and unpleasant. I had a terrible headache the moment I stepped in that place. I left after 2 mins of seeing that run down place. Beware do not book this place

Express inn

It’s a nice hotel/motel. Management is nice. AC/Heater is spectacular. king size bed is very comfortable. place is pretty clean. My one big complaint is that the descriptions of the room stated it had a deep soaking bathtub. That was the deciding factor in me picking this hotel over another nearby. I bought a big bottle of Bubble Bath before I got there. Only to find NO BATHTUB. Just a walk-in shower. I was very disappointed in that. Overall I give the place a 3 1/2 outta 5

It’s right off route 1&9, convenient, a little traffic noisy. The room was clean, door locks, plentiful, A/C worked great. I was able to feel secure and I slept well. It had a working fridge and microwave.
