For a smaller, older Holiday Inn Express I thought it was very nice. It is right off the highway which was convenient. I used the guest washer dryer while i was there. Staff members were helpful and friendly.

We have stayed at this hotel before and had good experiences. Booked it for my family. Their car and five others were burglarized. The hotel has no cameras. Although the hotel was notified and police had been called by the time we found out about the car, my family was not notified or provided any information from the hotel. Communication on what occurred would have been nice.

For the price you get about what you expect. The pulldown shade in my room was beyond broken, and I wasn’t able to pull it down. Street lights very bright and without a shade was difficult to sleep. Also some mold in the bathtub. This hotel is on a major road and the Road noise is significant.

It was clean, staff was friendly, breakfast was fine and bed was comfortable. Shower curtain was too short, so water got on the floor. That was the only thing negative.

Above the tub the ceiling looked like it was going to fall down (see picture). The tub felt like the ground was soft underneath and the tub felt wobbly. This was a highly rated hotel so this was a shock. I was working nights and sleeping days and it was extremely noisy in this hotel. Total disappointment and extremely expensive since there was a concert in town - room rates shot up taking advantage of the public.

Property and room were clean. Had a better than average breakfast out which is included. Common areas a little dated but don’t really care about that much. Wish it wasn’t $700 for two nights on a football weekend.

We were dropping my son off at school and had planned an hotel to get him settled. My wife suddenly became very ill. We called the hotel prior to check in from the emergency room. She tested positive for COVID and they insisted that we check in anyway. We didn’t want to come into contact with other guests. They shrugged. They said Expedia won’t let them cancel. I called Expedia who were amazing and offered to call and talk to the hotel for us. The hotel was very rude to her. We decided to just go to my wife could sleep for a few hours before returning home. When we got there we found bed bugs in the room under one queen bed. A tiny roach under the sink. We grabbed our stuff and got out immediately sick and all. What a shame to be charged anyway. Terrible customer service. Two maids apologized for the rooms and said they keep spraying and it doesn’t work. ****parents beware, stay elsewhere when dropping your students off! Not worth the hassle.

We have stayed in a lot of hotels in Anderson before my son goes to Anderson University. Sadly this hotel was rundown. It was also not clean. We were very disappointed because we paid a lot for one night. I will never stay here again.

I didn't like being awaken at 8:30 a.m. by the cleaning staff for the rooms. Then by her trying to come into my room by allowing herself in without my permission. Good thing I had the safety lock on my door. She didn't hear me when I told her I was sleeping and that I was good. She still tried to come into our room. Whether I had the don't disturb sign or not she still didn't have permission to enter my room. This really upset me and I told them they had a jackedup policy for cleaning the rooms. I did speak with the manager and he said that it was the hotel policy. I will contact them and let them know this is totally out of line and a invasion of privacy. Otherwise my stay here was just okay. I wilk be contacting this management of this hotel for further discussion about my stay. There policy need to be changed. Another thing there was a dog that was barking every night of our stay which I thought was very disturbing so I didn't rest well.
