Staff was great. Only had 1 wash cloth in our king bed room and the soap dispenser was mounted to the wall to where you had to dispense the soap and go over the counter about 2 feet to get to the sink. So would have to go over shave kit or makeup kit that was sitting there. Hot tub was under repair or cleaning.

I was extremely disappointed not only in that one of the main amenities (the hot tub) was permanently closed but I found a very alive brown reclus spider in the bathroom and another dead bug on the floor by the refrigerator. When management was told I received 2000 IHG points and an apology. I did not expect to pay top dollar for a cheaper hotels bug worry and lack of sleep. May not bother others but personally have a sever allergic reaction to spiders in particular. Hope any other stays have proven to be as “comfortable” as I am paying for.

Our stay at this O'Neill Holiday Inn Express was great! The staff was very helpful!! We were able to check-in early because a 3:00 wedding. We were then able to freshen up after traveling to O'Neill from out of town. The sleep was amazing and breakfast was delicious. Check out was also seamless. Holiday Inn Express helped us have a great time with family!

Holiday inn express is wayyy overpriced! They cancelled my reservation without calling me. They said they called, but I have zero record of that. Took way too long to check in and the room was mediocre at best.
