Since we stayed there last year the condition on the property has become run down and not very clean. There were no lamps in the room except for one desk lamp…room was dark and not welcoming at all, the elevator had no indication lights working and was very dirty. Our room had M&M on the floor right by the bed so they obviously did not vacuum the room, who know what else they did not do. Several other hotels very close by, we will be staying else where from now on…won’t return to this Holiday Inn Express

It was convenient. It was familiar as we stayed here for travel ball 2018-2022. Love the comfortable mattresses and pillows. My problem was our water was ice cold after running 5 minutes in tub, requested room change. Another room 3rd floor water ice cold. Finally changed us to third room on 4th floor and water was hot.

Living room was spacious & comfortable. The king size bed was firm and comfortably supportive. Bathroom door a little too close to master bed headboard. There was construction occuring (pounding & sanding) in the room directly above ours (from about 9am to 4pm). Excellent staff, breakfast and parking.

Bathroom was a little grody. The room was nice but it just didn’t feel clean due to the state of the bathroom. Beds were super comfy though and it was a nice stay just would have been nicer if the bathroom would have been better taken care of.

Stopped in looking for a place to sleep after a long day of driving. Our room had several stains on the floor and on the bedding. Many rooms were sold out for a basketball tournament which didn’t leave many options. Didn’t want to take my shoes off and slept on top of the covers. Was hands down the dirtiest holiday inn I’ve been too.

Way overpriced for what it was. $300 a night for a Holiday Inn is just absurd. Beds were comfy, but the bathroom was tiny. The room was large, with two seperate areas. A large sitting room which is mainly a waste of space. And a large room with the beds. Two large rooms and the bathroom was maybe 4ft x 4ft. And that’s being generous. Really stupid design. Breakfast was edible at best. Cheap tasting sausage and rather gross scrambled eggs. Bread was stale, waffle machine was broken, and of course they offer only the nastiest cheapest cereals, Raisin Bran, Wheaties, Plain Cheerios. Nothing more aggravating than paying $300 for a one night stay that includes “breakfast” only to have the whole family whining about being hungry at 10am because the breakfast was gross. Could at least put some name brand cereal out for that price. Room was basic not dirty, but not special, the tv only had basic channels no HBO or Netflix or any streaming channels. Vastly overpriced for what it was. I would not stay again unless the price was cut by more than half and offered a better breakfast.

The staff here is very lax. They didn’t clean our room and we were out of the room my 9am. Had to go to the desk for towels and in-room coffee supplies. Needed in-room coffee supplies because the breakfast area was CONSTANTLY out of coffee and creamer. There were 2 people working the breakfast but still couldn’t keep the coffee full. And, it didn’t seem like they were slammed busy. Lastly, they didn’t have a rollaway when we checked in or so they said. Front desk was cordial and the place looked pretty nice but service is La king.

I arrived to check-in, only to be told that the check-in system was down and that my only options were to leave and drive around indefinitely unless or until they called to let me know that the system was working again, or to sit in the lobby indefinitely. After over an hour of waiting, I had to leave to find another hotel, even though I had already paid for this one.
