The pool and hot tub was not working the entire week. The bath tub in my room had stains in the bottom. The table in my room was broken. The lady at the front desk was unfriendly two days in a row.

The hotel is in the process of some renovations. The hotel was clean but a bit outdated in areas. Breakfast was good. Nice selection of items to choose from. Pool was closed the first 2 days we stayed for cleaning which was disappointing. Elevator was a bit concerning. Only one and it shimmied as it was lowering and shuttering when rising. I heard someone at the front desk say the hotel was under new management. Centrally located to just about everything.

Our room was large, it was on the first floor and close enough to the side entrance which was very convenient for packing/unpacking. The property felt safe (traveled with toddler) and super close to The Legends outlet mall and the main highway. The front desk and cleaning/maintenance staff were super friendly. What we didnt like was the first night the pool and hot tub were under maintenance, then the second and third night the pool was open but the hot tub was still closed and the pool was COLD, so so cold - my energetic toddler still enjoyed it but was very uncomfortable for us adults. This next one is more of a personal preference but the pillows were way too soft. I also wish they had a Change Machine in the laundry room - the front desk staff didnt have quarters available.

This is a very clean and comfortable hotel. The rooms are clean and well equipped. They have both soft and firm pillows in the rooms to fit all preferences. The staff was very kind and the location is next to a Culver's and an IHOP. The only issue we had was that the key cards didn't work on the exterior doors. Because of limited parking in the front, it made for a long haul to the room. To be fair, it was obviously a fluke issue. They tried reprogramming our cards but it was apparently a problem with the door locks instead. Also, they offered us free snacks for the inconvenience. Overall, a good stay.

unfortunately, the elevators were not working, and I had to climb stairs, with luggage and bad knees. The construction going on and information that the elevator was not working should have been communicated to us prior to our stay, so we could make alternate arrangements or a discount applied to the cost of the room. We were not told until arrival and with 3 rooms, making alternate arrangements could not be done. We were basically STUCK with these rooms.

Our stay was ok. Room was clean, but the carpet throughout the hotel felt dirty, made my shoes squeek when coming onto tiled floor as if sticky. If walking barefoot, I wouldn't advise it..it felt greasy and nasty. I wore my husbands socks as I'd forgotten my slippers. The breakfast was good, attendant was very attentive to everyones needs. Pool looked very clean and nice area. Front desk staff were nice and took care in timely manner. We generally stay at HIE, but this one I'm pretty sure we would find another one to try out.

Not a nice hotel - definitely run down and not taken very good care of. We stayed as a group and all of our rooms had sticky and gross carpets. Your shoes would stick to the hard floor after walking on them and make noise. Dining furniture was all worn down. Bathroom not very clean comparatively to over stays - harder to clean areas not cleaned at all such as corners and under shelves in bathrooms. Rooms are a lot smaller than most hotels we have stayed at, which is several a year most of which booked on hotels.com. Narrow entrance with another door way to the bedroom from the bath/hall area. Our individual experience, but took 10 minutes for us to just check-in with one person in front of us because the staff was super slow.

People at service desk are kind . No complaints there. But my room upon walking in immediatly smelled like feet , like a dirty sock cornchip smell. We had hoped it would wear off after awhile but it sure didnt. The carpet felt off like sticky almost . We wernt sure if it was just the old outdated carpet or something had spilled all over . The rest of the room was cleaned pretty good. But the smell was absolutely awful. Would not stay here again .

We had to change rooms. The carpet in the first room, 210, was moist and smelled terribly musty in the entire room. We changed to 134. Same issue. Our feet stuck to the carpet then on the tile. My sister had a/c issues in their room and changed rooms. They too had musty, moist carpet. Felt truly disgusting.

Pros: Staff was very friendly and was located in a perfect area - especially if you are going to a KC Sporting event! Breakfast was great as well! Cons: Our room had dirty, sticky carpet. We kept our socks on the entire time and it still felt yucky. There was also hair in one of the beds and the bathtub. You are definitely paying more for the location!

The sink and the tub were clogged. We had to ask for trash to be removed and removed it ourselves one day. Had to ask for towels. Not once were our beds even made, no sheets changed. The renovations are causing a mess, we believe our room had just been done and there was glue on our floor, so it was sticky. There was GUM ON OUR REMOTE CONTROL. So gross, not sure if anyone cleaned the room before we got there.

Problem is the room they moved me to had the same issue just not as bad. For $150 a night I would like to not be uncomfortable walking around the room with no shoes on.

Bathroom floor tiles are all lose and coming up, holes in walls that were the size of 50 cent pieces, drawer on dresser wouldn't stay close which was a struggle when it was dark in the room trying to move around. Bed frame made a ton of noise when you would move a little. Tons of glue on shower wall where something once was attached.

First off they switched our room (which was paid for) from two beds to one because “they were oversold.” The employee said she was sorry, but did nothing to make up for it. The room was subpar. There was a hole by an outlet. Huge clump of hair in the drain. It was a handicap room with a role in shower (which we didn’t need) - the drip edge at the entry to the shower was gone and water just spilled out onto the floor. The shad on the window was broken and would not open. They had a guest laundry - but with only one set of machines. The machines required quarters, but there was no change machine and the front desk had no change. All in all, I think you could find a better place to stay.

We came in to check in at 4:10. We didn’t receive our keys then due to our room not being ready. We waited and waited and waited. Finally after about a hour we talked to the man at the front desk about our room still wasn’t ready. Then about 30 minutes later asked again. Still wasn’t ready but we were told there was a room with to queens available but said no because there was a family that obviously needed that room. Waited again after 30 minutes our room was finally ready. Overall waited 2 hours while kids were running around being loud but that’s just part of it and I understand it’s not the man at the front desks fault but seriously 2 hours!!?!?! People that got there wayyy after got their rooms wayyy before us. There was just zero communication between people. And to add to that got to the room tv didn’t work had to go down twice to finally get help. Thank you to the very kind manager at the time for coming up immediately to help us.

Called me 23 minutes before check in to tell me they gave my rooms away. We booked them a month early and they jacked the price up and gave out rooms to someone who booked long after I did. They ruined my kids event that we planned out so meticulously so that nothing bad would happen. We ended up missing most of our event because the nearest accommodation we could find with only 20 minutes notice was over 40 minutes away. Thanks for ruining our trip for your greed.

Our experience at Holiday Inn Express was terrifying and traumatic. At approximately 11:30 pm, our room was broken into. A desk clerk mistakenly gave an access card to the previous night guest. The door was secured on the inside with the security latch. The inebriated man the broke that latch and came into the room. The phone was disconnected. I called front desk and was told the clerk made a mistake. I’m hearing impaired with severe heart problems. Traumatic to say the least.

The hotel was ok. It was really not as nice looking as the internet pictures showed. It is a bit more run down. Our bathroom had paper/insulation falling from it the entire time we were there. Not a big deal, but kind of annoying honestly. One morning of our stay the water was turned off for hours and they did not give us any notice. On another day, when there was some extreme weather, the staff didn’t seem to know anything about the weather and when asked about a plan for potential warnings they didn’t know of any. Another guest and I made a plan of our own. Then on our last morning the fire alarm went off in the early morning. Some of us stuck our head out of our rooms. There seemed to be no sense of urgency. After quite a few minutes the alarm stopped. I thought maybe the staff would communicate with us we were ok or something, but I never heard anything. I feel like the lack of knowledge and communication from the staff on some pretty urgent situations was not quite professional. I know I won’t be staying at this particular hotel again.

Everything was very clean and beds were very comfortable. Breakfast was…mostly missing. Continental breakfast items were available, but bacon and eggs were gone at 7:00, and 45 minutes later still not refilled. Clearly another worker or two would help keep food stocked and trash emptied.
