Unfortunately, will not stay here again when we visit family. Elevators were not working. We were traveling with family each booked their own room. My elderly grandparents were given a room on the second floor. They should have informed us of the issue beforehand. They were working on the lights so we were walking up and down dark stairwells. Not safe. Pool was out of service first day and second day had such a terrible odor. I’m assuming this is an old hotel. Loud noises in the pipes and Ac the entire stay. There was some sketchy activity going on in the parking lot both nights. We mentioned it to the staff out of concern for other guests and they basically said what do you want us to do.

The rooms intended to accommodate 4+ guest need to be updated as well as up to par. The room we recently checked into was in dire need of a professional cleaning service as well as entire room amenities. Shouldnt be consider a suite. It honestly took us longer to check in the room then it took me to request a room change. We had to downsize room in order to accommodate our own preference. The first floor rooms were recently renovated but need a deep clean prior to allowing guest to check in. I set my luggage on top of a cabinet inside the room and covered in dust. Overall it could have been better for the price we paid $454 close to $500 for 3 nights. I booked through expedia so i wasnt able to get the refunded the price difference when i had to switch to a standard room. Much smaller only intended to sleep 4 guest. I was traveling with a family of 6 so clearly did not comfortably suite our needs.

None of the USB outlets in the room work. We had a “suite” and there was just random empty space in the middle of the room. Put another TV in front of the couch or at least a painting on the wall? There’s a balcony but they lock it “for your safety” Most of the staff was nice except one of the kitchen workers took my daughters pancakes. She was standing there waiting for the machine to make them and right when the second one dropped onto the plate, the worker just walked up and grabbed it. Very rude. The pool is micro-sized almost pointless. Would stay here again unfortunately.

I prepaid via Expedia. I specifically chosevthis propert as it specifically said all taxes and fees are included. It also said "No deposit"- this was a last minute same day booking that we made because power was shut off due to the fires and risk in our area. When I arrive to check in, i was not greeted, I was told " ID and Credit card". Just like that. I asked why they need my card for a deposit, since I already paid, it was nonrefundable. And the booking site stated no fees. He said he wouldnt check me in without it. So I asked for the manager,, who they claimed was in a meeting, then on the phone. When she finally did come out, she pulled up the ICH website and showed me " you may be required to leave a deposit at certain properties. I told her I didnt book on thier site, i booked on Expedia which stated " no fees". Very rude. Very condescending. Next. They gave me a room at the very end of the hall, that seems to have been getting unfinished repairs done When I turned the bath water on, the tub seemed to be clogged. I found they had placed a glued seal on the drainhole that I had to pull off. I then noticed the drain pull and another drain part on the sink. The shower curtains were much to short, therefore soaking the floor everytime we showered. Housekeeping ignored the "Not ready" sigb placed on our door handle and started knocking on the door 40 minutes before checkout time, with no apology. Good: Breakfast Night desk staff

All front desk employees was nice and attentive.

The room was good but the gentlemen that check us in was rude. I rented the room thru Hotels .com and it was supposed to be 2 queen beds. But when I get there he gave me a king and said I book thru a 3rd party and Holiday Inn Express & Suites could do what they want. I could understand if it was booked up but it was not even full. I have never had anyone say that to me and I always book thru Hotels.com to me it looks bad for Holiday Inn Express. I will never book directly thru Holiday Inn Express ever.And that gentleman did not make his company look professional at all. He is bad for their business.

Great facility. My only negative is staff/policy. I was there for my daughter’s softball tournament. She played an early game the morning of checkout and we were back to the room by 9:45. She asked the front desk for a towel so she could shower before we departed (dad and I were fully packed up), and they told her no because we were checking out that day. Terrible service!

This hotel is perfectly acceptable, with well-kept public spaces and grounds, and the room was clean, with everything in working order. The staff is very friendly. Breakfast was good, with omelets, scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon, and all the other standard fare. There is a gas station/convenience store walking distance from the hotel, which is very close to Interstate 15. Only negatives I can think of are the somewhat limited parking, a problem only if the hotel is fully booked, and there are some homeless people in the area, something beyond the hotel's control.
