What guests think

At Holiday Inn Express & Suites Clear Spring by IHG, travelers consistently highlight friendly, accommodating staff, comfortable beds, and a better-than-average free breakfast, while noting a convenient, generally quiet location near I-70, Whitetail Resort, and the C&O Canal.

Cleanliness feedback is mixed: many rooms are tidy, but recurring reports mention musty odors, unclean bathrooms, stained linens, ants, and worn or dirty carpets. The indoor pool and hot tub are appreciated when available, though guests frequently find the pool cold and the hot tub or jets not working or needing better upkeep; the fitness room is small, and parking is easy. Rooms are spacious but somewhat dated for some, with occasional lukewarm showers, noisy appliances, and spotty Wi-Fi on upper floors. Overall, expect a value-focused stay in a convenient location, with variable upkeep.

Pros: Staff has excellent customer service, was allowed to check in early. Room was clean, area is relatively quiet. cons: There is an alarm that goes off from somewhere nearby that can be annoying. Bathroom had a funny scent that flooded into the rest of the room. The fitness center is tiny, you can realistically fit 2-3 people without bumping into each other. The pool is nice and spacious but had a lot of hair in it.

Stayed here last year also, this hotel is great for day trips on the C&O canal. The breakfast is a welcome feature. Only disappointment this trip; the hot tub was not hot, it wasn’t much warmer than the pool. This is normally an enjoyable feature after a long day, so I was pretty bummed. Other than that, the hotel met expectations.

Great hotel at a great price only about 10 minutes of the main highway. If you get there before 9pm there is a cute little Pizza place across the road that had great food and great service. Was able to park my pick up and 14ft Cargo trailer no problem. Staff was super friendly and room was clean and renovated with Holiday inn’s new layout that has the cool lighting coming from the top of the bed and furniture. Overall had a great stay and highly recommend!

We had a nice stay at the Holiday Inn Express. We stayed here for its proximity to the Whitetail ski area, for we enjoy shredding the gnar. The wifi worked wonderfully for remote work. We were surprised to learn there is a a hot tub in the pool area as it was not listed or shown in any of the photos. There is an exercise room which is open 24/7 to allowed pumping of iron at any time. The included breakfast was tasty and filled our bellies with the nourishment we needed to dominate all the slopes at the ski area. There was also cheap fuel right by the entrance.

There were ants in the bed. Dozens. That we didn’t notice til morning. When I flagged a housekeeper she wasn’t surprised. Just said “Yeah, they have a problem with ants here for some reason” and at checkout the girl tried to act surprised and horrified, but basically just said she’d let the manager know. Since it’s a known issue per the housekeeper I don’t foresee the managing doing much. Luckily we were only there the one night on our way to the beach. My 3 year old and 5 year old eagle-eyed every Holiday Inn sign the rest of vacation and announced we can’t stay at the Ant Hotel. This place was a core memory in the worst way.

We stayed over basically just to sleep. Got there about 10:30 pm. Staff was friendly. The hotel was fully booked when we stayed. It has been updated lately which was nice. Our bathroom had a small issue when we checked in but maintence was called and showed up promptly and fixed it. Sheets, mattress and towels were all clean and fresh. The bathroom had not been cleaned well. Could see cup rings on the counter tops and dirt and hair on the bathroom floor. Cobwebs in the corners of the bedroom. But it was quiet and gave us a place to sleep for the night. Did enjoy the pool in the morning, breakfast was mediocre.

The hotel smelled of body odor and dampness when we walked in. The lobby was not out of the ordinary, so we went up to our room. The elevator had panel edges peeling and wobbled back and forth. When we got to floor 2, we got off the elevator to a damp and urine smell. As we walked down the hall to our room there was a bucket on the floor to catch water dripping from a pipe in the ceiling. Our room was damp and had black mold all over heater/ac unit vents. The floor was dirty and had human hair all around the edges and the sink. I had to wash the floor in the bathroom and entry way myself, to which the towel i used was turned black. The beds were disheveled, made, but not well. My 8 year old could do a better job. We went to swim and the hot tub was green. The pool room floor was slimy where wet from the pool water. The morning staff set out room temp food and looked miserable. Overall i would never go there again, and this is the 2nd holiday inn express ive been disgusted at. This chain used to be our family favorite for trips, now we will avoid them completely. We will use drury inns where possible.

Absolutely disgusting pit ran by thieving hillbillies. Dirty room, trash in hallways, NO HOT WATER the ENTIRE time we were there, water leaking heavily from ceiling tiles in the hallway, hotel filled with dirty construction workers partying all night. Worst of all: I’m a 100% disabled veteran traveling with my service animal as I have been for over a decade with no issue. When checking in it clearly states I’m disabled with an animal on my reservation and I informed the front desk upon check in. The surly trashy old lady at the front desk was clearly not paying attention to me just joking with a bunch of dirty workers and didn’t care what I said. After checking out they charged me an ADDITIONAL $75 on top of the already ridiculously overpriced room rate of $129 because of a “pet fee”. When I called to ask why I was charged when traveling with my service animal, the disgusting old woman who checked me accused me of having a fake service animal and lying about being a disabled veteran then hung up on me!!!!! Never in ten years of staying at 100s of hotels with my service animal as a disabled Iraqi war veteran have I ever been treated this way. Luckily I was able to contact Holiday Inn Express corporate complaint department to lodge a formal complaint and was informed they’d be launching an investigation into the disgusting witch of a front desk manager for her horrible actions. Oh and this one horse town has literally NOTHING to eat!

I was placed in a room that needed repairs, the covers were stained and there were ants. When calling down to the front desk I was asked to bring the cover down because they were short staffed and told they could do nothing for me because they were completely booked AND because I booked the room on Expedia. The next day in the morning I asked if there were any rooms available and was finally placed in another room for the night which was much better.

The hotel was very clean and mostly modern. The bathroom could use an update and replace the old tub with a low threshold shower. The staff was very friendly. I did not like being told I had to pay a 200.00 incidental deposit upon check in. This was not disclosed on the website when I booked. And I was told it was because I lived within 80 miles of the hotel. This is unacceptable and deceptive. This needs to be disclosed on the booking sites like Hotels.cim etc. If I would have known of that charge at the time I biike. I would not have booked thia hotel. They said it would be re released the 200.00 back to my card within 5 business days. As consumers we have a right to the amount off these fees at time of booking. I will be contacting the BBB. I was told it's becauae the local people make messes. That is discrimination.

I was told they didn’t have a two queen room for me… though that’s what I booked five months in advance. They blamed hotels.com then found out it was their issue ( messaged with someone who was so kind and helpful) I’ve been told they were giving me 2000 points on my account because of the inconvenience but don’t know where to find those points. Eugene at the front desk is the one who lied about the overbooking issue… I didn’t appreciate that. He could have just stated that they messed up and I probably would have dismissed the issue.

The hotel was good - it is in a convenient location, clean room, friendly staff.

My room was comfortable and immaculate when I checked in at this Holiday Inn Express and Suites. The room I was given on the first floor was also incredibly quiet. Although the hotel was completely booked, I heard nothing in the hallways until 8 am. The breakfast offering also far exceeded my expectations with lots of selections. Probably the best breakfast I have had at any hotel recently. My only two criticisms was the check-in was slow when I arrived. The person at the front desk was on a personal call and then once she hung up, she had a phone call related to a medical emergency at the hotel. Also, parking was at a premium but only because of my late arrival. I did find a parking space though. All in all, I would highly recommend this hotel to weary travelers.
