What guests think

Amenities like the pool, hot tub, and sauna are appreciated, though guests report occasional closures, cool temperatures, and strong chlorine odor. Room size and layouts earn praise, but noise from adjacent rooms or upstairs and some HVAC sounds are recurring complaints. Parking can be tight, especially when trailers are present, and a few guests faced slow check-in or billing issues. Expect a clean, comfortable, roadside stay with popular amenities.

Very clean room, beds were comfortable, and the breakfast was good! The only hang up was the pool… it was a little green and a little dirty. We took the kids to the park to play instead of swimming which was the main reason for the hotel…

I would have given it 5 stars, but we were told at check-in that the pool was closed for remodeling/repairs. We had some kiddos that were bummed that they couldn’t swim.

Excellent hotel! Very modern, clean, great lighting, great breakfast, pool, hot tub, AND sauna! Coffee machine that actually grinds the beans was really cool. Right off the freeway, easy check in and out, definitely recommend.

Pool is absolutely vile, avoid it at all costs. Chunks floating everywhere. The smell from the chlorine of the pool can be enjoyed virtually everywhere in this hotel, even 3 floors away from it in your room. Staff were fantastic, but what can they possibly do about these issues? The staff were the only saving grace of this entire stay.

The room was clean - of the factilities I can not complain except for the fact they allowed two large trailers (a boat and a cargo trailer) that took up about 12 parking spaces combined --- so finding a spot on a busy night was impossible. I had to park in an unofficial spot. Sound deadening in the room was so-so. People upstairs stomped like they were at making wine, and some utility noise. But not bad. leaving the AC fan running covered things up decently. OVerall it was a very pleasant stay.

You need parking for trucks with trailers; I was driving a Dodge ram with a small trailer and had to pull across several parking spots; two other guests did the same.

I travel quite a bit for work and have stayed in many Holiday Inn Express and Suites hotels but this one was by far the cleanest. It also seemed to be updated. I was there for 3 days and every time I would get back from work and walk in the room, it smelled fresh not musty and old like some others. I was very pleased!! I highly recommend this hotel!!!

We would stay again. Easy on/off the interstate. Very comfortable bed, nice clean newer hotel. We waited nearly 15 minutes, at 6:20pm, for the front desk staff to return from doing unexpected housekeeping duties as that staff was gone for the day. Other guests were waiting also. The walls are very thin, could hear music and noise from other rooms. Nice hot breakfast, but a very crowded seating area.

The hotel was in great shape, rooms were big and very clean. I booked the wrong dates for my stay and Orbitz would do nothing to help me change it. Orbitz indicated they contacted the property manager and they would not change the dates and i'd have to rebook (costing another night). I called the manager directly and he was friendly and worked with me to adjust my stay. Great experience all around, would recommend staying here to anyone. Will think twice before using Orbiz to book again.

Always fresh and it’s honestly very good coffee which is a plus! Would definitely stay here again!

Our check in people were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and welcoming. The pillows definitely need a refresh as they had no substance at all. The breakfast area was clean and replenished often. The only thing is they do not have a waffle maker but instead a machine making pancakes that are very rubbery and tasteless.

Room was clean. Breakfast was very good! Employee running breakfast did a great job at keeping it stocked and very clean. Pool itself was nice. Hot tub had some issues, jets did not work. And during the 3nights I stayed the hot tub was always so hot it turned skin red almost instantly, so no one was ever able to be in it. Last day, there was pieces of toilet paper floating all over it in and it was never cleaned out. From night before to next evening they all still were floating.

This is our favorite place to stop and stay when traveling. The rooms are always clean, the breakfast is warm and well-stocked, and the staff is consistently friendly and welcoming. The only downside is that prices have increased over time, and breakfast offers very few allergy-friendly options aside from the occasional fruit. We would love to see more accommodations for guests with dietary restrictions in the future.
