The breakfast wasn’t good. The floors in the lobby and elevator were disgusting. It was unbelievably hot everywhere except the room. The fitness room is very small, no free weights, and barely any equipment to use.

This is the 4th time we have been at this hotel. The staff is friendly and helpful, full breakfast, clean and newly remodeled rooms. The hotel is minutes away from the main shopping strip. We've enjoyed ourselves. Downside: only that there seemed to be a lot of chlorine in the pool. Perhaps I am just oversensitive to it though. Overall it's a nice place for the price. I'd stay again.

The lobby and first floor were under reconstruction. Pieces of debris on the unfinished lobby floor had not been swept up or picked up. Outside trash bin was overflowing with trash. Sign on outside dumpster fence gate "Holiday Inn Express", reflected the trashy, unkempt appearance of the property. On the other hand, front desk personnel were very friendly. Breakfast food was very tasty.

The first floor was under construction & the room smelled like cigarettes. The price didn’t match the experience. I can’t believe the hotel was open for business. Even the parking lot was full of containers and construction equipment. I can’t believe I had to pay for this.

The room was not cleaned properly prior to our arrival. I've found dry chicken skin and crumbs in the pull out sofa, a single use eyelash by the bed, and shirt tags on the walls. The fridge doesn't close so water leaks out. I did not try any of the amenities due to the state of the room. Overall the experience was unsatisfactory and unpleasant.

If i could give this property zero stars I would. The room I rented was Obviously dirty the tub haf a ring aound it the tub had stains dirt on the shampoo bottles and on faucet. The room smelled malodorous i stopped the housekeeper and Tried to ask her to clean the room. She stated she did not speak english and show me a list of rooms for her to clean.And that my room number was not on that list. I went down to the front desk and ask For the room to be clean And the person behind the desk said okay.I'll send someone. That never happened. There was a stain on the desk by the phone. The floors in the elevator and the second floor were dirty And stay that way the entire stay. I will not stay here again. I also have pictures.

Room was ok,nothing special. The ac was so loud and sounded like it was ready to break. The other people staying in the hotel were slamming doors while we were trying to sleep.

Overall, the room was spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was basic but filling. The only problem was that, due to the lack of a non-slip mat in the shower or possibly an issue with the shower floor itself, my husband had a fall because it was extremely slippery. He hit his head, back, and hip. Honestly, even though we spoke with the front desk and requested an incident report, they never provided one. It truly was a miracle he wasn’t killed — if he had hit his head harder, the outcome could have been tragic. Guests really need to be aware, as this is a serious safety hazard. It is very dangerous, and he is still experiencing pain and bruising.

First, they checked me in to a dirty room. It hadn’t been cleaned from previous visitors. And questioned me if I had “messed it up” before reporting it (in the 2mins it took for me to go from the lobby & walk into the room!!). Second, the in-room coffee pot didn’t work, I asked for clean towels that never came. So I had to reuse dirty towels. Thirdly, my room keys were deactivated 3 different times. I had to keep going to the lobby to get them re-activated just to get in the room. Last, the outside smelled out marijuana.

Had to interrupt and say pardon me before acknowledged. Floor in hallway had sand trackings. Staff was not concerned and was not cleaned. No cleaning service completed for 3 nights stay. All in all served the purpose.

After checking into another hotel nearby & being very unsatisfied, we checked out & headed over to Comfort Suites. The staff was welcoming & the main lobby was modern & clean. We checked in to our room & we were very pleased. Very clean & smelt great in the room & walking through to halls. My only complaint was the size of the tv, it was hard to see from all three beds. The breakfast was mediocre but okay! Overall great stay.

We had picked another hotel and it was nasty. Expedia helped us cancel that reservation. This hotel helpwd us get a room and it was much better still not great but good. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom nees work big time but for a bathroom. It worked for the needs. The lady on the front counter was amazing. Breakfast was very dispointing there was almost no food at 8:30 am and all the tables were dirty and the garbage was over flowing. Not the best experiance but worked for an emergency stay. I wouod probably not stay here again.
