Very clean

I like staff

Close parking, well kept lawns, nice stay.

The lobby was clean enough, but the room was really in need of a refresh. There were broken tiles on the floor, the sink didn’t drain, the AC unit was noisy, the bathroom and ceilings were in disrepair.

Stayed with my children and we all loved it. Very spacious. Pool and hot tub were amazing. I would definitely stay at this hotel next time.

Nice room. Clean. No problems at all.

Great location. Nice facility. Hallway carpets looked like they could do with a good shampooing.

Safe and convenient. Good location. Easy in and out.

Worst hotel experience ever. Checked in through dirty rooms. And have to do room moved three times. All rooms that moved to, seem like someone was stay in there before. All hallways are so dirty. I should have listen to the reviews about this property. Never ever recommend anyone to stay with this location. Never seen Holiday Inn Express & Suites these worst before.

Have used this hotel two times in the past 3 months and had to change rooms both times. First stay- no tv in the room. Second stay - refrig was not working - due to the cord being too short to reach the plug. SERIOUSLY??? This last time, the owner decided to yell at the on-duty desk person. All of us at breakfast got to listen. Wow, how unprofessional. Doubt I will use this hotel again.

Clean plus a very friendly staff. It meet all of my expectations.

It was very clean and new. Staff was friendly. 👍👍👍

The hotel was super clean breakfast was great and staff was wonderful!!My daughter took my grandkids to pool and staff brought them swimmies and when she left blanket and barbie they saved them for her!They really went out of their way to make our stay great!Also they were renovating and we got a room no one had used yet so it was great!!Would go back again!

Myself and 2 friends were there for the tunnel hill 50 miler. No hot water for 2 days and after 50 miles one thing you look forward to is a HOT shower!! The bathroom sink also didn't drain. And there was very poor lighting, and the tv broke and we had to call maintenance. Not a good experience overall.☹

Very nice hotel and friendly people working there.

Nice Lobby! Wonderful front desk and manager. Upon our arrival at our first room the room had an unknown odor and the bathroom was dirty. The manager moved us to another room which was much better than the first one.

As any can imagine, when you are making a move across the country one might expect a little bit of comfort. This hotel was in an area that was about 25 minutes from any actual restaurants or stores. The worst part of this stay was that we had asked for a non-smoking room and our room still smelled like someone smoked 20 packs a day specifically in that one. Though, they were all full and couldn't move us anywhere else. With an infant in tow it just wasn't comforting and the man behind the front desk barely spoke English. We were too excited to get out of there the next morning.
