Not quite up to Holiday Inn Express standards

Not up to the standard I’ve seen from Holiday Inn Express, but still a good hotel. A bit pricy for the quality, but maybe that was a surge pricing. Breakfast was missing some items I usually see at a HIE hotel, and the room was not quite as nice as usual. This is obviously another brand hotel that’s been purchased and rebranded, and they’ve done their best. The real downside is the location. It’s not convenient to the freeway, and not near any services except a sports bar a short walk away. Basically this is in the sticks.

Can’t wait to stay again

This was our second stay at this hotel while visiting the area, and once again, it didn’t disappoint! The sports bar/restaurant located just behind the hotel made everything so convenient—it was great having a good meal just steps away. The staff was consistently helpful and very friendly, which made our stay even more enjoyable. As long as there’s availability, we’ll definitely continue to stay here whenever we’re in town!

We were traveling very late and found this hotel on Expedia. Called the front desk to let them know we would be arriving later and Katie was so sweet! She put us at ease that we would be able to check in later with no problems. Front desk clerk got us checked in quickly and was very kind. Room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Breakfast was great and staff were monitoring area to clean and refill food as it was taken.

Very nice hotel and room, however it is in a very remote area. Not very convenient if looking for a variety of restaurants or activities in the area. It was rather noisy throughout the night with people in the hallway and the people staying upstairs were constantly walking back and forth.
