Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The pool and the fitness center were in unacceptable condition. The pool was dirty, lots of leaves and debris with slightly greenish water. The fitness center was dirty. The floor needed to be mopped, and the carpet mat was so dirty it left my hand black and stuck with dirt and sand when I did pushups. Lastly, the treadmill could have severly injured me. I was running at a good pace, and it shut off mid stride. Luckily, I was able to react in time, but there was clearly some type of electrical malfunction. When I brought this to the attention of the front desk the reply I got was "Oh, well nobody has complained before." I couldn't believe my ears. This is why I rated service with 1 star. Unfortunately, other than that girl, the staff was amazing, but I just can't let that slide, she ruined it for everyone.

I waited at the front desk for over 10 minutes before any staff even came out. They got a 200 dollar deposit. The hotel snack store had absolutely nothing to drink. When I got to my room my TV didnt work. I will never stay at a Holiday Inn Express again. Horrible experience.
