The girl that checked us in was very nice, the breakfast was well stocked and warm things were warm and there was lots of options, the pool was fun disappointed they don’t keep towels at the pool though and there were only two body towels in my room but 4 of us staying in there. The room was nice but the bathroom was grimy and the faucet was dirty and there were visible stains on the comforter. Less than ideal.

Our king size room was very spacious, comfortable and clean. I would add that the rug edges at baseboards needed vacuuming. It was quiet, even tho next to highway. The staff was very friendly and pleasant. We didn’t eat breakfast but I did grab 2 muffins for the road. It looked like a good variety of food available tho. Definitely would stay there again, if needed somewhere in that area.

Rooms filthy , hair and dirt everywhere . Took a paper towel to wipe the hair off the shower floor and it was brown indicating that it had not been thoroughly clean . Hair was on the toilet and floor and it was like it like I was in a house of hair . The poor staff tried. To fix it and she was working the front desk , and also had to come and clean the room . I won’t be coming back !

The staff was attentive and helpful - we got suggestions re where to have dinner nearby and they were overall lovely. The room was very clean, the heat worked perfectly (which was a real bonus bc it was frigid outside), ample towels, there was nothing we wanted that was not already provided. Staff even texted to make sure everything was up to snuff. I highly recommend this hotel.

The room had trash on the floor and a pair of socks in the corner next to the window. They made the beds how did they miss that? The alarm clock time was not updated. Neither was the microwave. When I called the front desk he said I don't know about that. He told me to leave a comment here! Didn't even offer to remove the socks.

Holiday Inn Express used to be our go to hotel, but we’re done after this trip. Neither of the beds had been changed after the last guest, they were just made back up. One of them still had lint from their pajamas on the sheets when we turned back the covers to go to bed. I called the front desk and was brought sheets to change myself. I understand that we got in at 1:30 am after a delayed flight, and no housekeeping staff was available, but I never should have had to make the call. In addition, there was hair on various parts of the toilet and pubic hair on the shower curtain as well as something smeared on the shower wall. We canceled our next night and went somewhere else. And guess what? When I got my emailed receipt, I was charged for both nights. Ridiculous!

The first room I was in, there was mould on the shower curtain and the towels were dirty. I was right beside the kitchen and my room filled up with grease smoke in the morning as they had the door to the kitchen open, so it was wafting down the hall. I was able to move rooms, which was great, but the second room still had issues. Parking felt safe, breakfast was good-- good options, but the rooms weren't all that great. There was chocolate milk or coffee on the window shade too? For the money I think there could have been better options in the area.
