Great location

This hotel has so much to offer at a reasonable price. The room was incredibly clean and fit our family of 5 without feeling squished. The bathroom had all Dove products (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap AND lotion!) which was a nice and surprising touch. Breakfast was great; very clean all around the food areas and the staff were out in the breakfast area a lot checking on stock and restocking as needed. The pool was a good size and the pool area felt comfortable. It was convenient having laundry services on site. My only two not real complaints but more like observations: the corridors and adjoining rooms were not the quietest (we heard lot of talking outside our room in the corridor when anyone walked by); and the common areas could use a little more attention to cleaning (such as washing the floors and wiping down the walls in the elevator). Other than those two minor things, we would seek out this hotel again.

Next to Interstate, but friendly staff, clean stay

This hotel is directly next to the interstate If you are light sleeper, choose a different hotel. As always, breakfast at the Holiday Inn Express was stellar. Staff was friendly.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Unfortunately, my stay was far from pleasant. The cleanliness of the room left a lot to be desired—both the sink and toilet had visible stains, clearly not properly cleaned from the previous guest. The sink drained painfully slow, and the water pressure throughout the bathroom was weak. On top of that, the “hot” water was barely lukewarm. For the price I paid, I expected much better. The overall experience did not match the cost, and I left feeling disappointed and frustrated.

I liked almost everything about the place. Clean rooms, although the shower did not have much water pressure. Maybe it was just our room. Room 311. My real complaint is that my card was charged for all three rooms that I reserved before I got there. My room was cost split with someone, but we both got charged the full price. I think we have it worked out now. I will probably still stay there next year. Also the breakfast was great!

We were only there to sleep. Got there at 130am and left by 8. Did get coffee and tea in the morning! Comfy beds. Noisy in the morning as our room was by a side entrance and it sounded like folks were walking through our room. But it was clean.
