The room was extremely dirty, it felt as if the room was not cleaned from the previous guests. Tooth paste on the mirrors, urine on the floor, hair in the sheets of bed, the shower was absolutely filthy. When we spoke with the front desk staff they were dismissive and state there was nothing they could do until the next day.

More help at front desk so it didn’t take 1/2 to get checked in The entrance doors were extremely loud. Our room heard everyone coming and going into hotel to the point we left a night early to come home to get a quiet of sleep since neither my husband or I slept the night before The gentleman at desk, Michael, was very kind and apologetic BUT I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The hallways smelt horrible- Only gave it an “okay” because of Michael. Honestly it would be a “POOR” otherwise. Shame on HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS!!! Not work the $300.00 we spent!!!!!!!

Pros: You can bring your dog for only $25 a night. The staff was friendly. Hot breakfast available every morning. Cons: The room was musty and smelled of mildew. Running the bathroom fan 24/7 and making sure the AC was running did not help. The walls had stains and the bathroom had beard shavings in the sink. If it weren't for the poor air quality in the room, the rating would be 1-2 stars higher.

I normally stay at this hotwl when I stay in the area, but the room smelled like mildew and the tv didn't work at first until a staff memeber came and fixed that issue. The elevator worked fine the night we got there, but the next morning it seem to be not functioning well. Other than that it was a great stay and the breakfast was on point. Thank you for you hospitality great staff!!!
