It is definitely an old property, needs maintenance and upkeep. After being moved to three different rooms, the stay was ok. First room no a/c or phone and missing tv, second room the a/c would not shut off at all (it was freezing in the room and it takes a lot for me to get cold), third room was good. The staff was very friendly and helpful-apologetic, although I would have preferred a discounted rate given the situation. It'll work in a pinch.

The facilities were fine. When we checked in there was only one person working and she struggled with the computer system for 20 minutes before we got our keys. She was also the same person cooking breakfast the next morning, while also manning the front desk.

We originally booked a king suite just for the attendant to "upgrade" our room and put us in a double queen. We were traveling with our infant hence the reason for the king size bed. There were holes in the bathroom wall and the bathroom was dirty. The sink was very slow to drain as well. The desk chair had scribbling all on the back. I dont know what it is with Holiday Inn Express but their elevator is always down. The side exit security door was also broken. The breakfast selection was horrible. Everything was old, hard and cold. The pancake maker was broken and the juice dispenser had very watered down juice. I think we're done with Holiday Inn..

The toilet paper holder was across the bathroom above the sink and almost above my head!! I informed the staff when I checked out. The response; wish you would’ve told us sooner.” I was going to a wedding. What about the housekeeping staff that cleaned the room, multiple times and placed the TO there!! Room was clean, blackout curtains worked well. A bit difficult to find due to construction.. overall a good stay

The room and bathroom were dirty. Hair on the floor, stained walls and floors. The tub felt like it was about to fall through the floor, and the shower curtain was too short so the floor was soaked. The continental breakfast included rock-hard stale bread and muffins. There was no milk for the cereal.

Will never stay here
Manager is a greedy jerk. Wasn’t able to get to town due to a cancelled flight. I notified the hotel so they could release the room. They refused to move my reservation to the next day even though they weren’t sold out and so just took my money. Unethical.

The hotel is under construction so there was a lot of work going on. The room was okay but the water wasn't hot enough in the shower.

Needs a facelift
This hotel is so run down, which makes it feel dirty, mold in bathroom and much more expensive than the nicer ones next door. I only stayed here because I’ve stayed at other Holiday Inn’s and they have been nice, and the ones next door had no Availability.

Upon arrival, we found out that the hotel was under renovations. When we got to our room and tried to take showers, there was no hot water.
