Overall good experience, constant smell of marijuana was overwhelming and the pillows in the room were not comfortable. Staff language was a little uncouth coming from the workers on break outside, the front desk and kitchen staff were amazing. The room was clean, free breakfast great. Not a bad place to stay just need to address the professionalism of the workers on breaks and do more updates.

The breakfast buffet was pretty weak compared to other Holiday Inn Expresses I've been at. The property is a little tired. The biggest thing for me is that the tub sounded like it was going to collapse. Clearly the subfloor under the enclosure is rotted away. I was thankful every time I made it out alive.

Just a short weekend get away but the staff treated us as if we were family. They were most professional but REAL in their approach, friendly at all hours, and always willing to make our stay unforgettable. This was our first stay here but not our last. Jennifer and Shannon Roope

Bed sucked. Hard and springs poking you. TV channels only worked occasionally. Air wasn't working in room when we got there but they replaced the unit and fixed that. Had to go downstairs to get towels. People were mostly friendly. great location if you are going to casino. breakfast was the same everyday and needed some variety.
