Gross!! Used personal items
We stayed after a concert. The room was not clean. My kids ended up finding used personal items from last We didn’t realize it that night but my two young kids found it and picked it up. Manager didn’t even come talk to us a check out and said she might give us a discount. I’m never staying again and will be looking at charging the fee back. That was beyond gross.

Mixed review this time
My first night the hotel was busy as it was on a Saturday. Lots of families, which was fine except around 11pm when kids were out in the halls screaming. Bother staff’s fault, I’ll just never understand why people don’t just go into their rooms to make noise. Try to get a room away from the pool if possible, noisy due to a pump or generator that kept coming on. I’ve stayed here before, and none of this has ever been a problem. Internet and cable were also spotty, not sure why. I will say that the staff here are always excellent. Very polite and helpful

Nice stay
The gentleman checking me in was very polite. The breakfast was awesome. The only thing I could complain about would be the noise from the nearby highway. I would stay here again.

The property was immaculate. We were passing through and it was very easy to get on and off the highway. The women working the morning of 6/26 were very impressive. Very interested in our opinions on how they could improve. That interaction made a great impression. Would definitely recommend.

The manager, Jewell, at this location is a true gem, There was a mistake with another reservation we had at another IHG location, she was very helpful in trying to get it all taken care of. She is very personable and made us feel at ease. IHG/Holiday Inn Express is very luck to have her!! Thank you for a great stay.
