Only improvement is a comment on Breakfast. The pancakes taste like cardboard. Novel concept but lacks flavor and good texture. Muffins and bagels and cinnamon rolls are a better choice

No pen or pads to leave housekeeping a thank you note. Name tags for desk support is really small. It’s hard to read name tags.

I wish customer service existed here. I booked this hotel for family for a funeral. I called the fron desk and asked for some help with my reservation, Yolanda, told me she was having issues with her system and to call back in 15 min. Rather than take my information and call me back. She made me call. So I did.
I called back and asked about my reservation since I was experiencing issues - I got Yolanda again with her supervisor in the background and me on the speaker phone. I explained the story once again, Yolonda asked how I booked. I explained directly through Holiday Inn Express. She told me she couldn’t do anything and that I had to “call them directly” or fix my issue through the app.
I seriously questioned this comment since they are the front desk and oversee the reservations and I was more confused when she (and the supervisor) told me I needed fix it through the app. Still confused, I didn’t under why they couldn’t help me. They told me to add another person to the reservation to resolve me. I told them I tried to but I couldn’t. They said again, “you’ll have to call us directly or fix it through the app”. The supervisor in the background was loud enough that Yolanda didn’t have to repeat back instructions. Yolanda was ready to get off the phone since she told me “I’m almost off for the day and I won’t be able to assist”. I said “never mind I’ll figure it, maybe I’ll just cancel and try again”
I called IHG customer service and spoke with Amy, she at least tried to help me. Amy ended up calling the front desk at the hotel and explained the situation. Somehow miraculously Yolanda and the supervisor were able to fix my reservation. Amy was also confused why they didn’t want to help me or fix the situation directly.
I would not return here or recommend this location. Save your stress.
