I’ve stayed at this Holiday Inn Express many times over the years and have always chosen it for its reliability and convenience. Unfortunately, my most recent visit fell far below the standards I’ve come to expect. The number and severity of issues during this stay significantly impacted the quality of my experience.
During this visit, I encountered:
Ants throughout the room and bathroom, including on my cosmetic bag and even on my contact lenses
A dog sitting on the lobby couch while being fed from the breakfast area
Multiple dogs barking for more than ten minutes before 8 a.m.
Two ripped duvets, along with hair in the bathroom, on several towels, and on the toilet and tub
Hallways and common areas that were visibly in need of vacuuming
A shower door that didn’t seal properly, causing water to pool on the floor—my husband slipped while getting out of the shower
When I called the front desk to report several of these concerns, the staff member I spoke with was dismissive, which added to the frustration.
I’ve always trusted this location, but this stay reflected a troubling decline in cleanliness, maintenance, and overall guest care. I made several attempts to speak with management and corporate so these issues could be addressed; however, I was told they had already spoken with me and that I had accepted 20,000 IHG points to “close the case.” This is not accurate—I received no calls or voicemails from anyone at IHG.
I truly hope this property takes these concerns seriously, as I would like to return to the level of service and cleanliness that made me a loyal guest in the past.

Staff are super friendly when they dont have to be. Just watched the manager deal with an extremely rude guest in the most patient way ive ever seen.
10/10 would watch a guy claim to have millions in his account and talk shit to holiday inn express employees just to get shut down. Manager April is 10/10
