    The staff was friendly and the breakfast was great. The bed was hard and it had a big dip in it. It was very uncomfortable. The furniture was stained and there was rust everywhere. This is one of the worst rooms I have ever stayed in.

    I have stayed at many Holiday Inn Express locations and this is the worst one. The king size mattress was completely shot on both ends and sagged deeply. I crawled to the center of the mattress which was more firm but nobody should be asked to sleep on that. The breakfast was fair but missing several elements that other Holiday Inns have such as real eggs and strong coffee. Also, the location is peculiar and it is impossible to walk anywhere from the hotel - which is trapped in an island of interstates. Skip this hotel.

    I travel a lot and always stay at Holiday Inn Express or any IHG hotel when available. The mattress was far from comfortable. There is no excuse for an IHG property to have such saggy, worn out mattresses. Housekeeping is not great either. Microwave has burn places in it. After my shower the water ran all the way to the room door. I set the trash outside my door only to have it sit there for 2 days. This hotel is in need of some love, attention and updates.

    I am a platinum elite member, so I have stayed in many HIE. This wasn't a good experience at all. The room had a smell, the bed was uncomfortable. Back and neck was hurting the next morning. Bed needs to be replaced. I found hair all over my towel after my shower. I will not stay at that hotel again. ☹️
