- SASteven Amsden4 days ago5.0Clean room, beds were kind of hard, but not terrible. Would stay again
- TGThomas GreenSep 16, 20265.0Holiday Inn Express Alpena is centrally located which makes it great for walkabouts.
- TETara Payne EisenhauerAug 10, 20265.0That was the view from our window, the room was nice and clean
- SGSteven GerenAug 4, 20264.0Great location, friendly staff and my bed was made all 3 days. My only complaint is apparently there is a $5 a night amenity fee. To their credit they removed it but it seems a little sneaky when it doesn't show up on my booking or my receipt. This was a business trip and I booked it through Egencia so it would be nice if the hotel would communicate this to the booking site my company uses. Again no complaints at all except the surprise fee.
- MJMelissa JohnsonJul 24, 20262.0We stayed here last minute to get out of the hazardous air blanketing Michigan while on vacation. This is the third holiday inn express we’ve stayed at this summer. Each in a different Michigan city. This Alpena location has been the worst and doesn’t meet the standard. We were happy to get a room, because the hotel was nearly fully booked. Check in was smooth/easy. Housekeeping needs work. Our room was for the most part clean, but I question whether our linens had actually been cleaned, because I found hair on the pillow cases. When they changed the towels, they only gave us one clean bath towel!! Breakfast was standard offerings, but somehow came across as low quality coupled with poor presentation. The little lobby store robs you blind. They charged $8 for Cup Noodle Ramen that is 59¢ at the grocery store. The pool is very small and cold. Location was great and easy walking distance to places. I don’t foresee recommending this location to anyone in the future.
