A Little Let Down

It was okay. The room was a sad, worn out version of the one displayed on their website. The sleeper sofa was in desperate need of a re-stuff and reupholstering. There were MANY stains on the carpeting in the room. The bathroom was fairly clean, but there were multiple hairs attached to some of the towels. We had also requested a room away from other guests, and did not receive that request fulfilled. It was a little disappointing in quality considering the price I paid.

Not Our Best Stay

Front desk clerk was very nice on check in as well as when we requested a change. The carpet in our room was filthy. We asked for a different room the remainder of the stay and was given a smaller room with carpet just as filthy. Carpets were so bad that we did not go without our shoes at anytime during our stay. Sleeper sofa so filthy we put a blanket down before sitting on it. We had to wash chair and side tables so we could use them. Pillows terrible. TV options very limited. People in parking lot smoking (not cigarettes) with kids in their car. More than once in the evenings we went to front desk(for towels or snacks) and clerk was outside. Early part of week stay was manageable, end of week felt very unsafe. We have stayed at other Holiday Inn Express properties and have been very pleased. Not the case this time.
