2/10 Poor

We checked in and as soon as we did, the people upstairs started stomping on the floor, which sounded like they were coming through our ceiling. I complained several times and nothing they kept us up all night. We didn’t get any sleep. It was the loudest and noisiest hotel I have ever stayed in and I will never state another Holiday Inn.

I was impressed by the admitting staff - very helpful. The other thing that impressed me was DOVE soap offered in the bathroom. I rarely see that. Loved the coffee machine in the lobby, not to mention the pod coffee pot in the room. We had a great stay at this Motel.

I have stayed here a few times. I also stay at other hotels in other cities and this location is, by far, the best!! The staff is always pleasant, the condition and cleanliness of all the spaces is always 5 stars and even the food is better than other Holiday Inn Express locations. I highly recommend this location.
