Overall the property was nice. The pool was closed and the ice maker on the lower level was not working. Continental breakfast could be improved by offering fresh fruit. Nice grassy areas around the property to walk a dog. Suggest putting in a dog waste station.

Decent hotel near Kaufman Stadium. It could use some upgrades, but it was fine fir what we needed. Getting on and off the property is, frankly, hazardous because of passing traffic. The roadway traffic makes entering traffic quite tricky. Decent breakfast, nice staff, and reasonable rates will allow me to return despite the traffic issue.

No outside door fobs work. The whole hotel has a smell of marijuana. Breakfast was limited and not restocked and it had only been open for 30 minutes. Extreme noise disturbance above our room from 12am-2am, stomping feet and running around. Was fine for the quick stay we needed, but nothing for luxuriness.

Hot mess of a hotel

Checked in saw the condition of the tro checked out. There were unidentifiable liquids splattered on the. The bathtub was covered in hair. No bed bug covers on the bed. And the room was overall dingy and smelled unpleasant. There full refund and this should removed from hotels. Com and lose their IHG flag.

This is the worst Holiday Inn Express that I’ve ever stayed in… the condition of the hotel was very poor. The pool was small and dirty. The people working here didn’t even speak English very well. They were not accommodating at all. The air conditioner was broken in our room so we asked to switch rooms. They charged us $56 extra to change our room. Then when I asked about the extra charge, they ended up charging me a 2nd time $56! The breakfast was very poor quality and quantity! They did not have a commissary or anything that we could purchase to drink or snack on. The parking lot is small and the pictures online are clearly edited! I will never book this hotel again!! I really wish I had taken pictures of the hotel so I could upload them for others to see.
