8/10 Very good

There was a lot of hair in the sheets the air conditioning worked well, got a hot shower
Faith, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff was very nice. This property was clean but clearly older, dark, and shabby. Considering the exorbitant price per night, we expected a much nicer property. The worst problem was finding this hotel! Hotels.com has the wrong address posted for this Holiday Inn Express! We discovered this when we drove to the posted address only to be told we were at the wrong Holiday Inn Express! Hotels.com needs to post the correct address!
Dana, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Waited a half hour for the front deak attendant that was "helping another customer" yet came in the front of the hotel. Literally a half hour. Breakfast was lack luster. Heard every sound in hallways 24/7. Walls are super thin.
Christie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Poor room conditions

The room was in terrible condition. Peeling wallpaper and the toilet seat was not attached to the toilet. Bathtub had been repainted overtop of dirt and hair. All of the common areas were kept uncomfortably hot.
Lizabeth, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Hotel was dirty and very run down. Breakfast was good. Pool was dirty. Saw a guy shooting up outside of the pool area.

It was an unplanned trip due to the flash floods and tornado in the area. The room was Clean and the pool was a heated pool which is great. Kids enjoyed the breakfast.
Patricia, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

There was trash not cleaned up by housekeepers left from previous guests. The pull out bed was absolutely disgusting with bad stains, the third floor smelled of pee with a puppy pad in the hallway. The ice machines didn’t work, the pool was not cleaned very well and felt gritty.
Kayce, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I feel it’s a little rundown but it was very very clean and the staff was absolutely amazing and very king. They felt like family.
Travis, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Nothing good. The rooms I booked were not available because the card readers for the doors were broken. The check in staff couldn't figure out how to authorize the incidental deposit on my company credit card. Once the guys were finally in their rooms, the card reader broke again leaving one guy stranded in the hall and ultimately spending two hours with a maintenance man in his room until 11pm working on the door.
Dalton, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Spent one night here while moving. It’s less than 10 minutes to the baseball and football stadiums. Room was solid and the staff was nice. The internet was spotty in our room but that’s my only complaint.
Rory, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly staff.
Kenda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Krista, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Philip, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean and friendly

Check was easy and simply. Had a small issue prior when i called and they couldnt find my reservation due to i confirmed it though hotels.com. The room was cleans and the staff was very friendly. Wasnt to far from downtown or the sports complex
Carie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

All of the workers were very friendly and helpful, but seemed understaffed for a busy holiday weekend. The hotel needs some updating with paint and ceiling patches.
Amy, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The pull out couch in the room was not functional but everything else was great.
Monisha, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Everything was ok except the water didn’t drain properly and the bottles of shampoo and body wash were empty or broken. They gave us new bottles. We never mentioned the drain on the way out
Hoyatte A, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Ehh

The pictures were a little deceptive. It looks a little brighter and cleaner in the photos, but it definitely has kind of a creepy aesthetic to it when you first walk it. Just very dim lighting and eerily quiet.
Abriana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice decent place.
Lisa, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

I’m here for 2 days, I will not be coming back, refrigerator in room does not work, no towels in the pool, waiting over an hour for a room just a very unpleasant day and I still have one more to go
Gwendolyn, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

When we arrived, they didn’t have a room available. They put us in the basement.
James, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fitness room is an overstatement: two piece of equipment available. The cleanliness of the bedroom was disappointing and made me a bit uncomfortable at first.

8/10 Very good

Right on the highway, nothing in walking distance, but nice quiet & clean.

4/10 Fair

The bathroom was all, chipped paint, peeling wallpaper, dispensers didn't work. Tub was dirty. Breakfast bar wasn't replenished , no decaf coffee, dirty tables
