Average budget hotel despite the previous reviews. Staff was friendly and attentive. The breakfast was the bare minimum in terms of the usual buffet breakfast; no yogurt, fruit limited to oranges.

the room was spacious and the beds were comfortable. the rooms were clean. Love the Dove products in the bathrooms We were placed on the first floor, the room above us were extremely loud. We had to get up early for a softball tournament for my child, at 1130pm you could hear them running and stomping throughout the room.

Shower/tub/jacuzzi desperately needed attention. Slip mat had black mold and surface area around it needed pressure washing to remove caked on dirt/grime. Room had a funky sweat smell and needed airing out. Tissue box ran out of tissue after 4 times blowing my nose. Bathroom wall edges had some rust spots and badly in need of fixing.

Clean, comfortable, and breakfast was great! The bathroom shower could be better.

Everyone was so nice, I was doing a mommy getaway and I just relaxed in my room for my stay. I'm thinking about doing this once a month. They fixed my problem once I informed them. So I can't say anything negative

Very Rude Manager! Untrained; my 4-day stay was a terrible and inconvenient experience and will NEVER stay at a Holiday Inn at that location again!!! Tried to voiced my concerns and inconvenience to the manager on duty and she wouldn’t let me speak but threatened to call police because i complained of the bad experience. Made multiple complaints for help through out my stay and was never helped. One of the staff did come to my room to try and said he couldn't and that the manager will try to get maintenance the next day and couldn't relocate me because it was already late. Horrible experience and plan to follow up to the top owners at this hotel to address my bad experience. Very humiliating experience from this RUDE and insensitive lady claiming to be the manager. Even tri d to discourage me from call IHG corporate saying they are independent franchise. I plan to see this situation remedied or address. A customer complains and you threat call police! I need answers

Last minute trip for baseball, upon arriving our room only had 2 towels available for a room that sleeps 4. When i asked the next morning they said they were out of towels and that i could bring my dirty ones for them to wash…I almost felt i needed to go buy my own towels just to have enough for the 4 days we were going to be there. I have never been at a hotel where they had NO MORE towels (morning or night) the bathroom door would not lock, all the metal fixtures had rust stains, bathroom had mildew or moldy stains. The water didn’t get very hot and if i did it wouldn’t last long. Our tv remote had tape to help keep the batteries in. Some of our plugs did not work for all of our phones ect. Parking is very limited, i had to park at the restaurants in front of the hotel.The upside was it was very quiet area, close to most things. Overall it was ok for a quick stay but I wouldn’t recommend for 2 or more days if dingy is something you dont like.

Even though we only stayed for one night, our experience was great! The hotel is clean, quiet, we enjoyed our room and our kids did as well. Breakfast was good and the staff treated us very well from the receptionist up to the staff in charge of the breakfast and area. Totally recommend this hotel and will definitely use again when back in the area!!!

Overall, the staff & outside facility was good, but the working condition on the inside was all good. The room we stayed in the drainage in the bathtub was very slow. The tub was filling up fast while showering due to very poor drainage.

Overall a decent hotel. It had dirty windows, horrible orange juice, unexciting breakfast, so-so shower. Otherwise, the hotel was a typical Holiday Inn express. Bedding and furniture were decent. The TV's didn't have close caption.

I booked a 2 queen suite for a family of 5 and I arrived around 6 pm and they told me then they had no suites available for us. We had to cram in 2 queen bed and the shower was dirty and no hot water.

I had the worst experience. The hotel made an error on my booking and checked me out a day early. By checked out they went into my room and put all of my stuff in garbage bags including my suits and computer. I would offer grace is they had tried to contract me multiple times. This was not the case.

The property itself is better.than average though closest dining is an Arby's. There used to be an on the border franchise but based on the note on the door the owners were evicted. Mostly fast food type places nearby. Traffic patterns nearby can be defined as chaotic. I stayed twice in a ten day period, once on the way to Galvaston and once back to home. A tuesday night stay was only 72 dollars and can recommend at that price. The Friday stay was double that for the same kind of room so wouldn't recommend at the higher cost point. Plus side room was clean, wrll stocked sundries shop, has a fitness center however pol is closed in the wintet. Friendly staff, just an inconvient location so wouldn't recommend for a vacation but for passing through is acceptable.

This was a very clean a spacious property. I had an issue with the TV not working; it was remedied quickly by capable front desk staff. The most disruptive issue was intermittent flushing of the toilet. Sometimes it would flush and sometimes it would not.

Bathroom door would not close. There was a mark on bed. Shower faucet was loose. Towels were not completely dry. It was below one start hotel. I asked them to change the room which they did but 2nd room was not much different that first one. Everytime I enter the room, there is this bad smell. This was the worst hotel I ever stayed. I have stayed at Holiday Inn before and really loved their breakfast but it was nothing like that here. Nothing. I am never coming back to this place and will let my circle know to watch out for this kind of places. They were very cheap in taking care of the property.

The only issue I had was with the front desk person, she was a young woman, who checked me in. She wasn’t very pleasant and I asked her if I could be put on a high floor. She told me no as the hotel was full. I understood that but when I asked another person I was moved immediately. The night staff and the older lady in the morning were excellent. They were very friendly and accommodating. They are the reason I would stay at this hotel again:)

Tried to give my 9 month old, a warm bath and didn’t even have hot water to the tub. I had very little warm water coming from the tub. The Jacuzzi tub that we got with the suite didn’t even work. Front desk was no help saying that they don’t have maintenance on the weekends only on weekdays and my only option was to move rooms if I wanted a working tub with hot water. I have two kids under two and it was 7 o’clock at night. I was not moving them after a long day. The phone kept flashing red and we couldn’t get rid of the message on the phone. There was no guide for the tv. I had to flip through most of them to just commercials on every channel. Front desk told me that they would talk to their boss to give me points for my visit since it was not up to standard for them. She told that I will get an email the next business day. I wasn’t contacted in any way. Just disappointed in IHG.

When we arrived the first night it was late and we were exhausted only to find a stained comforter something splattered all over the door and a room that looks like it was twenty years out of date. The next day we were given a new room which was at least clean. This doesn't deserve to be classified as a holiday inn express motel 6 would have been better

Front desk was very helpful and was able to change me to a different wonderful room without a change in pricing due to the heavy smell of smoking. There is supposed to be no smoking, of course, so it was on the fault of a previous guest. But I liked how much brighter and well lit my new room was - mice decor and very comfy with a large bathroom and the much needed frig and microwave for super late night hours as well. The breakfasts were also very convenient and helped me get through a very grueling morning schedule. Would highly recommend with its affordability and friendly staff.

The hotel itself was clean and the staff was friendly. The breakfast was ok. Most items were out when we went through at 7:30. I did see someone restocking as we were leaving. The one thing that was a deal breaker was the scalding hot water in the shower that you could not lower. The front desk was oh yea that’s a problem we are replacing the faucets. It will be better next time. There will be no next time for us!

This could have been a five star. You took away one star because I arrived 45 minutes early and you asked if we could check in early. I was told by the front desk that none of the rooms are ready. And there was no way she would be able to check me in early. Find it odd that nobody on the server ready 45 minutes prior to check in. I have never had this problem and any other location.
