The place is filthy, from the lobby, to the elevator, to the carpet, to the room. Place is very outdated. We usually like Holiday Inn Express but this one is a real dump. Had to move to another hotel because the heater didn’t work, unseasonably cold weather, but regardless, HVAC should work.

Tub filled with water up to my ankles, noise level from hallway was terribly loud especially when people were coming & going after midnight. Felt like the room was a college dorm instead of a Holiday Inn Express property. Overpriced for a one night Saturday stay and I won’t be going back.
