We stayed here this past weekend because my daughter was in a pageant in Waterloo. We had an excellent stay and when/if we are in the area again, this is definitely the place we will pick to stay. All of the staff was very nice and welcoming. Whether we were coming or going, they were always saying hello and asking... More

I am currently staying here as we speak. The rooms are neat, clean, orderly. Decorated nicely. My only complaint, and it isn't anything the hotel can help, is the hotel is near the highway (hywy 218 I believe) so there was a fair amount of traffic noise. I was on 3rd floor and my room was the end nearest the... More

This hotel is right next to the highway. During my previous stay,I attributed the traffic noise to the poor window seal. This time, the window appears ok, but it is still noisy! Perhaps they should offer free sleep sound generators in every room...

Stayed here one night on 11/5/11, were in town for UNI football game. Didn't have any trouble finding the place with GPS directions. Not sure what went wrong with other reviewers. Arrived at 1:30 pm and was able to check in right away, no wait at desk. Stayed in room 415, view of another building, and freeway, don't think any... More

Totally agree with the previous reviewer who said not to rely on GPS. We used an online application for directions and were sent on a wild goose chase using the hotel zip code. When we finally arrived we were checked in quickly and efficiently. Our room was spacious and absolutely spotless. All the expected amenities were present as well as... More

We followed our phone GPS, which took us the long way around and had us on "old LaPorte Road". We weren't far from our hotel, but we did stop at a gas station and ask. Hotel was typical clean HIE. We stay HIE a lot to get free nights and have not been disappointed.

If I were reviewing trying to book a room on the Holiday Inn Express website or by phone, I would give only one star. I have booked hotels, B and B's, and apartments all over the world, but their website would not accept two of my credit cards and I was only able to get a recording and then was... More

Very nice newer Holiday Inn Express. Rooms are modern and clean. Front desk staff needs some customer service training. Not particularly friendly and no recognition for PC status.

We were going to be in 8 hotels over 16 nights so booking each was a big questionmark. Holiday Inn Express did not disappoint. It was clean - the most important factor. We arrived late and the check-in was smooth. The breakfast was exactly what you would expect - juice machine, coffee machine - banana's - dry cereal. Not your... More

Cleanly building with spacious, nicely decorated rooms. However, we experienced some hiccups with room service and front desk. House keeping neglected to refill our toiletries and coffee, and unfortunately could not communicate in English when I requested toilet paper. Also, arranged for late check out and message was not relayed. I was locked out of my room with no socks... More
