I stay all the time, for years now, at the Lake Charles Hol Inn Express off MLK and it's FINE. I think it's adequate for what you should expect from any HIEx across the nation; the attendants are very nice and you'll soon find your way to Steamboat Bill's on the service road at the Big Bridge.

My family and I stayed here for a month while my husband worked in LC. The only problems that I had was timing everthing with housekeeping as we stayed there much of the day (I think they could have cleaned better sometimes, but I guess they thought since it was just us over and over maybe they didn't try as... more

Staff very helpful, decent breakfast (no hot dish as we had at other HIEs). Didn't notice any odor that previous reviews mentioned. more

The sheets on the bed looked like someone had already slept on them. Their was a hole in one of the blankets the size of a frisbee. We... more

I am a smoker and normally reserve a smoking room. I checked in to the Holiday Inn Express at Lake Charles.....walked into the hotel room and noticed a very strange-sick smell. I gathered up my belongings and went back down to the front desk to complain and ask for another room. The second room had the same air issue. I... more
