It seemed to me that when I checked in, the place was near empty but they put me on the second floor clear at the end of the hallway, which is inconvenient when you have a lot of heavy luggage. But I'm used to it and was just glad to get into the room. Clean, though a bit sparse. No... More

This is pretty much an average to slightly above average newer Holiday Inn Express. I have stayed here several times, the rooms are clean, the breakfast area is typically kept neat. Location is good considering that there is no airport that is actually at the terminal, but this hotel is less than a five minute drive from the rental car... More

The location is great. Bed quality is not that good, little tough, staff are weird, not bad, but little weird. One staff lady called me "sweety" and she looked like she was younger than me and i am 30. While checking out the morning staff looked like he had just stepped out of bed. Otherwise the hotel is ok, its... More

We paid considerable less for this hotel than we would have for a downtown Omaha hotel. We have stayed at the Magnolia and Embassy Suites in the past but on this date their rates were twice the amount we paid. Even the Holiday Inn located between the Express and downtown was 60-70 dollars higher on this date. The hotel was... More

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Clean room. Quiet.. A bit out of the way. Gas station right next door. Breakfast was edible. More

Nice hotel for a weekend trip to Omaha. Decent room, but the pool was a little cold. The breakfast was a plus. More

We stayed at this hotel because it was close to the airport and we have young children and there was an indoor pool. The pool was horrible! It was 66 degrees in the pool room and the heat for the "heated pool" was not turned on. When I complained to the front desk, the woman responded that the manager was... More

I normally stay at the La Quinta ,across the street, when in town on business. I thought I’d give the Holiday Inn Express a try. Big disappointment. The room above me sounded like a circus. I called them and they calmed down. The HVAC is inadequate for the room size, which was spacious, but ran constantly and was very loud.... More

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. The hotel is close to downtown, the zoo and the airport. The breakfast room is large and they provide the average selection of hotel breakfast food. Our children loved the pool. We did not hear the airplanes or street traffic from our room. The beds were comfortable and the room was very... More

Hotel will not accept changes to your reservation (we tried 3 weeks in advance) - and WILL charge your credit card. We needed to cancel one night of a four night reservation (3 weeks in advance) - but were charged. Do NOT believe the Holiday Inn cancellation policy of 72 hours - this hotel will NOT honor. Calls to Corp... More
