We stayed for just one night on our way from Vegas to LA. It was the perfect half way point between the two cities. The hotel was clean & everything we needed. The breakfast was more than abundant with a nice variety of quality breakfast items. I would certainly recommend this location. More

After driving in Death Valley all day, we were looking for a trusted name. We found this a Holiday Inn on our GPS, AND it had the history of Route 66. As we entered a completely empty parking lot, we excitedly went in to ask for the walk-in rate. $109! After discussing it further with the front desk 'kid', we... More

I spend roughly two thirds of my life in hotel rooms due to my job. This is one of the worst hotels I have ever experienced. Tiny room, air-conditioner not functioning properly, no bath tub, thin walls - just a horrible night. And then, having booked my room using my Priority Club reward points, and being told there was a... More

My husband and I stayed here on a Sunday night. It was quiet and staff was very friendly and informative. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Only was a shower which is fine for us but when you walked in bathroom it felt like a space tube with really loud fans. Train yard behind hotel that is really loud but we... More

We should have known something was wrong when we checked in at reception and were provided a note that offered free earplugs. The noise from the adjacent train switching yard goes 24/7 and sounds like something scratching their fingernails on a blackboard. The rooms are tiny and the bathroom has to be the smallest I've ever been in (it felt... More

This is a typical Holiday Inn Express, clean and comfortable with great beds and bedding and a good breakfast in the mroning. There was some train noise, but it wasn't obtrusive. But our room was on opposite side of building. I grew up near trains and find the noise restfull when it's not too loud. Brings back old memories. This... More

I stayed here on a two week business trip. The first week was great, they warned of train noise from the switchyard that is located approx. 1 mile away behind the hotel but my room was on the lower floor about midway on the parking lot side of the hotel and the noise could not be heard inside my room....

The room was clean, but very small and cramped. The low ceiling didn't help (I'm 5'9" and my hands hit the ceiling when stretching my arms over my head). The hotel is located next to a major rail yard, so trains are screeching all night long and are quite loud. The HIExpress on Lenwood looks nicer, newer and in a... More

Ok, I read bad reviews all the time and wonder why people get online and cry like babies, over exaggerating about every little thing. I read these reviews of train noise before I stayed here and brushed them off because I sleep through anything. Trust me, it's bad. I'm wondering if the specific room you stay in makes a difference,... More

The rooms are very small with old furniture, and the shower was a bit scary - kind of like being in a cell. No elevator, so if you don't want to haul your luggage upstairs, ask for a room that isn't on the third floor. There is a train yard behind, so they offer free earplugs in case you are... More
