Stayed one evening following MSU football game. First stay at this location. Room was clean. Smooth check in and check out. Staff friendly and courteous. Higher number of food choices than most other hotel chains that provide free breakfast.

We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express during a visit to Mississippi State. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean, quiet and comfortableBreakfast was good with a very nice eating area and lounge. Free beer and pretzels in the afternoon was a nice touch during the hot weather. The pool area was clean but otherwise unexceptional. For the price, the stay was a good value. By calling the hotel, I got a better discount than was offered on line. I would stay here again.

This hotel lacks a lot. Although, the breakfast in the morning was good and the staff were helpful. I stayed here for a week at the first of may and am now staying another week at the end of may. Since my work is paying for my room I had no choice, but to stay here. Had it not been for that, I probably would not stay here again. I am here on business, and traveling alone. Being a woman, I am very cautious by myself. The first I was put in a 1st floor room with a horrible musty odor, and the a/c was less than adequate. The second week, upon check in discovered my room (although the room was not musty), the deadbolt was broken. I was moved to four other rooms (which all had the musty odor) before finally getting one with a working deadbolt. However, was horrified to find when I woke up the next morning, that the peephole was missing from my door. And there was nothing but a hole in which any peeping eye could have looked through and seen the entire inside of my "private" room!

The room key card readers didn't work 75% of the time, which meant multiple trips with bags in hand up and down the elevator. The toilet paper holder kept popping out of the wall every time I pulled on the roll. I had to request a second room because the first had an overwhelming smell of smoke, which later made it miraculously to my second room (maybe though the bathroom ventilation.)

I'm sure this is one of the better options in Starkville, but it left me very frustrated.
