“If you like noise, this is your place.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 May 2011

Thought this was going to be good. Reception was cordial, Priority Club amenities, etc. But I noticed a lot of "music" coming from a barbecue joint/bar next door. "Music is loud, but the barbecue is good," said the woman behind the counter. Don't know about the meat, but there was a constant roar until after midnight. What would otherwise have been an acceptable stay was in fact a nightmare. Stay away.

Thank you for your positive comments regarding your stay, I will pass those on to the associates who handled your arrival and departure process. In regards to your comments on the business across from us, I do want to apologize. Since they opened almost 2 years ago, we have been in a great business relationship. About a year ago, they decided to extend the outdoor bar area which faces our hotel. We have been fighting with the city to mandate their license for outdoor to only 11 p.m. since we are an established business and we have guests that are using our facilities to sleep. We recently received another letter from the city regarding their license giving the local businesses an opportunity to send petitions in to fight their license and I am hoping this time we win. I realize this is not a solution to your past situation, but we are making an attempt to keep our establishment as warm and inviting as you mentioned in the early part of your comments.

“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 August 2009

person found this review helpful

I stayed in this hotel while moving my sister from Texas to Minnesota. The lobby was very clean, as well as the breakfast area and pool. There was a slight smoke smell, but nothing that was overwhelming. The business center has 2 computers and I was able to print out an alternate route for the rest of the trip. The room was very clean with fresh paint and the bed was very comfortable. It was by far one of the best breakfasts I had eaten at a Holiday Inn Express. Everything was very fresh and the refrigerated items were actually cold!!! The hotel is located right off of I-35 and there are many stores and eating places within walking distance. I never heard any of the traffic.

Thank you for your positive response. Please stop at our hotel any time you plan your trip to see her again. Liberty MO is a great stopping point on your trip to Texas - a nice way to break up the highway travel.

“Great bed-that's it”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 August 2008

The only thing I liked about this hotel was the bed...nice and hard and flat! Beyond that, nothing. The secondary entrances smelled of cigarette smoke, there was what appeared a vomit stain on the 2nd floor hall carpet, the bathroom ceilings were water-stained from above and the walls showed a lot of wear.

The breakfast would probably be OK for a family with little kids, but we found it unappetizing in appearance and ate breakfast elsewhere.

The flat panel TV, which had been adjusted to a 16:9 format was analog, not digital and made all the programming look fake. The console on which the TV rested, was crooked to about a 15 degree pitch.

O well, I could go on, but for $149, I expected much more.

To this review I must say I do apologize for the condition of the property as you experienced it in August of 2008. To date, we have completed a full renovation from tile on the floor, paint on the walls, fresh brand new furnishings, brand new 32" Flat Screen LG HDTV's, even the exterior of the building and other brand hallmarks are in place for our chains relaunch in 2010. I encourage you to come back and try us again, you will be pleasantly surprised with our changes.

“They gave away our room!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2007

We booked our room thru Hotwire 12 days in advance. The day before I called and requested a non-smkg room, which the mgr said she would do. It was to be a dbl room for 2 adults and 2 kids. When we arrived the mgr had given away our room & we were assigned a king size smoking room. All 4 of us in ONE bed, which is also against fire codes, as far as I know. They wouldn't do a thing about it, every hotel was full since the Yankees were in town and we spent 2 hours driving around til we found somewhere to stay. Dont put your family thru the frustration and the manager doesn't care about people who book on line!! We were told "If you reserve a room thru "one of those" you get what ever is left!"

  • Liked — I liked the idea of actually having a room there
  • Disliked — The management didn't honor our reservation
