“Good for Holiday Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2011

Everything was great. I didn't try their breakfast because coworkers wanted to eat at a fancier place, but room was clean, comfy. Seemed like a newer HIE, and was cleaner than others I've been in.

Pool was small, but relaxing. Didn't see anybody else using it. Fitness room was also small with only a single treadmill, and elliptical (maybe bike too?), but didn't see anybody else there, so it was nice to have to myself. Fitness room also had a nice TV with cable.

I kept putting my room key in my pocket with my cell phone and wiping the room key. The staff was very helpful and we laughed about it. Great, friendly staff.

Room Tip: I stayed on first floor. Don't forget to turn AC on. It's kind of hidden under the curtain...

“Would Stay Here Again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This was a last minute reservation and they were very accomodating. i asked about the AAA pricing and they couldn't find it although the website said they offered it. Instead they offered what they referred to as "manager's special" which made it about $25 cheaper than AAA. Rooms were nice and clean, comfortable beds with lots of pillows. Staff was helpful and polite. Breakfast consisted of scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, toast, bagels, cereal, fruit, cinnamon rolls, muffins, ham, biscuits and gravy and beverages. Was a very nice breakfast for a complimentary meal. Would certainly recommend this hotel to friends and family.

“I was very unhappy.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2010
1
person found this review helpful

Our room was a non-smoking room on a smoking floor. Please explain to me why they do this. I asked to be moved to another room but was told the hotel was full and we couldn't be moved. My husband sleeps with a CPAP machine and the air in the room is consentrated and forced into a mask that he sleeps with. By the time we left 2 nights later he had a splitting headache. Everything we had in the room had to be washed and bags aired for 2 days. What a pain. To top it off we ended up with a handicapped room that we didn't need. Full shower setup with chair, no vanity space ( to accomodate a wheel chair), and low clothes hanger ( our clothes touched the floor). The HVAC system needs updating - very noisy. The whole hotel needs updating. It's been worn hard. Holiday Inn Express has raised their prices insanely high. They need to get real about how someplace to lay your head down is worth. This is not a resort hotel.

“Nice, Simple Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2009

My aunt, uncle, cousin and I stayed at this hotel on the way back from University of Michigan game. This hotel was great for a quick stop and had all the amenities that we needed. We weren't looking for anything much, just simple. Easy and fast check-in. Great breakfast buffet. If they we out of anything at breakfast, the staff would already be aware and get more out asap. Would recommend.
