For $200 a night I don't expect perfection, but at the very least expect a clean room and a hotel that is in decent condition. The hotel itself is a little more beat up than other Holiday Inn Express sites I have stayed in. The manager was friendly and accommodating so absolutely no issues there. My main issue was the cleanliness of the room. Upon entry, room 111 was musty/stuffy and felt damp. The bed was clean but there were ants in the room that eventually made their way to the bed the next morning. There were greasy fingerprints on just about every hard surface, so it was clear the room had not been properly cleaned. The bathroom was also dirty, shower floor was nasty and there was hair on the shower wall and on the shampoo bottles (not ours..we hadn't used it yet). The breakfast was decent with a fair amount of options and the coffee was good. The room doors slam HARD and fast which did wake us up a couple times. There is no reason for a room door to slam that hard. Overall I would not recommend this hotel if you value a clean room and a good night's sleep. There are plenty of better options in the area.
