VERY noisy…outdoor motor racing …
Road noise was horrible with VERY loud racing motor sounds until 1:00 am…I called front desk and they offered no help with this … we just toughed it out. Elevator was rough …mattress lumpy. Had to call maintenance because sink was almost completely stopped up. They did fix it …Sorry for bad review ..this place used to be great !! Not sure why Holiday Inn has let this location get in this shape.

Comfy Bed
The bed was extremely comfortable as were the pillows. The only thing that bothered me was the automatic night light in the outlet by the sink. I need total darkness when I sleep.

Beds were comfortable. Staff was friendly. The entryway smelled like urine. Toilet has stains on the seat. Sink had no drain stopper - it was missing.

We stayed for 4 nights and our room was never fully cleaned. The trash was never emptied the entire time we were there. One time, the beds were made and if we wanted new towels, we had to ask for them. The front desk people did not seem to be able to answer our questions, and in fact, one guy even told us he "doesn't really work here" (even though he was behind the front counter). I was expecting the pool to be open, which is part of the reason I booked the hotel, but the gate was locked. When we asked, no one could tell us whether the pool could be accessed or not. Also, it took 2 days for someone to come and open the safe that was locked by the customers who had our room prior to us. The one positive thing I can say is that the bed was comfortable. Overall, our visit was below average and I would not recommend staying here. Next time, for a little more money, we'll choose a higher quality hotel in the area. I hope this is helpful feedback.

This property needs a lot of work. Maintenance and cleaning is subpar. Upon check-in, I noticed the ceiling at the desk was leaking. There was a puddle of water on the floor and the ceiling looked like it was going to cave in. I was sure to alert the staff as they were not aware though it was right in front of their faces. When we walked into our room, it smelled like crap and feet. The room was stuffy and had not been cleaned properly. There was hair in the sink and toilet. The shower curtain smelled like musty mildew. The ceiling had water stains, doors and walls had some damage. The shower was not clean and there were stains on the curtains at the window. I absolutely love staying at Holiday Inn Express as they tend to be above the standard in my opinion. I’m not sure if this particular location is independently owned and operated (seemingly) but if so, the leadership here really needs to invest in proper maintenance and cleanliness of this property. We opted to check out days early to relocate to the Woodstock property (which was a stark, delightful contrast). We absolutely WILL NOT be staying at this location again. Pros: Convenient and walkable to restaurants and shopping. Right off the exit on I-75.

If you’re looking for a no frill stay this is it! Location was awesome! Building was good. This is our second stay and both times one of two elevators was down and the ice machine on my floor was down. The room was clean and beds were comfortable. Staff was pleasant!
