The property didn’t look like a Holiday Inn Express from The outside, once you walked inside the lobby was clean, but everything about this property just said OLD and VERY DATED! Then when you got to your room, the carpet was old, the tile on the floor was a discolored white, and the refrigerator wasn’t cleaned out

Yes and no…
Great location if visiting Germantown or other downtown activities. While room was clean and bed comfortable the bathroom had a hard to turn on sink faucet and the toilet paper holder was on a swivel and when used the roll went flying! It needed to be secured better! Tv remote was a challenge to learn to use. Large spacious room During the early morning while a do not disturb hung on our door some kids ran the hall pounding on our door and took off No one else complained about it scared me for sure! We could walk to all the places we wanted to visit. That was nice
