I’m very disappointed that Expedia charged me $187 USD for this hotel. Expedia took advantage of Family Weekend at TSU and raised the prices for this 2-stars hotel. It didn’t worth the price.

Convenient location for someone travelling through and getting to know the area. The visitor information centre is very close by and that was very helpful and I enjoyed this area right off the main highway. The hotel was quiet and comfortable and exactly what I was looking for.

Good location. No stairs to 2nd floor. AC only worked intermittently (Aug) so was warm, and when on it was very loud.

The room was so damp that all my clothes came home wet and smelled of mildew. I had to wash the inside of my suitcase as well. The carpet in front of the A/C was wet. My sink was completely stopped up. I stayed post-Beryl and understand this plight but I’m not sure the hotel was ready and I question whether or not it was healthy for the the dozens of teachers that stayed there (for a math conference) and had similar or worse experiences. I’m so sorry for the city and its residents. The Holiday Inn express employees were so kind and helpful and did the best they could but it really was an abysmal stay. :(

Room felt damp and smelled musky. Turns out the window unit is leaking and the floor was wet. Very noisy - no sound proofing - could even hear people walking around on the floor above
