I was surprised to have no housekeeping at all for a five day stay. I understand not doing a full clean every day, but I expected my bed would be made and trash dumped at least once during my stay. I was also surprised at how tall the bed was. I am short, and it was hard to climb into bed! Otherwise, everything was nice and the staff was friendly.

Solid hotel
This was a good no frills stay. The place was clean and quiet. The beds were comfortable. We had a minor issue with the coffee maker in the room and the staff fixed it right away.

Overall, we had a good experience, however it took the front desk staff about 15 minutes to come to the desk at check in, and the first room that they gave us keys for was still dirty from the previous guest, and we had to take all of our things back to the lobby to be assigned another room.

Great Hotel
We have stayed here many times because it's so close to JD Legends for concerts. It's literally 3 minutes away. This hotel is very nice, always clean, the breakfast is amazing with lots of choices, and the inside pool is nice too. I would highly recommend staying here. There is also a McDonald's beside it and a Mexican restaurant across the street.

Enjoyed our stay in Ohio
As always,we enjoyed our stay at Holiday Inn Express. Staff, Room, and Breakfast were all great. One suggestion for improvement. Staff was mopping just outside the elevators during peak time of people going to breakfast and leaving the hotel. I believe this is asking for a slip and fall. No spills needing to be cleaned up, just routine daily cleaning.

Needs an update
I was disappointed, the hotel in general was good but the rooms are a little worn and outdated. Carpeting was frayed at the edges and the tub retained a puddle of water after the water was turned off like the bottom was dented. Ive stayed at many Holiday inn express & suites and this was in the worst condition.

Staff and Owner tried to state that they had canceled our rooms (4) just before we arrived. We booked the rooms through expedia and the hotel staff stated that the credit card used to pay for the rooms had been denied. Expedia sent them the money 8 days before we arrived and the money had been taken off my credit card as well. The hotel was trying to get us to book subpar rooms for a higher rate due to the Taylor Swift concert in town. Then they were going to try and keep the original money that we had paid. They had stated that the owner had just left to go out of town and they couldn't do anything. We waited two hours to get a manager to come back and he didn't say a word. He knew he was caught and just walked to the computer and gave us our original rooms that they stated they didn't have anymore. Just a big scam owner and staff. THE WORST STAY THAT I HAVE EVER HAD WITH A HOTEL.

When we arrived, the hotel told us they had cancelled our reservation. They said that Expedia failed to pay them. They offered different rooms at a considerably higher price more a night per room (we had 4). Through the whole process, we learned that Taylor Swift was in town and that’s why they were charging more. I got on the phone with Expedia and after almost 2 hours, we had our original rooms at the original prices. Utterly ridiculous. They also claimed that it was our problem and they didn’t have to contact Expedia…which Expedia denies (and it makes sense).

Meh, not an 8.
I don’t agree with ratings if it being an 8. Was kinda grubby and the shower barely spat water out. There was no shower curtain but was remedied quickly when we asked. Breakfast the next day was gone (completely except for bread) at 9:30a when we went to get it. We ate elsewhere. I would stay here again for convenience to freeway but would have to be a lower rate.
