Good clean room. V ery friendly staff during check-in, and especially the morning breakfast staff. I woke up early, as I always do :( and the young man got a great cup of coffee and a roll before the breakfast opened. Very impressed with the costumer service in an age where you do not always see it. More

What was that noise? That was the air conditioner turning on and off all night making it impossible to sleep and therefore we left a day earlier. I will say that the front desk folks on arrival and departure were wonderful and most helpful. More

Wow what a great trip. We were at the hotel for the Oklahoma State Iowa State football game and we had a blast. That was probably one of the best games I have ever been to. I guess the game was the highlight of my trip but the hotel was good too. At checkin a tall guy I think he... More

I always travel with Holiday Inn Express when I can and this hotel is the reason why. I can expect everything to be the way I need it. From being greeted as a platinum member and being upgraded to a suite and waking up to a variety of healthy eating options. I always choose to stay at a Holiday Inn... More

We stay at Holiday Inn Express locations frequently. We generally get the suite for the extra room for our family. At this location, the suite was smaller than in other locations we have been at. Usually the suites have the sofa sleeper with a separate TV in a separate room with a door. This one had the sofa sleeper right... More

My son moved into ISU and we stayed here the night before. For some reason they have the Cardinals on Fox Sports instead of the Twins. The breakfast wasn't as varied as I've had at other Express locations and the internet connection had some reliability issues. The location is close to the interstate and convenient to campus. Fine place for... More
