Hello, Thank you for the many kind words, you really hit all the hot points we love to hear about!! I am also excited to know that my staff recognized your Platinum status and were able to award an upgraded room, hopefully you also were able to take advantage of a 2 PM check out. Thanks again for your comments.... More

No trolleys available for luggage which was hard when traveling with a wheelchair guest although one girl on the front desk did offer help - she was more pleasant than the other staff members. Rooms were dated but clean. Small area for breakfast and really busy on a Sunday morning. The hotel was a little hard to find because the... More

Dear Tanya, Thank you for taking time to review us on tripadvisor. I am sorry you could not find a luggage cart when you needed. As you mentioned, it was quite busy and the two we have were in heavy demand. I am really glad to hear that we did offer to personally help you since one wasn't immediately available.... More

My wife and I came here for a weekend getaway for our anniversary. The staff was very friendly, especially the ladies working the breakfast area. We stayed in a King jacuzzi room and absolutely LOVED the room clean and very roomy. Hotel is also located within short distance to lots of restaurants and shopping (Greenwood mall) Recommend this hotel!! More

This is the least expensive Holiday Inn Express in Indianapolis and the reason is probably that the south side of town is the least developed part of Indy. No problem if you're just passing through (as I was). The area is not unsafe, just rural. Rooms were clean and everything worked, etc. My only "problem" was trying to follow the... More

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to post a review, unfortunately the comment about having 2 king beds per room is in error. The hotel with that feature is Holiday Inn Express Southeast. Again, thank you for choosing Holiday Inn Express brand, where all of our hotels strive to create great hotels guests love. More

There was a problem with the reservation (twice), a problem with the room we were assigned that had been changed the afternoon of the day we arrived, the beds are too small and the general manager caused the room problem and didn't stick around to deal with it. We (4 women) had a reservation for a king bed with queen... More

Meeskey, Thank you for taking the time to review us. I am very sorry you had the issues that you did, it can be quite difficult to accommodate everyone exactly on a weekend that was so busy and full.
