I stayed here on business and loved it. The staff were friendly and very accommodating. They went out of their way to make sure the stay was great. The rooms were clean with free wifi. Probably the nicest hotel in town.

I have been staying here fairly regularly since HI opened in Portales - and was originally thrilled that there was finally a decent place to stay when the B&B I normally stay in was full. However, I have noticed over the past couple of years, the quality of accomodations has been going down hill - and it really is the... More

Everyone who works here is very nice and friendly; they were very accommodating. The housekeeping staff can be loud in the halls, especially on the first floor. The biggest downside to this hotel is the fact that it is right across the street from the RR track!

Haved stayed here twice and the staff has always been great! I'm a very light sleeper and, upon request, was moved to a room in the back away from the train tracks across the street in the front. Rooms are comfortable, clean and bathrooms have decent amenities. There are newspapers available, not just digital versions. The front desk had ice... More

Stayed three nights on business. Rooms were very clean and comfortable and the staff was very gracious. Over all a very satisfactory stay. Will definitely stay here again on my next trip to the area. Breakfast was very good and staff changed selections daily. Compaired to other simular hotels the breakfast selection was a big plus.

The staff was wonderful. Britley checked us in, Debbie and Xavier helped with the extension of my stay. They were very busy Saturday due to ENMU graduation, and unfortunately only had one person taking care of the breakfast bar, but despite dealing with cranky people eatting a lot, she was very friendly and tried very hard to keep up (I...

We stayed here two nights in Aug 2012 while getting our son in ENMU. The cost per night was not worth it. They raise prices when activities are happening in town. The room was clean. Doors to enter via back/side of hotel were not working properly so we had to use main entrance to get back in hotel. Hot tub... More

In town for a wedding....there is not much in Portales and certainly a limited number of motels. this Holiday Inn Express served our purposes and was better than I anticipated by a long shot. Staff was great, friendly and helful. Room very standard but clean. Would stay here again....but never plan on being on Portales again!

This is the typical Holiday Inn Express, meaning they all look the same. I will say that it is clean and was quiet. The front desk personel is nice and listened.

I have stayed at this hotel many times the past 3 years, as my child is a student at ENMU. The price has increased by over $50 a night since and the hotel continues to decline. This will be our last time to stay here. The hotel next door just completed renovations and charge $60 less per night.
