big rooms, nice selection of breakfast items in a large, comfortable room, and friendly, helpful staff. Unless you like Applebees and Burger King, you'll need a car to get anywhere, though. More

The rooms are clean and updated. Bathrooms are well appointed and VERY clean. Staff is very pleasant and accomadating. Breakfast area was clean and comfortable(staff working the breakfast area was very helpful and constantly making sure that the area was well stocked). Located close to restarants and shopping malls. Close to many attractions. Well lite parking. Well worth the cost!! More

I am a frequent traveler and the Holiday Inn Express chain has been one of the brands I have stayed in around the country. This one is sub-par. The quality is all pretty low. While the room is OK and clean, the towels are very thin and rough. The toilet paper is all one-ply, which for the price of this... More

Spent two nights at the Holiday Inn Express for a Spartan Football game. It’s just a few miles from campus, a quick couple of minutes down the expressway. It’s on West road which is a little tricky to find. When you exit the expressway the GPS didn’t have a chance to warn you about the next turn. The hotel location... More

Pros: Double room was large and appeared clean. Beds were comfortable with nice selection of pillows. Very safe location with a lot of shopping and restaurants nearby. Free internet. Hot breakfast. Cons: My room smelled! I can't pinpoint the smell but it was unpleasant. The staff were functional but weren't overly helpful. The pool was FREEZING cold. Also there were... More

The continental breakfast was well laid out and even offered fresh pancakes. Several nice restaurants and good shopping nearby. However, I do feel it was overpriced ($165/night) for a place that was nice but nothing fancy. More

As others have posted, the hotel is difficult to find the first time. However, the room (suite size) was large, clean, and comfortable. The bed was very nice. Breakfast was good, and staff was friendly. A nice place to stay. However, they raised the price of the room by $100 that night because of a big MSU game. Also because... More

Booked a room here after discovering there was no vacancy at the nearby Hampton Inn - and because we wanted to be close to the MSU campus. I was pleasantly surprised - this is probably the nicest HI Express I've stayed in. The staff was very friendly - only down side was that the elevator was out of commission the... More

If you have some flexibility in where you stay in the E.L. area, you can save some money by checking around. Our AARP rate for Sunday night was $113, which is higher than what I have been paying, but I hadn't checked around much. When I mentioned we would need a room for the following Tuesday night, I was told... More
