Fairly new facility, nice room. Very clean. Staff was very friendly. The only issue I had was that you can hear everything in these rooms. Through the door and the walls, in the hallway and neighboring rooms. Other than that we were very pleased!

Why was the breakfast bar dirty and poorly stocked ? I stayed at a Holiday Inn express last night in Michigan city Indiana and the breakfast bar was phenomenal. Hot foods, hot oatmeal, pancakes… This hotel had a dirty microwave… You had to microwave instant oatmeal… And just cold foods like yogurt and cereal. Sad

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Smelled strongly of a backed up sewer pipe throughout the lobby, elevator, and common areas which is unacceptable considering it’s on the expensive side for the area. Walls were paper thin and every time a neighboring room ran water or flushed a toilet it was very loud in the room. Hotel staff were great and extremely friendly and the room was clean.
