We previously stayed in Columbia SC Holiday Inn Express. We expected much better accommodations based on our previous experience. When I called about where to plug in our coffee maker they said that we would have to move it since there was no available electricity to it. There were no linens for the sofa sleeper. Only one ice machine for 3 floors. Pool was green and dirty...... sauna and steam room locked and unavailable. Stains on the dust ruffles on the beds......nastiness on the handicap bars in the bathroom. Don't waste your money on these accommodations......RUN to the nearest available!

This hotel was a little older than some but very clean. Breakfast buffet was great and varied daily. The staff was very friendly and personable shopping and recreation was nearby. Airconditioning was refreshing and cooled the room adequately which during this heat is remarkable! We didn't use the pool but saw staff cleaning it daily. A very comfortable stay

Second year in a row they screwed up our family reservations even after constantly confirming the late arrivals with the front desk. We have always found HIExpress great when we travel but not in Lexington. While most of the staff is polite, the others (night auditor) need to be fired. Don't think training will help people like that. A $20 discount and a comp room did help but it didn't help the fact that the visiting families went thru Hades getting checked in at 2 am into a smokey, grimy room. Next year.. any place but here ...At least the AC worked in the rooms this year.

The staff here is uncommonly nice and helpful, but I don't think I will return to this property because my standard for an average hotel includes being clean. The bathroom looked clean, but when I turned down the bed, the sheets looked slept in and there was something spilled on it -- maybe coffee with cream? Dust around the base of wall is thick in places, piece of blue plastic trash from previous guest next to the other bed - the one that does not have the look of being previously used. Room fridge shelves have cracks in plastic sheathing and thick coat of ice in freezer unit with no door closing it from the rest of unit. Carpets in room has stains. Gold color not the best for hiding stains. Hall carpets are dirty and worn through in places. Elevator wall covering ripped and elevator carpet is filthy.
