Detailed Reviews
Good location as it’s off the I29. Right beside a casino if you like to gamble. Staff (Cynthia) was very friendly and helpful. Clean hotel and rooms. A shuttle service is available to take you anywhere within a 5 mile radius plus the airport. Breakfast has a great variety…..biscuits and gravy, turkey bacon, folded eggs with cheese, toast, muffins, bagels, yogurt, waffles, etc. would definitely recommend and stay again.

Hotel's Favorite
Nice, quiet hotel. Room was very clean and spacious. Manager was giving out complementary snacks and a beer during check-in which was a nice surprise. Breakfast was the usual. Nothing special at all.

With COVID-19 in full swing, traveling has been tricky. The care for the staff and the customers here was nice and evident. The room was nice and everything was pleasant. I did not have any issues. It is also very close to places to eat and gamble.

Overall a good experience. I was there for a robotics competition. I was very surprised no usb outlets to charge anything. It would be nice to have a shuttle during tournaments to field house.2 miles away. Uber for four days can be expensive.

Standard Holiday Inn Express experience. Nothing bad to say - just a nice, clean room with a good, sound lock on the door. Plenty of hot water in the shower. If you stay here, eat dinner at Tish's - it's close and really good.

The bed was comfortable, location was good, right by the river. The breakfast was average. On the downside: They were painting and closed the patio out by the river, checkout time is 11:00 and before 9:30 a.m. we had a knock on the door and 30 seconds later housekeeping walked right in our room. We were less than thrilled with that.

He was to invested in my kids. He made them uncomfortable.
He gave random kids candy and balloons. He told the females they should get in the got tub. He would not leave them alone. Would not recommend this hotel if you have kids.

I want to apologize from the bottom of my heart for making your kids uncomfortable. My goal is to make people feel at home while at our hotel and I failed miserable for you and your family. I have balloons and coloring books for families as a way to entertain and serve them it is never my intent to make people feel uncomfortable. As a father of four small children I would never want to do anything other thing to bring a few smiles to those staying with us. I often ask our guest if they have used our pool and hot tub because we are looking for their feed back. I believe it is necessary to be above reproach in all we do please accept my sincere apologies for making you and your family feel the way you did. I hope that I can do something to make things up to you and your family! I would appreciate that opportunity if you are in the area again. Feel free to reach out to me by phone anytime my office number is 712.352.1300.

Although some changes have been going on at this hotel, the Staff continues to do an Amazing job. My room is always clean upon arrival, and the exterior and public areas of this hotel, are well kept. Kelly does a great job! The front desk staff treat you like family, and it is always nice to see Cindy's smiling face, or have conversation with Linda about where to eat or what to do. I was saddened to see Jo no longer here, as one could tell she really LOVED her job, but sometimes change is good. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the Omaha/Council Bluffs area.
