Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Auburn by IHG

The property is clean and well maintained.

On the surface the location looks to be a good one. In reality the property is extremely noisy. It is sandwiched between Water Street and I 290 so there is constant traffic much of it heavy truck traffic so if you are a light sleeper this is not the hotel for you. I have not been able to get a decent nights sleep since I arrived and I use ear plugs!

Friendly receptionist

I was going to reduce the review by one star due to the excessive road noise originating from the nearby interstate. Ask to stay on the opposite side of the building. I’ll admit I read this same advice on the reviews below but we had spent the day on the road and just forgot. Anyway, it’s true. It did NOT keep us up at night but it’s a constant drone when you’re conscious. Outside of that, this is a very good hotel. Older but well maintained and very clean. Friendly staff. THE GOOD: *Clean *Hair Dryer *Micro *Fridge *In room coffee maker *Iron and board *A 30” TV with an assortment of channels including 5 Cinemax. GENERAL: *Typical breakfast with sausage, scrambled eggs plus other items. Very good as these things go. *The luggage carts work like new. *Building has fire sprinklers. *Great price.

Ample parking

That there is no pool and nothing for kids to do there.
