I am a very forgivable person and one that acknowledges that there can be issues but how those issues are resolved is what's important. So this hotel is clean and fresh concerning the lobby, breakfast and pool as well as the grounds. However, the rooms are clean but questionable. Our first room had a used and unclean toilet but the rest of the room looked clean. We shifted rooms to find a clean toilet but toe nails (multiple) and trash on the floor. After a look around the room was clean but the floor wasn't vacuumed or swept. So, the room was not consistent. However the beds were clean and good to go. So myself and 2 kids went to bed only to find out the heater would not turn off. So it was hot but better than nothing. So overall, I would stay again but in terms of IHG they were not up to par for this Holiday Inn Express. They are usually on point. I will say the staff was kind and sweet. I feel that they are very capable of being amazing. They just need to dial in on housekeeping.

This should be the GOLD STANDARD for Holiday Inn Express. It always more than pleases. Breakfast.....superb! If you need to be in Harrisonburg dont bypass a stay. Even the sheets are top quality and a pillow is a PILLOW! NUMBER 1 in our book but this morning catastrophe at breakfast bar. Again pancake machine broken. It was broken three weeks ago too. Lady tending breakfast bar has extremely long hair. Should be up and you dont fix and empty a broken toaster by turning it upside down dorcing crumbs obto the coubter. There is a backroom for that

The only reason for 4 and not 5 stars on the room is it was surprisingly easy to hear the guests in the room above us moving around, walking, and could hear housekeeping vacuuming. Surprising because this is a newly constructed hotel so I would expect better sound proofing.
