Average chain hotel. The room seemed fairly clean. The sleeping part of the room looked to have been updated somewhat recently, but the bathroom wasn't. The bathroom had old, peeling wallpaper in it. The sink was oddly outside of the bathroom and right next to the main door to the room! I've seen bathroom sinks outside of the toilet room before, but never where the entrance closet would be. It felt really strange, as if anyone in the hallway could hear me brushing my teeth! The room was on the ground floor, so maybe it's not used as much as other rooms (it was fully booked during my stay). The front desk clerk was pretty rude at check-in, but the other staff were nice. Breakfast was underwhelming like most of these chain hotel continental breakfasts. Wouldn't be opposed to staying here again for work.

We had four rooms for 3 generations of family, 16 total. The check in staff were very helpful in getting our rooms close together. They also passed on info to late arrivals. They had the only pool opened in Mt.Vernon! It was in perfect condition and our 8 grandchildren loved it. Housekeeping was helpful in replenishing our towels without coming into the room. Breakfast was a bit better than the brown bag special with fruit, milk, cereal and drinks available. One of our party left an expensive pillow which I was able to eat the next morning with no problem. Great Holiday inn in a lovely town.

I was visiting Mount Vernon with a friend of mine from a Sunday afternoon through a Monday morning in October 2022, and we stayed at this Holiday Inn Express for the night. It's probably the nicest chain hotel in Mount Vernon.

Overall, the hotel was decent. Our room (#314) was clean and comfortable. I appreciated being able to use the business center computer in the lobby, and breakfast was okay (not great but acceptable).

There was one inconvenient problem that we had to deal with. Guests could not be given key cards to their rooms due to a problem with the electronic key system. This meant that, anytime a guest needed access to their room, a staff member needed to let them in. According to one of the hotel staff members, it was related to a computer supply-chain issue. Just strange, and something I can't say I'd ever experienced at a hotel before. One particular frustration was that, at one point when I needed access to the room on Monday morning, I had to ask one of the housekeeping staff on the 3rd floor to let me in to my room. She was asking me some odd questions about the situation, and I was getting frustrated because it was almost as if she didn't know why I needed her assistance with getting into the room. (I wasn't sure how aware she was of the situation.)

I felt bad for the staff who had to let guests into their rooms, and at one point, a potential guest was yelling rudely at one of the front desk staff members when this clearly wasn't her fault. Also, the older woman working the front desk was extremely apologetic about the situation... very nice lady. Not her fault either. They were expecting the problem to be rectified within a few days or so of my stay.

Anyway, the situation was annoying but the hotel itself is fine.

We only stayed one night. The room looked like it may have been a remodeled one. Bed was comfortable however when we entered the room it it had a very strong musty smell. After being in the room for some time we got use to it. Not sure why it was so strong.
It was very noticeable in the bathroom also. The front desk people were very friendly. We would stay there again but they may need to figure out why it has this oder
Room 120. I did like how they have the hand soap and shampoo on the walls.

Stayed one night. Room was very comfortable and clean. Staff was very nice.

On this stay, I didn’t use the exercise room. It was small, but above average for this size hotel. I didn’t use the pool, but some families seem to enjoy it.

Breakfast was standard for Holiday Inn Express and above average for hotels this size. Lots of options to choose from.

Parking lot was adequate, but small if you have a bus or towing a trailer.

Restaurant next door and a number of stores and restaurants within a 10 minute walk.

On my first night reported that room phone didn’t work, and for the entire 2-night stay no one came to fix it. While turning in for the night, pulled back bedcover to reveal brown skidmark stains on the bottom sheet. Had to pack up all my things and change rooms. Since no manager was on duty left word for her to call me the next day. When she didn’t, I called her after I’d returned home. When I told her about my stay and emailed her the skidmark photo, she said she’d “look into it.” I had expected that this report would be met with some expression of alarm, apology and urgency, but it’s been 5 days and I’ve heard nothing. Not an encouraging sign.

Excellent staff and stay. Rooms were clean and fairly spacious. Good shower water pressure - and shower head was high enough for me and my six foot-two frame. Quiet stay, and the beds were very comfortable! We stayed on the top floor. Go and enjoy!

I stay here a few times a year and i'm never disappointed. Always spotlessly clean and staff friendly. Location a bit out of the way but its nice and quiet.

I always think a hotel is a window into the locales they serve and this is no different. Friendly with a home-town vibe.

My husband and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express during a trip to ride our bicycles on the Kokosing Gap Bike Trail. It was our first experience at this hotel. When we were in our room, in our jammies, we discovered that there were problems with the room, such as the drain in the tub was really slow to drain, there was no way to keep water in the sink, the hairdryer was broken, and the worst of all was the air conditioner. When it came on, it sounded like a jet taking off...kaBOOM! There were other problems, too, so when I checked out, I mentioned them to the desk person. She was very snippy and suggested that we should have called these things to the hotel's attention when they happened and they would have tried to take care of them. I told her that we were in bed when the air conditioner problem became apparent, but she maintainted that this was their solution, and that they would not give me any money back because of this and other problems with the rooms, even though she admitted that other guests had complained about the air conditioning. She delivered this information with no compassion; rather, she was snotty, really. I did not like the way we were treated, and really, for what we paid (almost $90 for one night), it was unacceptable. She finally gave us a coupon for 25% off on our next visit, but who wants to go through that again? The Super 8, down the road, is cheaper and the staff is much nicer. They were sold out or we would have gone there anyway.
