Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Urbana-Champaign-U of I Area by IHG

Breakfast and location was great

This was our 2nd stay at this hotel. I left a more detailed review after our first stay but once again, our room was very clean and comfortable and the breakfast was very good. The only issue this time was with the room type. We booked through Booking.com and selected a room with 2 queen beds as we were traveling with 2 adults and 2 children. However, when we arrived we were given a room with 1 king bed and a sofa bed. The sofa bed was not prepared so we had to set it up ourselves. The front desk staff explained that when a reservation is made through Booking.com, they do not see the specific room details being requested. If the exact room type is important to you, I would recommend calling the hotel in advance to confirm it. Fortunately, our room did have a sofa bed so we were able to accommodate all four of us. However, if we had been given a room with only a king bed, it would not have worked for our family. Since we arrived late, there were no other rooms available. One nice feature of this particular room was the accessible shower with a handheld showerhead. It was actually very convenient when traveling with children. Overall, we were happy with our stay again and would consider staying here again.

Not a complaint, just a tip: If you book through Booking.com, I recommend double-checking the room type directly with the hotel in advance, especially if having a specific bed configuration is important to you.

We stayed at this hotel for the first time and were very happy with our stay. Before arriving, I had read 1 review mentioning bed bugs so I was a little anxious about it. However, our room was in perfect condition and everything was very CLEAN. The room was COMFORTABLE, the beds were great and the bathroom was also very clean. I especially appreciated the Dove products provided in the bathroom, that was a nice little touch for me :) Everything we needed was there. I also loved the BLACKOUT CURTAINS. We arrived late at night , and they allowed our children to sleep well in the morning which was especially appreciated. The area was also very quiet and peaceful. The BREAKFAST was very good and had a great variety of options, including scrambled eggs, egg whites & veggies chef’s omelet, sausage, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, cinnamon rolls, cereal, yogurt, juice, oatmeal and fruit such as oranges and bananas. We were very happy with our stay. The location was also very convenient for traveling as it w as close to the interstate. There is also a large PARKING lot with plenty of space, even for larger vehicles, trailers, and RVs which was very convenient for us. It was a great and comfortable stop for 1 night, and we would be happy to stay here again.
