This was an overnight stop on a long trip. We arrived on Sunday, early evening and most of the local restaurants (we found an open one) and local shops were closed. The Inn had an issue with TV service (I understand cable was out for most of the day and also in the morning). The Inn was clean and quiet. Breakfast was on par with other places we have stayed at. For the price, great place to stay and rest.

The room was clean….simple….and had a pretty view from our room on the 4th floor of the woods behind the hotel. This is a no-frills hotel, however, the breakfast was good, the breakfast worker had a great personality, and the front desk was helpful directing us to a good Mexican restaurant. Only negative was the walls were thin and I could actually hear the man next door using the restroom.

Our stay at Lexington, VA Holiday Inn Express was very nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was spacious and immaculately clean, the outdoor patio was very nice and inviting. The breakfast offered several options and was all fresh and tasty. The only recommendation I have is to put up a sign off the main road as the entrance is set back. Other than that, it was an exceptional experience.

The hotel was clean and updated. The room itself was also very clean. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was well stocked and had many options. The parking area was clean and safe. We had a room that faced the back, and it was very quiet and peaceful. I would definitely stay here again.

Wow! Parking and check in were a breeze. The staff is super friendly. There are EV charging stations in the back of the parking lot which was convenient. The building is new and clean and well maintained. Beds were super comfy, room temp was perfect. I love that there are hard floors in the rooms and nothing smells musty or damp or smoky like some other places I’ve stayed. It was super clean and comfortable. The hotel was quiet and I love that I didn’t smell any weed anywhere on the premises (that can be rare these days). The bathrooms are so nice with quality shampoo, conditioner, and soap. The coffee was good and I’m picky about coffee. My only small criticism is about the breakfast. The sausage patties were kind of cold and rubbery and the eggs were cold and more like egg powder crumbs, obviously fake eggs that someone didn’t know how to prepare well. There were bagels and cereal which were fine, and also a pancake maker which we didn’t try. The oatmeal was good. But overall breakfast was a disappointment compared with the quality of the hotel and the rest of the stay. We would stay again because the most important things to me are cleanliness, comfort, air quality, and service and all of those were 10/10. I also liked that there were people enjoying the main lobby area in the evening, playing pool and other games and there were nice individual study/work areas as well. I would just say to consider improving the hot food items at breakfast!
