"If you are in need of a hotel in the Moundsville area, you need to stay at the Holiday Inn Express Suites! It is probably the cleanest and best-appointed hotel in this price point. My husband and I are frequent Marriott guests, but our stay here has changed our minds. Emily was working the reception desk upon our check-in and she could not have been friendlier! She ensured our check-in went smoothly, and even called the room a few minutes after to make sure everything was to our standards, which it was. She gave us dinner recommendations and information about what to see in the area, all with a smile and warm professionalism.
Our room was spacious and immaculate, with a comfortable king sized bed and a zero-entry shower. One of the touches we especially liked was the black-out shades covering the windows.
We took full advantage of the hotel pool and hot tub, which were conveniently open 24 hours a day. The area was clean and towels were readily available.
Breakfast service, which was included with our stay, started at 4am daily, and featured plenty of choices, including fresh fruit.
At checkout, I spoke with Molly, the hotel manager and paid her our compliments. She was so nice and also pleased to hear we enjoyed our stay.
If we are in the area in the future, we will definitely return to this hotel. We wouldn't even want to stay anywhere else!"
"We were just at the hotel for the overnight as we were traveling home. The thing that stood out to me were the friendly people working the front desk. Hassan and Steve were there when we checked in and I’m embarrassed to say I don’t remember the name of the Very nice man this morning who checked us out. "
