Very nice Holiday Inn Express. Our third time there and will go back. Close to Texas Tech University and loads of dining options and sports bars, etc., including watching Texas Tech events which are year round. Clean rooms, nice staff and breakfasts typical of most chains. Parking is ample. Getting to the hotel is not as easy as many others we stay at but the location and highway/road setup near the University are the culprits there, not the hotel.

This property was so nice. They were in the middle of switching out/remodeling the wall paper in the entry/lobby so that is the only reason it was downgraded just a tad. The rooms were very clean, nice and updated. Would stay there again

Overall a very nice and well kept hotel. The staff was very friendly and the amenities were nice. My only complaint, although minor, is that the beds sat on a wooden base which creaked pretty loudly whenever you slightly move. We will be back in Lubbock and will likely stay there again.
