Callahan County Vacations & Trips from $529

Really great stay on a budget but the whole stay the toilet was leaking so when ever I woke up the floor was soaked and I had to use the towel to clean it up.

Overall my stay was good, breakfast and staff were good. My room could have used a better cleaning of the small details. But overall my stay was good.

While the room was reasonably clean my biggest complaint was the shower. It was the puniest shower I have ever seen in a Holiday Inn. Very weak. I long for the good old days when you had access to a little bar of soap, a little bottle of shampoo and conditioner. I hit my head twice on the bracket holding the the bottles of shampoo, etc. For the second day I purchased a bar of soap at Wal-Mart and felt like I was truly clean. How far have the brakfasts fallen at Holiday Inn Express? I used to stop at a HIE for the breakfasts. That is no longer a game changer. Abilene, TX is not Manhatten, NY. How HIE justifies over $300 a night in Abilene, TX is beyond me. Rooms are cheaper in Austin and Dallas. It is unlikely I will be staying at the HIE in Abilene in the future, or any other HIE that charge such exhorbitant rates. When I asked for a business area to print out my boarding passes I discovered none was available at this location. I thought this was generally standard at hotels of this level. The most inferior experience I can remember at a HIE.
