Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lincoln Airport by IHG
Mold on our shower curtain which was soaking wet and a leak in the ceiling above the shower as well. Did receive a discount but couldn't use the shower at all. Only stayed 1 night as it was late and had no other rooms open.

Americas Best Value Inn Lincoln Airport
The hotel has its own bar and restaurant, but breakfast was very basic (scones, eggs and stew) and simply laid out on a table, with only coffee available. My children had nothing to drink. It was therefore below our expectations.
