I got there after a pretty heavy thunderstorm and they had lost power. The woman who checked me in using her own cell phone's flashlight, was excellent! She even helped me carry my bags to my room on the 2nd floor. The room was large & clean. My only complaint is I could hear the guests on the 3rd floor walking and I was next to a housekeeping closet and could hear them. I'd stay again.

We had a fantastic 4-night stay at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Elyria by IHG! It was a perfect home base for our family to attend Oberlin College commencement festivities. All the staff, from the front desk, to the kitchen/breakfast room, and housekeeping, provided friendly, HELPFUL service. The housekeeping staff in particular made sure they serviced our room when requested and provided us with fresh towels daily. In addition to ensuring the cleanliness of our room, housekeeping also did a great job keeping public spaces spotless! The breakfast at this property was also pretty darn good-- great choices of traditional (eggs, bacon, etc) and healthier fare (oatmeal, egg white omelet, etc). Our favorite were the flapjacks that were cooked in an impressive tabletop machine! All in all, we were thoroughly satisfied with our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone needing accommodations in the area!
