Holiday Inn Express Kearney

Had a brief stop here on our way to Denver. Great hotel! Clean rooms with comfortable beds and pillows. Easy and quick check in and check out. Great breakfast!

Nice and clean had a great breakfast, we enjoyed the pool and the hot tub as we where doing the laundry… very friendly staff

Don’t eat the breakfast! My husband & I got sick to our stomachs. The eggs were slimy and cold. Even the hard boiled eggs were terrible. How do you mess up a hard boiled egg??? The coffee was horrendous. There were no healthy options except bananas, apples, and oranges, and the apples & bananas were bruised and overripe. It was loud & we didn’t sleep well. Sounded like someone was playing basketball in the room upstairs at all hours of the night. The room smelled funny too. Shocking for a holiday inn, and for the price we paid for the room. Never again…

great place. very comfy and my room was clean and perfect. staff was incredible. and there are elevators. loved the manager’s evening reception with beer, wine, and snacks. breakfast is good too.

I stayed there with my family for two nights and found that this is one of the best hotels that I’ve stayed-​in. Loved the modern décor. The facilities were very clean and staff was great as well. The breakfast was average but everything else was superb.

Having stayed twice, I wouldn’t do a third. For every plus, there’s a huge minus.
Examples:
1. Staff are awesome, prices are not.
2. Beds are very comfortable, but the walls are extremely thin.
We were exhausted and forgot to stop for dinner beforehand, and the girl at the front desk overheard us talking about it while checking in. She offered to take us to the breakfast room to grab some grub — Now, that was really sweet! The price, however, was $ 50 higher than it had showed online a few hours earlier. For middle-​of-​nowhere America, ouch!
The beds have pillows with «soft”/“firm» designations embroidered on the cases, so it’s nice that you can «build-​a-​bed» to your heart’s desires. The negative came with the walls. We were in a connecting room where there was a door on the other end that opened to a neighboring room. All of a sudden, the guy in that room (we thought it was empty) got on the phone, and we could hear his conversation word for word. After that, we kept quiet; if we can hear him, he can hear us. To make matters worse, the door didn’t even seem secure, and we couldn’t lock it properly. That creeped us out enough to never stay there again.
I hate to give this rating because the staff really are wonderful — everyone we encountered was friendly, smiley, and helpful at all sorts of odd hours — but we sleep in the hotel rooms, and they’re just not the greatest.

This establishment must be paying off State inspectors, as they have a building where the second floor has no elevators! So how would a handicapped person get up and down the stairs? The handicapped door open device doesn’t even work.
So with no elevator I had to carry 4 bags up and then down the stairs upon our departure. Being somewhat older, my back objected several days later by locking up causing me to miss work (and the weekend). Days of agony later I post this to warn you away from this hotel.

They should have told me at time of booking they were under major renovation. As a Priority member, I was treated as a nuisance. My room was beautifully updated but was heavy with dry wall dust.

Sometimes when you have been on the road for days, all you need is a nice clean room with the basics. This hotel certainly met the bill. Ample parking for our SUV and trailer, basic amenities, a fridge in the room, and a free continental breakfast. They have guest laundry and a gym. Right next to Skeeter Barnes restaurant, which seemed the lap of luxury to me at the time. A good, if not luxurious, place to stay.

Good. Not fancy, but very comfortable. Right next to skeeter barnes, gas station with ample supplies, and very short walk to another steakhouse. Free wifi in our room, nice flatscreens, decent shampoo and shower stuff. There is laundry we forgot to use, pool, cardio stuff. Your room has a fridge for leftovers and bee… um, soda. It also has a microwave to heat up last nights ribs for breakfast.
The free breakfast was very adequate and in a very homey, comfortable room. Coffee was weak, but several other things to drink.
The staff is VERY friendly. Traveling cross country, we have seen rude, and we have seen nice. These folks were great. At breakfast I did not know where to put my tray, so I stepped into the kitchen. The lady thanked me and apologized, as if my confusion was her fault.
Another example: as we were set to leave, we noticed a book/​game shelf. You csn take these up to your room! Who does this anymore? Anyway, my fiancée noted there was no Scrabble. A staffmember said she thought there was, looked, and again apologized to us for not having it. I almost felt that had we pressed it, the woman would have run to a store and bought us our very own scrabble game.
It is a very comfortable inn with all modern necessities for the «modern» travelers and a staff who really seems to care about the guests and the place. Strongly recommend.
