The hotel was conveniently located to Marist College, my destination. The staff at the front desk was personable upon arrival but extremely obnoxious when I call to change my room to non-smoking room which I had requested. I was not guaranteed my request and they did not honor it.
Positives: Location to my destination.
Negatives: Told I had to accept a smoking room even though I requested non-smoking room.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 12 Nov 2008 rated 8 out of 10.
The hotel was in great proximity to the Culinary Institute of America & also to the train station. The continental breakfast is great as always and what a variety they offer. The bed pillows were too fluffy and caused for a stiff neck. But I like the Holiday Inn Express and look to stay at them whenever possible.
Positives: They have a great continental breakfast that other hotels cannot beat!
Negatives: The main lobby bathroom was unclean & the fitness facility could have had an elliptical.
Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 24 Aug 2008 rated 10 out of 10.
This hotel is conveniently located just North of the commercial center of Poughkeepsie and just South of Hyde Park. The room was clean, spacious and quiet. The staff was helpful and friendly. The complimentary breakfast provided a nice selection of both hot and cold menu items.

Excellent location, if you have a car-convenient to rail station, if you have a car.
Positives: Courteous-clean-good breakfast-.
Negatives: Getting to the hotel from the train station, at 10:50 pm was a nightmare-1 hr 40 min to get a taxi.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 29 Apr 2008 rated 3 out of 10.
The room was a frustrating experience. The worst thing was the noisy air conditioner, which vibrated loudly every time it switched on. Also, my two hard, thick pillows were in pillow cases that said soft. My husband's (I discovered the next morning) were really the soft ones. I did not sleep well at all. There were no glasses or cups, only Styrofoam.
Positives: Convenient location, good continental breakfast.
Negatives: Couldn't sleep, thanks to noisy air conditioner.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 21 Mar 2007 rated 7 out of 10.
Overall it was a pleasant stay. As a biz traveler it had all the amenities I needed. The iron in the room helped! The shuttle service was excellent, friendly drivers. Generally service at the desk was efficient. The breakfast hot food could have more variety since I was faced with cheese omelet and bacon/sausage each of the 7 days I was there. I also found switching off the lights in the room when in bed to be a pain. A bedside control panel would have been nice.
Positives: The shuttle service was great! Drivers were very accommodating and friendly.
Negatives: I also didn¿t like that it was hard to turn off the lights and TV when I left the room since there was no one switch that did it, at the door.
Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 16 Jan 2007 rated 10 out of 10.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 31 Jul 2006 rated 10 out of 10.
A very nice find and a true business class hotel. Spotlessly clean rooms. A paper at your door every morning. Wireless Internet access and a complimentary continental breakfast (with omelets and breakfast meats) served in a pleasant dining area. Nice pool and small but functional workout area. I think most business travelers will be very pleased with this property.
Positives: Clean, fine staff, complimentary continental breakfast.
Negatives: Wireless Internet was a bit slow, but suited my needs.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 23 Nov 2005 rated 8 out of 10.
For a 2 star hotel, this is a bargain. The hotel is clean and reasonably priced, secure, and the staff is personable and helpful. In the lounge there is a computer with internet to do a quick check on e-mail or quick internet search (free!). Satisfying continental breakfast. Our daughter will be attending school close to this hotel. We will be sure to check this hotel first when booking our next stay.
Positives: Staff was friendly, informative, and responsive.
Negatives: Renovation work being done during day - loud construction noise.
