Good facilities and service
The facilities and customer service at this hotel attract positive feedback from guests. The selection of facilities cater well to all types of traveler and, like the in-room amenities, are well looked after.

positive:
Value for money
Many guests are impressed by the value for money offered at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Lubbock West. The rates seem set to attract guests who aren't necessarily looking for a budget property but do wish to enjoy bang for their buck and a good choice of freebies thrown in.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Tricky to access hotel
A number of reviews suggest that the hotel is tricky to access (one guest described it as nothing short of tortuous). As of late 2015, construction work taking place around the parking lot is exacerbating the problem.
negative:
Off the beaten track
It's fair to say that a car is needed at this hotel. Although it's adjacent to the highway, there is little of anything in the area surrounding the property and certainly nothing much with walking distance.
negative:
Missing finishing touches
While the friendly service, attractive rates, and good quality rooms all appeal to guests, there are some comments that suggest this hotel lacks the finishing touches associated with premium hotels. Reported issues are minor (such as missing bulbs and insufficient tea and coffee left in rooms), but suggest that more attention to detail is needed.
