Holiday Inn Express & Suites Picayune-Stennis Space Cntr.

0 stars! You so do NOT want to do business with this place. Trust me ;). The owner is rude and tries to cheat you out of your money. They charge you if you don’t show up, call for late check in, are not out of the room or even if they have to move your check out time. Meeting room can hold about 20 people comfortably but not really a rice room at all. Breakfast is really bad. You can tell it is all that pre-​packaged-​not-​fully-​cooked garbage!!! I would recommend the Waffle House across the street for sure. They also sell over priced snack in the lobby complete with old candy and stale cake. Internet service never worked.
Don’t even think about booking anything here either. I wad told The «sales manager» takes lunch breaks that I think were 3 hrs long. And you can’t get front desk to block rooms for you! How ridiculous?! In the end I got charged for all kinds of stupid unknown charges also. Please do not go here. Try the other hotel across the road if you have to. I know I will.

Room 217 had BED BUGS!!! Be very cautious if staying here. The room smelled of insect spray as if they knew they had a problem but didn’t warn us of the issue. When we notified them of the situation they pretended to not know what bed bugs even were!!!

This hotel does not even deserve a star. The owner/​manager denied having a cockroach issue after we showed him a picture and informed about the cockroach we found in our bathroom and refused to give us any money back. He clearly knew he had an issue and didn’t offer an assistance. DO NOT STAY HERE

Nice accommodations, but I couldn’t use the Internet and the front desk was no help whatsoever.

This comment is over the poor service my wedding guests and wedding party members received from the Holiday Inn staff. First of all, it was extremely difficult to even block rooms. The sales manager could not be reached by phone. I left several messages, as did my wedding coordinator. She never returned a call but finally emailed me after about 2 weeks of trying to get in touch with her. I was able to reserve 20 rooms but she never sent me any official documentation even though I asked. Then, she emailed me one day and said that our guests did not reserve enough rooms by a certain time, so we would not get the discount. I informed her that she never gave me a cut-​off date, so she extended it by a week. Finally, as the date drew near, guests were having difficulty reserving a room because the sales manager changed the number of rooms from 20 to 15. Thus, not all of our guests were able to stay in the same hotel. To top all of this off, rooms were not ready by 3 (check-​in time!); thus ruining our rehearsal dinner. Some of the wedding party, guests, and the PREACHER were late to the rehearsal because they were waiting for rooms. This pushed back our dinner, which ended with us eating cold food. Also, they lost the preacher’s reservation, which we paid for. Therefore, the preacher had to put the room on his card just to check-​in. How embarrassing! Overall, my guests reported that hotel staff were rude and inconsiderate and did not apologize for the delays. The manager simply said «We were full last night, rooms aren’t ready.» What an incredibly horrible experience. I wish we and our guests had not wasted money on such poor service. We chose this hotel because it was the nicest in Picayune but if we would have had a choice of better hotels we definitely would have changed after the initial difficulty of contacting the sales manager. I wish we could have avoided this whole disappointment by sending guests to a another hotel. Unfortunately, this hotel was the most convenient for the wedding location. However, it added so much extra stress to me on my wedding day. What a huge disappointment. I should also mention that I tried several times to call the 1 – 800 number when attempting to reserve rooms (when I could not reach the local sales manager) and I was never able to speak to someone. Holiday Inn Express really does not care about their guests.

stayed overnight before heading to New Orleans. Everything was fine. Very nice hotel with very nice people working.
