Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I really like how the hotel has shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in bottles already in the shower. Ditto for hand soap and lotion. It makes more sense than having small bottles provided. My reservation was also under my father's name so that we could use points. I was afraid that would be a problem, but it was seamless. The only criticism I would have is that the hot tub wasn't working at the time. This seems to be a constant in many hotels where I stay, but it would have been nice to have it up and running. Breakfast bar is amazing! The pancake machine they have is really neat; I haven't ever seen anything like that!

I had a decent stay at Holiday Inn Express & Suites Vandalia, find this hotel to be an average holiday inn express, no more, no less. Beds are ok. Bathroom ok. Indoor pool, hot tub, free parking, fitness room, wifi was ok. Simple and basic breakfast.

Dogs barking in hallways, children running around all hours. Left at 5.30am - no coffee, no to-go bags. $190. ridiculous. Stained carpets, mascara on pillowcases, orange mold in shower corners. I wouldn‘t suggest this hotel.

The hotel itself is just fine, but Ohhh Boy, the heavyset front desk clerk with red hair is super annoying and rude. I am diamond/platinum etc at just about every hotel chain due to the amount I travel for work. Never have I come across a more annoying/rude front desk clerk. She programmed the room keys incorrectly so when we arrived at the room, they didn’t work. When we arrived back at the front desk, she attempted to “man-splain” how hotel keys work to me. She just does not belong in the hospitality business, as she is rude. The hotel itself is alright, it’s a wide spot in the road in backwards rural Illinois. Just don’t expect much from the front desk, she is rude and annoying.

This has been one of the best hotels of our trip. It was newer, clean and comfy. The breakfast was great! The woman working the breakfast area kept things clean and filled. DIdn't get to the pool. Very friendly staff! Vandalia was a nice surprise. We had a great meal at the Copper Penny downtown. The CP was directly across from the Old State House.

My husband and I stayed at this hotel during our son's collegiate fishing tournament. The hotel was nice, clean and fairly modern. The room was clean and very comfortable. The only complaint is that we were booked on the 1st floor next to the pantry room. I assumed this room is where the food prep and clean up takes places because I heard a lot of banging of what sounded like 'pots and pans' early morning, which was annoying. The second day, a patron has a small party in the same area as breakfast and I could hear the noise. The next time we will not stay in a room on the first floor; other than that, the stay was good.

Was pleasantly surprised to find covid protocols in place when we arrived. A name board in the lobby let us know we were expected. Check in was simple and we were quickly in a nice room with a really comfortable bed. Slept like a log (much better than home, even!). Breakfast was the best part. Kevin made sure the food was hot and plentiful. Excellent property!

I stayed for a night at this hotel for a work visit the following day, a Sunday. The place is spanking new. The rooms were clean and front lobby was very spacious. I would come again in the future. Breakfast was excellent! The nearby restaurants were a bonus.

We booked and paid for our room with two queen beds three weeks in advance. We arrive and they have sold our room and only had a king bed and didn’t seem to care. They did not offer a cheaper rate. No I did not want to sleep on a cot and pay full price for a room . Poor customer service. The only positive was the friendly lady serving breakfast.
