Hotels Near Five Below in Oklahoma City

Very convenient hotel, the hotel is located in a convenient neighborhood, next door is a large Mexican restaurant, opposite McDonald's, next to two gas stations. Close to high speed, three or four minutes drive from Kentucky fast food, and seven minutes from Chinese cafeteria. Very close to the shopping center, three minutes drive from Sam's Club. The hotel's breakfast is full, and the room has plenty of hot water and heating. We stayed several times because the hotel was very convenient for life and parking. The hotel staff is amiable and responsive. Also, the hotel is very cost-effective, less than $50/night, very affordable. Highly recommend to friends with cars to stay at this hotel!

Put my mom up in this hotel after a very long day and a cancelled flight (thank you Frontier airlines). The gentleman at the front desk was SO helpful and accommodating and really made her stay (I wish I had gotten his name)! 10/10 for customer service.

I agree with the previous reviewer in that the photos on the website didn't look like the hotel we arrived at. It was older than the photos. I guess I should have had a clue when I knew they didn't have an elevator. Our checkin went smooth and quick and the front desk people were friendly. Room was a good size and clean but older. It did have a closed up smell. We did have a tornado warning on the first night we were there. Never being in a warning before, we called the front desk and he told us to come to the first floor hallway and stay away from the window. Well, we stood in the hallway for the first 30 minutes and after it was extended and additional 30 minutes, I went and got chairs from the breakfast area to sit in while we waited. The breakfast was your average contential breakfast. This hotel was close to what we did in the area but probably our least favorite on our 11 day trip. If I was in the area again, I would stay elsewhere.

Simply incredible experience. From the moment at check in to check out this was a 5 star experience. I was travelling solo to visit family about 20 minutes away and the staff happily helped me find my new favorite coffee shop, as well as great places to chill out for a meal and a cocktail that were friendly on my wallet with the vibes I needed. The car/shuttle service was on point and was offered before I even had to ask once I knew the direction I was headed. I got a king corner room and it was amazing in itself. Great views, comfy bed and after the cleaning staff made the bed they put my book back on the bed with the page opened to where I had left it. Nice touch!! My only regret here was that I didn't get the names of the guys working the counter and the drivers. You were all amazing - thank you. I will be back.

The food at the Skirvin is excellent and room service was prompt and delicious. The staff was friendly, courteous and helpful. The Facilities at the hotel are more than adequate. Parking was well lit with a security person on duty and the Valet staff were accommodating and friendly. Our overall experience was as good and better than what we have experienced any where in our frequent travels. I just wish we could get a better rate closer to $100.00 for a standard king.

The valet service was excellent and a blessing in the heat. Also, everything is closeby so there is not much driving or traffic to hassele your stay. . We were missing a hairdryer but the front desk was prompt to deliver one to our room.

This is a pleasant, well-maintained property that delivers an experience consistent with what you would expect from Holiday Inn Express. Most importantly, the room was clean and comfortable, and everything was in working order. Common areas were well-kept and inviting. Front desk personnel were friendly. I inquired about a late checkout and was cheerfully offered a 2 PM checkout, which I appreciated (things like that are remembered). Parking (self-parking) is $15 per night, with in-and-out privileges. That seems reasonable for an urban hotel near the heart of a medium-sized city. The parking is in an outdoor lot behind the hotel, with access controlled by your room key activating a swing arm (a swing arm also guards the lot exit, but it lifts automatically; no key card is required to lift it). Hotel guests may keep their cars in the lot during the afternoon after checkout provided they do not leave the lot and attempt to re-enter the lot. The ”Bricktown” development (seemingly Oklahoma City's attempt to replicate the San Antonio River Walk) is a short 2-block walk from the hotel. A stroll along the canal is a nice experience. The complimentary breakfast was standard Holiday Inn Express fare, with staff doing a nice job keeping hot items restocked. Hot items included a pancake machine, freshly made oatmeal, sausage links, potatoes, and pre-fab cheese ”omelets”. The fitness center is fairly run-of-the-mill for mid-tier lodging, with two treadmills, an elliptical machine, a bike, a weight machine, some dumbbells, medicine balls, and a weight bench. I appreciate that the room had a microwave and dorm-sized refrigerator. A couple of small nits: (1) The fitness center had music coming through speakers in the ceiling, and it was loud. When standing on the elliptical machine, the speaker was within a short distance of my head. Hey hotel: it's 2024; people generally bring their own audio entertainment to their workouts. (2) While I appreciated the late (2 PM) checkout, I did find myself locked out of my room at 1 PM so had to go back down to the desk to get the key reauthorized. Overall, however, I would recommend this property and would stay again were my travels take me to downtown OK City.

Hotel staff were very accommodating and kind. They even recommended places to go to/activities to do.

Will never stay again. The layout of our suite was terrible. Our king bed faced directly into the bathroom. The sliding barn door to the bathroom was slightly opaque when closed but clearly forms and light shown through. When the door is open we looked DIRECTLY at the sink, mirror and countertop from our bed. The TV was placed to the side of the bathroom barn door and was made to swivel between the bed and the sitting area. The AC blew directly onto the bed and we had to cover it with towels not to be frozen and uncomfortable. The room was clean and quiet. But not a choice for us again.

The hotels general manager, Patel, made everything from checking in to checking out miserable. I work for Marriott. I know that the Marriott standard is to treat every guest like family. The goal is to make people want to come back. Her customer service skills are subpar, and if she doesn’t know how to treat another Marriott employee and their family, who showed nothing but kindness, I hate to think how she treats her employees that shes’s actually in charge of. Based on what I hear, it’s not well. The front desk employee, Liz, runs the place like a well oiled machine and should replace Patel immediately. She treats everyone who walks in the door like her best friend. She is the only reason I didn’t take my money elsewhere. And there are PLENTY of hotels within 5 miles of that place. As for the hotel itself, there’s not much to complain about. The hotel is clean and quiet. Breakfast is adequate. The rooms seem to be kept up. It’s probably the only reason, that and Liz, that people stay there. When you manage a hotel, you need to always keep in mind your guests are there for a variety of reasons. I had a sudden death in the family and had to fly home for a funeral. The last thing I needed to worry about was management treating my family members checking in with disrespect. And the last thing any of us needed at such a sensitive time was front desk staff taking out their lack of customer service skills on us. You never know what people are going through. Being nice to paying guests, and greeting them with a smile isn’t hard to do. The general manger could really use some training on how to run a hotel and to gain some people skills. She’s obviously miserable and you can clearly see on the faces of the employees that her lack of enthusiasm for the people who stay there is wearing thin the tolerance the staff has for the guests and their needs. It’s only a matter of time before people take their money elsewhere.
