Not a memorable stay in Fayetteville/Ft. Bragg area. Given how many choices at similar price points there are in this immediate area, Holiday Inn Express was not notable in a positive way. We had several small problems that added up to hassles. First, no hot water in the shower on the first night we arrived, nor the next morning after breakfast. That seems to be a basic requirement for a hotel (having enough hot water). Second, the hotel wi-fi wasn't working. I tried signing on about 4 times the correct way, and it kept telling me that my name was not valid. After calling the front desk, they gave me a special pass code to use, which also didn't work. Bottom line: their wi-fi was not working at all when I needed to use it. (So why not give me an error message saying the wifi was down rather than "Name and room number not recognized?"). Finally, some problems in the breakfast area about 45 min before the breakfast was supposed to end: lots of loud noises from a worker dumping boxes on the ground between the seating area and the side door, leading to the laundry room. When I complained to the front desk staff (who were as close to the noise as I was), they had no idea what I was talking about. Overall a 2 star experience at a 3 star hotel!
