The room smelled clean and fresh. No stale smell anywhere we went in this Hotel. The breakfast was tops…we absolutely enjoyed it for 4 days. My husband raved about it everyday. Plenty of parking space also. We will definitely check out other Holiday Inn expresses when we travel.

I really liked the breakfast options and how clean the place was. I just would have liked the pool water would have been warm. The pool room was warm, but the water was really cold.

This is a great place to stay at a very affordable price. The breakfast buffet has an excellent selection, rooms were very clean, beds comfortable and no fee for parking. Also there’s a little mall like 2 mins drive away with a number of restaurants surrounding it and a convenient Target. Would highly recommend!

Great stay, rooms were clean and comfortable. Maid service each day which was nice. A lot of other hotels do not clean the rooms every day. Clean towels each day and refill on coffee. Would recommend this hotel!
