A few complaints are they have the cheapest thinnest toilet paper and tissues and the tub was filling with water the entire time we took showers. Any housekeeper that’s cleaning would notice that and take care of it. You want to feel clean and you are standing in a half tub of dirty water. No fresh fruit, yogurt, eggs, etc. Breakfast was processed food and spoiled bananas all 3 days. Staff were very nice!!!!

This was my first time staying at a Holiday Inn Express. Everything has been amazing. The check in was super quick, the room was incredibly clean, and the beds??? SO comfortable. I will say the bathroom is super small, but functional. The bathroom door however is just an odd sliding glass (not see through) door. You can still hear everything, but other than that its been a great stay.

The hotel is very clean and hygienic and they do practice a no smoke policy - many hotels say that but you can smell smoke around the entrance. The room was spacious, near and quiet. Loved the fact that there is plenty of parking and also it is in a quiet spot on Winter Road - lot of trees and could easily take some peaceful walks. Only thing which could improve is the breakfast - not as elaborate as the Hyatt place. This is the standard bread, egg, bacon, yogurt, juice, pancake.
