Had an experience with check in where the keys did not work. After two trips to the desk the clerk came up and checked and had to switch rooms since the lock was defective. The room we were given, the toilet paper was so low not enough for one use and no extra roll.

Various choices for breakfeast, hot coffee with creamer all day. The pool was open all day and wasnt too cold. The room had a sofa bed for my toddler. Bed was spacious and comfortable. Shower was big , enough room for me and my husband and our toddler. The only thing i would say was i wished they had bigger cups and when i pulled out the sofa bed the left side hit the ac unit

Disappointing Stay – Not What We Expected from a Holiday Inn Express & Suites We’ve always had positive experiences at Holiday Inn Express & Suites, which is why our recent stay was particularly disappointing. Unfortunately, the room fell short of the standards we’re accustomed to with this brand. The floor remained wet throughout our stay, the bathtub was clogged and didn’t drain properly, and the shower head had an overly strong, pulsating spray that made showering uncomfortable. On a positive note, the breakfast buffet was well done, offering a good variety of options including fresh fruit, pastries, breads, and hot items. We appreciated the effort in that area, but overall, the room conditions overshadowed the experience. We hope this was an isolated incident and not reflective of the usual quality expected from the Holiday Inn Express brand.
