Weekend Getaway

Just an overnight getaway to enjoy local sites with my wife. The hotel facilities have everything you need, nothing lacking. Our room was very clean and the King size bed quite comfortable. We enjoyed the pool area which was very relaxing and beautiful. A nice breakfast spread was provided, with my wife's favorite biscuits and sausage gravy, and you could have eggs or pancakes or cold breakfast items as well. Overall, we loved our stay. This was our first stay at a Holiday Inn Express and will book at other locations as we travel.

The stay overall was fine. However when we returned after an evening out visiting family, we had a hard time finding a parking spot due to at least 3 trucks hauling long trailers parked ACROSS multiple parking spots. Between the 3 trucks we saw, they must have blocked at least 25-30 parking spaces combined. And they were all occupying spaces fairly close to the entrance. The only spot we found available was on the very far side of the building. I’m disabled and often have a hard time walking due to pain, so having to park so far away because inconsiderate guests took up so many close spaces with only a few vehicles wasn’t fun. I’m surprised the staff allowed it and didn’t at least have them parked their trucks and trailers far in the back rather than right up front.

This was a decent hotel. The rooms had a bit of a musty odor, but that can be typical with hotel rooms. I did have to wait a bit to check in as there was only one person working and she wasn’t at the desk when I arrived and there was a line already there waiting to check in as well. We also had an issue with our TV and when I called the front desk, there was an issue with the phone and the person who answered was a bit rude (I called and it just rang and when I called back, I was hung up on, when I called back it just rang again), I ended up fixing the tv issue myself. The stay in general was decent, it was just when interacting with staff that things weren’t the best.
