As soon as you walkin, you can smell a wonderful floral scent which attests to the Cleanliness of the hotel. I hadn't even "Realized" that *Real* Hotels are "Supposed" to have "Wonderful" scents, because I have Never "Experienced" this Before in "my Life!" WOW! *Great Job* on the "inner" Beauty of Holiday Inn Express and Suites Ocala IHG! It was like a "Great Awakening!" Thanks for this wonderful touch! *Incredible!* Thank you!
