The hotel was very nice, and the room was exceptionally clean. The staff at check in and check out were quite friendly! This is the one Holiday Inn Express that I’ve stayed at that didn’t have the infamous cinnamon rolls at breakfast, so that was a minor letdown. Overall, I’d stay here again if in town!
