The staff were pleasant but we had trouble getting help with a piece of medical equipment when we were ready to leave. The location is quiet and the breakfast was good. Our only real complaint was that the floor in our room wasn't that clean. It seemed a bit sandy underfoot from the get go.

This was a typical Holiday Inn Express - clean, comfy, friendly and convenient. It was a great stop on our road trip. Comfy and quiet room, very clean. Breakfast had sufficient choices and the food was hot. I used the workout room, too, and it was small, but nice. We have come to trust the quality and cleanliness of Holiday Inn Express, and almost always book them when on trips.

There was no running water when we checked in. We were told it would be fixed in 3 hours. We left for a few hours to have dinner. When we returned, there was cold water only. We called the desk. Someone said the hot water would be repaired the next day. So no showers for us, and no one apologized.
