Nice staff. Helpful and courteous. I had a suite, it was very spacious could sleep six and still have room to move around. The floors, the bathroom, everything was extremely clean. I tend to clean my own hotel when I check in, but there was no need here. It was spotless not one peck of dirt was on my cleaning wipes.

Overall, we had a good stay. The property is in the middle of a huge renovation project, but they tried to make the inconveniences as minimal as possible. The room was clean and spacious, even for our group of six. However, the pool is closed as part of the renovations, and the grandkids were extremely disappointed that they were not able to swim. The HVAC unit in the room cooled the room adequately, but it made an annoying tapping/clicking sound whenever the air conditioning was engaged.

We love staying at this Holiday Inn Express!! The hotel suite is always clean and comfortable, the staff are so kind and professional, the breakfast buffet is always delicious/has lots of hot/cold selections, and the location is next to many wonderful restaurants and Berea Artisan Center!! I want to give a shout out to Jennifer Clem, Breakfast Hostess, who with her smile and wonderful energy provided a great selection of omelets, biscuits and gravy, turkey sausage, cinnamon rolls, etc. always available for all the guests at the hotel from 6 am to 9:30 am each morning!! On Sunday, July 6th, she had an assistant, Amber, who was awesome as well!! God bless you all!!
