What actually stood out was the fact that this location was not up to the normal standards of Holiday Inn Express. Hallways were dirty, carpet was worn, fruit was not as fresh as I have come to expect, no waffle option and couldn't find pancake mix, etc BUT the staff was friendly and accommodating.

Everything was updated and clean. The beds have very thick memory foam toppers if you like that kind of thing. Good shower and breakfast. The bed was the only lost star as I had a lot of trouble being able to get onto it, being on short side
