Pool needs repair and cleaning at the top rim of the pool. Breakfast lady on my last day was very rude. Ran out of eggs two mornings at breakfast which I thought was unacceptable. Cleaning staff ladies are very nice and helpful. This is my fourth time to stay here and I will have to think real hard if I’m gonna stay there again.

Booked room 6 months in advance but we were put next to the noisy laundry. Cleaning carts blocking our way in hall and front desk told us 'go ahead and move them'. Loud machinery noise every 21 seconds all night (couldnt sleep so i timed them). Apart from all the slamming doors and noise through thin walls we managed some sleep until cleaning crew started banging things around at 6-7 am. After a terrible breakfast selection we checked out and had about 18" to get our luggage through cleaning carts while the staff just looked at us. Front desk clerk never looked up as we dropped keys and we left. By far worst HI Express stay ever! For the record it was 1 of 8 hotels on our journey and all others got 5 stars!
