Although this stay was only an over-night ahead of our cruise, we truly enjoyed it. The staff was friendly, the hotel was clean, and the location was very convenient. We always choose HIE everywhere we travel and this one did not disappoint.

Had a great 1 night stay. Carol from the front desk was very helpful in the early AM, since breakfast was not served until 7am on weekends. She got us to-go bags which included 1-muffin 1-yogurt 1-banana plus utensils and napkins. She also filled my daughter’s water bottle with ice. Will stay here again.

We had a great stay overall (4 nights total). Super clean, safe, and new. No moldy hotel smell at this place! Staff was alert, regularly checking to make sure we had everything we needed. A manager who actually knows how to manage (a rarity these days!) changed our room when I mentioned the highway noise, they even prepared Grab-and-Go bags for the swimmers who leave for early practice, before breakfast opens. I overheard the staff, on several occasions, asking one another if they needed help—only employees who are contented with their job and who are managed well do that. Every part of the hotel was impeccable, including the bathroom. Oh, and there is good and fresh coffee at all times! The only downside for us was the highway noise in our first room facing I-75. The second room was better though. The investors should have spent more money and used better windows for noise cancellation. The hotel itself was very quiet, with guests being respectful of others. Overall, really nice stay, thanks to attentive staff and manager. As an Express, it exceeded our expectations.

No complaints. Quick and easy check-in. Clean room. Good comp breakfast. Nice amenities. If you are a light sleeper, ask for a room not facing I-75. It wasn't an issue for me but you do notice.
