The hotel was very clean as was my spacious room with everything in it. The dining area was very clean and the free breakfast was varied and plentiful. I like the fact that they had takeaway bags for the breakfast. I was very impessed with the hotel. Friendly staff as well.

Stayed overnight at Holiday Inn. While I did not use it, they offered to pay for the cab as their shuttle driver had a day off. Room was excellent and the breakfast was pretty good.

Kind of difficult to get to as directional signage was nonexistent. I thought the room was very nice. Looks like it had been updated recently throughout the hotel. All except the bathroom ceiling for some reason? Everything sparkled like new and then look up and see old rusty ceiling grid? Breakfast was typical free variety. Pillows too big & hard. It was well worth the money. I’d stay again without hesitating. We stayed 1 night at Aloft by Marriott But wish I’d stayed put at HI Express!šŸ˜Ž

Its an older hotel. Very clean, easy access from the highway. Plenty of restaurants and groceries within walking distance. Staff was very friendly. Breakfast was decent with a variety, unless you are picky or looking for 5 stars. Will definitely be back for future events. Pool looked nice too.
