Holiday Inn Express is our new "go to" hotel!

Despite our previous experiences with HOTELS.COM, this hotel was really nice. The room had the amenities we needed to be comfortable and safe, the breakfast we VERY GOOD, and the staff were very helpful when needed.

Rooms definitely need a ton of work. The tub/shower was brown and probably needs to be professionally cleaned or replaced.

My favorite out of the 3 hotels we've stayed at so far. Clean, safe, the sheets felt luxerious, nice friendly staff, great breakfast (warm cinnamon rolls were delicious). Walls are thin, though, and we had loud families around us. Would stay here again

Overall the property is nice and close to the beach but not on the beach. Just a short walk through Hurricane Moe’s parking lot. The hotel is updated and very clean. The pictures of the pool are misleading. The pool is not very big. The housekeeping crew was great! Breakfast was good with hot and cold options. Overall a great price for the hotel. Hard to stay in a hotel without a kitchen, but great for a shorter stay.

The food at breakfast wasn’t labeled. No nondairy options for yogurt or milks. The cleanliness was no great and it was rather noisy in the hotel.
