The room was fine. The bed was comfortable. The A/C worked well. ESPN was the only TV channel that wouldn't come through. One major issue: when we returned to the room in the evening, the door was not latched shut. Anyone could have entered. The housekeeping staff must not have pulled the door shut. Fortunately nothing was missing.

Parking scam

We were surprised to find a $10 parking charge at Holiday Inn Express—something that wasn't disclosed upfront. Feels like an unfair and sneaky fee.
