Great hotel!

Nice and quiet until some was dropping weights in the weight room at 5 am for 45 minutes! Otherwise wonderful! Beds very comfy and pillows nice too! Seems to be newly renovated too. Hot breakfast with fresh food and attendants were prompt on checking everything. Really impressed with this Holiday Inn Express.

This was my first stay since the remodel. The place looks great! The lady at the front desk explained everything was ripped down to the studs and new! Not just cover up the old. It really was nice looking! My room was perfect! Beds made beautifully. LOVE THE BATHROOM AMENITIES! The ONLY thing negative that happened is that I found 2 bugs crawling on the wall in the room. Not spiders. Black & brown like roach type looking bugs. I’m not afraid - I killed the bugs. I didn’t call and complain or ask for a new room at that time of night. It was easier to kill the bugs and move on. Maybe the recent construction stirred them up? It looked clean, smelled clean… just a couple bugs

Need noise insulation on room

Room was adjacent to another room (through a door inside the room). Unfortunately the people on the next room were loud until late, and we could listen to all their talk. Please make sure that those connected room also offer insulation from noise.
