Overall we enjoyed our 1 night stay at Holiday Inn Express. Location was great. About 5-10 minute drive to Busch Gardens & College of William & Mary and 20 minutes to Williamsburg Premium Outlets which I highly recommend. Staff were friendly and breakfast was good. Only downside would be the thin walls & door. We could hear our next door neighbor with little children.
