Our stay at the Holiday Inn express was very nice. The bed was super comfortable. The room was clean. The breakfast was really good. The only suggestion I would have was the lack of shower pressure which the hotel said that they will be checking out.

The room has leaks in the ceiling. Every time you walked into the room, there is mildew smell. We were assigned handicap room even though we are not handicapped. The handicap chair in the bathroom could not be lift out during shower. It was one of our worst stay.

This hotel had some very nice touches - fresh ground coffee by the cup, sound machine in the room to drown out any highway noises. Breakfast was good, and staff was super friendly! Will stay here again!
