This Holiday Inn Express was in a good location ( except with the construction going on the Blvd.) At the moment, making access to the facility inconvenient. But for the most part my family and I were pleased with the location, the facility, the staff( whom were all nice and polite) rooms were spacious and clean. Continental breakfast was the best I've eaten at any of the facilities. Our stay was comfortable and pleasant. Elevator wasn't working properly and the ice machine on my floor was not working But there was access on another floor. I would book this Holiday Inn Express location again in the future. Recommend.

Room was comfortable and clean. Pool was nice and enjoyable. There are maintenance needs that do not seem to be addressed..... washing machine did not work, ice machine did not work, no vending machines and the lobby refrigerated drinks and snacks were scarse. Location was good. Cost was affordable.

If you stay 3 nights or less, no cleaning service. No housekeeping services. You make your own bed. You pick up towels, toilet tissue and other items at the front desk.
