You get a good solid stay as expected at Holiday Inn Express. Room and beds are comfortable --- not luxury mind you, but good enough to pass the night during travel and catch a good night's sleep. I really like the breakfast buffet --- basic but substantial and good quality. In fact I've stayed at castles which were only slightly better (for multiple times the price)

Hot breakfast was a plus and we requested a late checkout and there were no issues with that . However there were very loud people until 2-3am right outside our door . My husband had surgery that day and needed to rest so it was a tough night
