Whenever we have trips and we need to stay somewhere for a single night, we always use holiday inn express because they are consistant, have a easy breakfast, but this was not the experience we usually have. 1) there was a huge fight in our hallway at 4am in the morning with a younger couple throwing each other against the walls, and cussing each other out because one cheated. it was so loud it woke both of our children up, and our older child couldn’t go back to sleep and was exhausted for her dance competition that morning! 2) the heaters for the breakfast didn’t work so there was no warm food…other than that, everything was consistent, and comparable service!

The room looked worn out. Сhipped furniture, dark interior. The staff would clean the breakfast room as we were having breakfast, which I find very annoying. Limited breakfast choices.

Didn’t spend a lot of time in room. It was fine. Just not as tidy as I would prefer. A little mold near the bathroom vent. Didn’t smell great. But served its purpose. Otherwise quiet, friendly staff, and convenient location
