    Olga went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and enjoyable. The continental breakfast was very impressive! Best continental breakfast ever! We would have gave a 5 star rating but the pool was out of service.

    We go there for the indoor pool and jacuzzi. After the renovations, no more jacuzzi. Sad. Have not gone back since.

    Close drive to everything and better price than hotels on the coast. Clean, simple, nice pool and breakfast. Tech support helped me connect to faulty wifi in 4 minutes, super helpful.

    I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express over Thanksgiving and had a very disappointing experience. My partner and I found the room and facilities outdated and not as advertised in the photos. The noise levels at night were unbearable, and overall it was very uncomfortable. We ended up leaving two nights early because of how uncomfortable the stay was. Even worse, the hotel refused to provide any partial refund for the unused nights, despite my attempts to resolve it through both the front desk and the booking service. It’s disappointing to see such a lack of customer care. I hope the management will consider improving their service in the future.
