I am absolutely sick about a recent transaction from this hotel. I have stayed here before, and have friends staying here as well regarding different events. I have been phoned by IHG for different promos I have taken part of, especially traveling in the states. This past weekend I had reserved a room for the weekend, and thought I had cancelled due to booking an Airbnb because of family staying with me. The hotel proceeded to bill me for the weekend even though I NEVER checked in. There is absolutely NO record of me staying with this hotel! I phoned and spoke to a representative of the hotel with no help, "Just that is our policy" I feel this is theft! People work hard for their pay, and being taken advantage of in this manor is very criminal in my opinion.

Had such a great experience staying here at the Holiday Inn Express. The room was tidy and clean with all of the fixtures in working excellent condition 👍 The breakfast was decent and the staff there are exceptional! In particular, I want to give a big shout out to the overnight staff, Bob. I really enjoyed our conversations together! Thank you Bob for all of the laughs and sharing your wisdom with me 🙂
Until next time!
