Everything was very good. Workout room is very basic. I'm more of a free weight person or older Nautilus type of work out person. Bad timing on my part they ran out of coffee right as I was checking out. They provide breakfast, coffee, juice etc . Staff seem to do a good job but did not interact with them too much. It's not their fault someone was stomping around above me. This is conveniently located off highway 20

We spent six nights at this Holiday Inn Express and would highly recommend it. It is quite new and was clean and inviting. The front desk help was outstanding. The breakfasts were very good and the rooms were large with comfortable beds. The location was in a very safe location, and right off of the Interstate. The parking was very easy as well.

We had planned to only stay 1 night. The overnight guy was nice and hospitable. Everything was clean and nice. Breakfast was great! 2nd night we stayed due to the exhaustion and weather. We were blessed to stay in the same room. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good. We were bummed the juice and water machine weren't working. So no alternative for non milk drinkers.
