We enjoyed our stay at Holiday Inn express. The room was spacious and the property overall was well managed. The breakfast menu was excellent. We utilized their gym and pool during our stay too. Loved that towels were available in both areas. Glad we stayed here overnight as a family.

Clean, quiet, and comfortable stay. The staff was polite and very helpful throughout my visit, and as a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and at ease. I didn’t try the breakfast, but it looked and smelled great when I passed by. Would definitely stay again!
