We always consider Holiday Inn Express to be a cut above the usual midgrade property, and this stay reinforced that opinion. The room was spacious and well maintained, with plenty of light and a very comfortable bed. The furniture was comfortable and well chosen, the bathroom bright, clean and well maintained. The shower was excellent. Our overall impression was that this property was well worth our time, and that we were very lucky to find it for the price we paid on our way home from the U.P.

James was very good in the breakfast area. He kept everything filled up and the area clean. He was very pleasant to talk to. Upon returning to our room, our key wouldn't work. It was only 9:45am, checkout is at 11. We had to go to the front desk to get our key programmed again. The maid said they probably thought we had already checked out. What?!
