Comfortable, quiet, well-maintained hotel
From friendly staff to clean, comfortable room, Holiday InnExpress met all our needs. We especially liked the easy to use shower and built in night light. Breakfast met our needs and coffee was hot and tasty.

Quality stay but on the higher side of cost.
Always a good place to stay. The kids love the water slides. The room was comfortable. Rooms are a bit high priced.
