Good one night stay
Every thing was up to a Holiday Inn Express Standard until construction started in my hallway outside my door at 7:30 am.
Stopped after a few minutes and started again at 8:30.
We run businesses and don’t really understand this thinking… the hotel was not full. Why would you not re-carpet one floor at a time and put all guests on the other floors.
Anyways… everything else was fine !
In a week or so when the Reno’s are done it should be back to normal 👍
A little farther from the highway, which was one reason why we chose it . So that I could sleep in …. lol
Husband says that Breakfast was good average and seating was comfortable. Coffee was sub par .

Staff was nice and friendly, the place was clean, my only complaint but I don’t know if the hotel can help it, it’s the thin walls or very noisy guests
