good stay with room for improvement

The thermostat allowed easy adjustments for personal comfort. The bed was incredibly soft, making it a pleasure to unwind after a long day. Having Dove products in the bathroom was a nice touch that added a bit of luxury to my stay.

The city view was obstructed from my room.

I thoroughly enjoyed the clean, modern decor and excellent accessibility options for seniors. The location right by the river provided stunning views, and the friendly staff made my stay very pleasant. The breakfast choices were also delightful.

More seating in common areas would be helpful.

delicious breakfast

Recommended for couples craving comfort

The free hot breakfast was excellent, two types of eggs and fresh cinnamon rolls were a real treat. Plus, the patio right next to the breakfast room was perfect for enjoying views of the river while we ate.

It wasn’t exactly inexpensive, but still acceptable for what we got.

My stay at Holiday Inn Express was overall very satisfying. The room was immaculate and comfortable, featuring easy temperature control, and the Dove toiletries provided a nice touch. The location was convenient, close to various shops and restaurants. Breakfast offerings included a diverse array of options, enhancing the start of my day. The fitness center was an added bonus for maintaining my routine.

Check-in process was frustrating.

limited pool

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel with 20 family members. The area is perfect for outdoor fun, especially the 300 acres of open water. We enjoyed kayaking and fishing together. There are plenty of nearby shops and restaurants to explore.

My children wanted a better pool area for that extra splash fun.

cramped suite

Great amenities but tight space

We spent 2 nights in a standard king room. The coffee maker was a nice touch, and the Dove soaps were a treat. However, the suite we got was super cramped, barely space for us to move. Breakfast options were solid, though the pool felt a bit small and smelled of chlorine. Should've just stuck with the standard room!
