My stay was ok. My room phone didn’t work, breakfast was not good. One of the main reason I booked here was for the breakfast. The room was clean and bed felt amazing. I didn’t like I couldn’t get a receipt at checkout because I booked through Hotels.com. That has never happen before.

Hello,Thank you for choosing the Holiday Inn Express. We appreciate your thoughtful review. We will take all feedback into consideration and apologize that you were not able to obtain a receipt as Hotels.com should have sent an emailed receipt to you on the day of check out. We can always print a blank receipt for you but a detailed receipt would come from the third party you booked with. Please let us know if there is anything else we may assist you with. We hope you will give our Hotel another try in the future
It was a horrible experience staying at this hotel. On 6AM Saturday 11/25/2023, my family were waked up by noise from upstairs. The noise were constant and we had to get up around 7AM. I called front desk and was told that the two rooms I paid for was directly underneath the breakfast area. I asked hotel front desk(Elizabeth) to reflect this to the manager. I complained about hotel shall not sell the two rooms directly under breakfast area without telling customer upfront. I also requested front desk to have manager call me back. I'm very disappointed that it's been 4 days and no one called me back. My wife and my son suffered headache from the disturbance of the noise. The hotel clerk told me that they usually do not sell the rooms underneath breakfast area. Sounds like they are aware of the issue but still sold the rooms to customer without upfront disclosure.
I'm sending complains to multiple agencies and demand hotel to refund my payment since the hotel failed to provide quiet enjoyment which I had paid for it. Not to mention the pain and suffering due to the greediness of this business.

Hello Narcizo,We are delighted to hear you had a good experience. We are happy to hear you enjoyed the quiet environment the hotel provides. Please let us know how we can improve our brand and get the perfect score next time around.
Quite place. Staff are efficient and helpful. Pillows could be better. They are too soft and flatten after a few hours.

The hotel was not what we expected, given the price we paid for it. When we walked in, the girl at the front desk was nice, but didn't smile much. When we asked about the pool and hot tub, she said it wasn't open, with no explaination. Our room was pretty basic. It felt like motel 6 with Hilton pricing. The breakfast was very good.

If there’s anything specific you’d like to highlight about your experience, please feel free to share!
I have stayed at this hotel several times. I was disappointed that the spa was under construction and not available. It’s understandable but still a disappointment. The breakfast is usually very good. This time, not so much. The sausage patties and egg omelets were very over cooked everyday and links were not an option.
The breakfast is a reason that I opt to stay here at a higher price than other options. I’ll likely look at other accommodation options in the future.
Friendly staff, good breakfast, big and clean rooms. The gym is a bit small, mainly cardio equipment and 1 rack off loose weights.
Overall a good experience
New, clean and quiet! Great breakfast! 1 minute drive to the beach where parking was never an issue. A little on the pricey side for weekends but you get what you pay for. Definitely would recommend.
