Just about everything was excellent about this Holiday Inn Express. The only problem that we had was with our door key cards had issues unlocking the door. We had one card replaced and the staff cleaned the door lock, but even they had problems getting the lock to read the card and unlock the door. Everything else was great, especially the breakfast and swimming pool.
