Liked: Cleanliness
The breakfast is very good and staff replenish the food pretty quickly. Coffee was good too. Hotel room is generally pretty clean except a couple of stains on the carpet. Car park isn't free which I think should be free for paying hotel customers. There isn't air conditioning in the room so it would be very hot if the weather is very warm otherwise a fan is provided in the room. The welcoming staff at the desk wasn't as attentive as I would expect because we were waiting for quite a while & no one had acknowledged our arrival & some other staff who were near the desk faffing also didn't acknowledge us. Apart from that, the other staff members were friendly & helpful.

Everything was great from the minute we arrived. We stayed for 4 nights, breakfast was great every morning and had a great selection especially for a holiday inn express. The hotel room itself was clean and exactly what we needed. Not a single complaint from either of us
