PRO’s-Property was nice and clean, had a great continental breakfast. CON’s- booked on Travelocity and was given the price of $145 for Friday and $145 for Saturday. When we checked out we were told they charge more on Saturdays. So we were actually charged $304 for Saturday. Waiting on a return call from the property to discuss with a manager. If they charge more on Saturday why didn’t the price reflect that when we booked it????

Good value and comfortable

Overall, the rooms are nice and very comfortable. You are best going down early for breakfast otherwise it gets a little bit dry, but there is hapes to choose from or pretty much anyone including healthier options. My only complaint would be the air conditioning units. They are very very loud and go on and that's all night. Powerful for when it's hot but incredibly loud and there really isn't. No quiet fan mode. Bring earplugs.

Good but no cinnamon rolls!!!

Overall, our stay was fine. Room was comfortable, AC worked great, and hotel was quiet. However, we were very disappointed with the lack of the usual cinnamon rolls at breakfast. For years we've been coming to Holiday Inn Expresses and this is the first time that cinnamon rolls were not found. This is one of the primary reasons for booking. Hopefully this was just a temporary glitch.
