The entire hotel is very clean. Staff at front desk is very cordial. Beds and pillows were very comfy and clean. Bathroom had dispensers for shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion and hand soap. Breakfast had eggs, sausage, waffles, fruit, yogurt, cinnamon rolls, omelets. Very nice selection. Easy to find off of I65. Walmart right by hotel as well as other shopping and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again!

This is our 2nd or 3rd time staying at this Holiday Inn Express in Alabaster, AL. VERY clean hotel, friendly staff, and we are more than comfortable when we come to town. They are a little pricey, but it is worst the peace that we get when we are here. THANK YOU, and we look forward to staying there again in the future.
