I think the resort should be advertised as a partial ocean view as the rooms do not have a direct view of the ocean.

Holiday Inn Express Destin E - Commons Mall area by IHG
Room was not the cleanest. Bathroom was dirty, and had a smell. Food was on the floor. I had to clean up before my kids enter the room. Staff lady was cool she gave me some cleaning supplies, but overall it was ok.
