The staff was very nice. This property was clean but clearly older, dark, and shabby. Considering the exorbitant price per night, we expected a much nicer property. The worst problem was finding this hotel! Hotels.com has the wrong address posted for this Holiday Inn Express! We discovered this when we drove to the posted address only to be told we were at the wrong Holiday Inn Express! Hotels.com needs to post the correct address!

Overall the property was nice. The pool was closed and the ice maker on the lower level was not working. Continental breakfast could be improved by offering fresh fruit. Nice grassy areas around the property to walk a dog. Suggest putting in a dog waste station.
