The hotel was in a convenient location and our room was excellent. The property was not well maintained. There wasn't an ice machine on our floor and one of the two elevators wasn't working. The front entrance needed pressure washed.

The staff was great and very accommodating and the location great because it was easy to access restaurants, beach, and many other attractions. The property was in horrible conditions with the carpets mold smells, the floors dirty, and elevator only working barely and the other broken.

This Holiday Inn Express was in a good location ( except with the construction going on the Blvd.) At the moment, making access to the facility inconvenient. But for the most part my family and I were pleased with the location, the facility, the staff( whom were all nice and polite) rooms were spacious and clean. Continental breakfast was the best I've eaten at any of the facilities. Our stay was comfortable and pleasant. Elevator wasn't working properly and the ice machine on my floor was not working But there was access on another floor. I would book this Holiday Inn Express location again in the future. Recommend.
