I had a decent stay at the hotel. The room was clean and the beds were soft, although a bit smaller than what I’ve experienced at other Holiday Inn Express locations. The location was convenient for exploring the area, but it was right next to a loud road, which was a downside. The service from the staff was friendly, making the overall experience pretty enjoyable.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was really convenient, making it easy to get to the beach and nearby stores.
