Stayed 2 night's and had 2 excellent night's of sleep. Cookies available each evening. the daily breakfast is not like most hotel breakfast it actually is very good. The nice lady who handles the breakfast in the morning is quite an asset to their company.Everyone from maintenance to manager very helpful very friendly.

I'm a consultant that spends a lot of time in hotels. I prefer Residence Inns, but there's not one in this area, so I stayed in the Holiday Inn Express. It's OK, with a good, clean room, breakfast, refrigerator in the room, etc. There's a pool and hot tub, and "excersize room." The ho-hum parts... two or three times a... More

We had a bit of trouble finding it, (Holiday Rd is right beside the on ramp to I75N) Check in was efficient and friendly. The hotel had a complete redo and the rooms are well appointed with new furniture and nice photographs. Internet is just o k. We only stayed one night but would come back to this place.

The check in process was smooth and friendly. The hotel is clean and up to the standards of Holiday Inn Express. The rooms have many of the new furniture and lighting features of some of the newer properties like nice adjustable LED reading lights on the bed. I even liked the old black and white photograph art in the rooms;... More

Check in was fast and pleasant, the front desk clerk was very friendly and had everything ready as I walked in. Being a gold member, I received a larger room which included a microwave,... More
