You're not going to avert a nuclear power plant meltdown, but you can definitely say "I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night" after staying here. Conveniently located near I-495, a Friendly's and a Dunkin Donuts, the hotel room is dated and shows wear, but staff is friendly. Breakfast is typical, with a pretty decent sized breakfast area.

The hotel is very nice, a lot more than being only decent. The front desk personnel are very helpful and really into helping you. The breakfast it's not quite multichoice however you have to be really picky not to find anything you might like. Bed linens are changed every two days or so, towels also or every day if you... More

I don't usually drive to hotels but this one was easy to find. Staff is friendly and helpful, breakfast is ready early (although the eggs were overcooked every day), and the place was decently clean. This wasn't a perfect stay - no fridge or microwave in the room, two of the lamps had burnt-out bulbs, and they didn't vacuum the... More

In short, this hotel was filthy. I checked in without any hassles and went up to my room to settle in and take a shower. Upon pulling back the shower curtain however, I found clumps of hair in several spots in the shower as well as excessive mildew on the back of the shower curtain (sorry, I did not think... More

I really appreciate your taking the time to share your disappointment with your stay. I want to apologize that the hotel was not as clean as our standards demand.

Good hotel, just off the Interstate. Complimentary breakfast was good, room was very big. Also, it was insulated really well so I slept perfectly. But why-o-why, in this day and age, do they only have wi-fi internet available in the lobby area? Offer it in-room as well, and I will award five "stars" instead of four.... More

The hotel was fine and I had no issues with it at all other than the ice machine on my floor being broken for my entire stay. The staff was very pleasant, offered restaurant suggestions for dinner, and gave me a multi-page list of restaurants, including directions. Since this is not a full-service hotel, unless I wanted to eat at... More

Got a great hotel rate at the last minute. Received good service from the front desk attendant who was friendly, attentive and quick. I very much appreciated this after a very long day and arriving at an hour I was expecting to have to wait till someone came back to the front desk area. Hotel room was older with an... More

Check in was fine and the room and hotel were clean and modern but the customer service the next morning left much to be desired. My daughter discovered that she had forgotten her razor and we attempted to call the front desk at least 5 times in a 45 minute period to inquire about the availability of one. No answer.... More
