Reviewed 3 April 2013

Although the building is unassuming on the outside, giving the impression that it might be a bit run-down, appearances are definitely deceiving. Like virtually ever other Holiday Inn Express, the facility is clean and well-managed throughout. The rooms are comfortable, with excellent pillows and mattresses, and the indoor pool is well-maintained. Service was impressive, even by their corporate standards. The... More
