Everything was what we expected from the hotel. Breakfast was lovely, clean and comfortable. It was the first time we had stayed in a Holiday Inn Express and will definitely stay in one again.
Everything was fine, probably more lighting in the room.

Poor
location is good, breakfast was not bad. Staff was friendly and helpful as much as they could.
Room was pathetic. When you tap on pillow, dust was coming off. Room was old and very small.
