Categories

Cleanliness
8.6
Multiple guests repeatedly praised cleanliness ("very clean", "room was nice. Clean and well maintained", "Camas limpias y cómodas"), though a few mentioned issues (bathroom vent needed cleaning, inconsistent housekeeping).
Service
7.8
Service is mixed: many reports of friendly, helpful front desk and staff, but several guests described annoyed or poor staff interactions and at least one report of housekeeping failing to return as requested.
Location
8.8
Location is a clear strength — proximity to downtown, Rt. 10, restaurants and a ballpark is repeatedly noted — offset only by rooms adjacent to the interstate being noisy for some guests.
Room Quality
8.4
Rooms are described as comfortable and well maintained with comfortable beds and good bedding, though some maintenance issues were reported (gap under door, noisy freeway-side rooms, occasional locking concerns).
Amenities
7.6
Amenities are adequate (outdoor pool mentioned, basic breakfast), but there are notable negatives: elevators not always working, limited on-site beverage availability (no beer for sale reported) and some staffing/maintenance impacts on amenity access.
Value for Money
8.8
Several guests explicitly called this a good value or great value, highlighting convenience and solid basics for the price.
Food and Beverage
8.1
Breakfast is frequently described as good/basic and satisfactory; restaurants are within walking distance. A few minor negatives (limited beverage sales on-site) temper the score.
Overall Experience
7.5
Overall impressions skew positive with many "great" or "would stay again" comments, but recurring noise, some maintenance and inconsistent service experiences lower the aggregate overall experience.

Pros:

I like very much the quick acces from the lobby to the eleveators and from the elevators to the rooms very strategic matching the name of Holiday Express
I tried to buy beer to enjoy in the lobby and no beer was available for sale that I did not like

Pros:

Room was nice, just a little noisy from the highway right outside. Should have asked for a room on the other side of the building. Clean and nicely appointed. Breakfast was good. Hard to go wrong at HI Express.

Pros:

It was a nice hotel, clean the beds were comfortable the lady who checked us in was very nice she even gave us a little box of milk for my baby because we didn't have any and we were looking for milk. Only thing that i didn't enjoy it was that our room was by the freeway side and it was very noisy but other than that was great.
