Not great. pancake machine didn't make very good pancakes. Prefer waffle maker. Eggs tasted like egg substitute.

Cons:

the jacuzzi was what I really enjoy, but I was told it was not open, but I saw guests enjoying it while I was there.

Für die Durchreise und 1 Nacht in Ordnung
Pros:

Das Zimmer ansich war ok, es war sauber und hatte gute, bequeme Betten und Kissen. Der Teppich war aber abgeranzt und schmutzig.

Cons:

Die Dame am Check In war faul, unfreundlich und zu bequem, ganz untypisch für die USA.

Excellent stay and this location is the first one that stands out because of the size of the room.
Pros:

Breakfast was alright, also there are lots of parking space to accommodate. I love the size of the room, and it is huge compared to another Holiday in Express that I've stayed. We were able to check in early because I was an IHG member.

Cons:

Low pressure water
