Great stay there for the 2 nights. You could walk to several restaurants near by.
Pros:

Breakfast was very good. They kept everything stocked up when it was running low. Choices of food were exceptional, except for a broken pancake maker. The location was perfect for where we needed to be. Some of the staff could work on their friendliness.

Cons:

Our room was tucked in a corner & was too small. Did not realize it would be so small. The bathroom had a few things that needed fixing.

Great check in experience
Pros:

Nova checked me in and he was awesome. I'm a Diamond Elite member and he certainly made me feel like it.
These are the type of people who represents the IHG brand in a very positive way!

Great hospitality
Pros:

We had a great stay at the Holiday Inn Express – Atlanta/Kennesaw. The staff was friendly, the rooms were comfortable, and the breakfast was perfect for our baseball team. I made an error with my reservation, and Nova took care of it right away. If we’re back in the area, we’ll definitely stay again.

Great breakfast
Pros:

This was just a weekend away and the full breakfast was a great time and money saver.

Cons:

The bed was a little too soft. I thought the mattress had a lot of wear on it and should have been a lot more firm.
