Holiday Inn Express met all our needs.
Pros:

We arrived early during a nasty Nor’easter and it was nice to have somewhere to sit and watch Tv in the lobby. Room was very clean. Staff was very nice. Plenty of parking. Breakfast was good.

Cons:

I wish there was an exit to the side street. Taking a left out to the bypass is a challenge.

Pros:

Nice rooms, comfortable beds, great location. Breakfast good and everyone seemed very nice for thw most part. We would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

Left note for cleaning staff first day not to mess with the beds, just leave towels and wash cloths. Apparently didn't clean bathroom strange hairs laying in sink and toilet had a stain in boil. Didn't realize my fitted sheet had a stain until that night and that was bothersome would have thought stained sheets were not reused. Front desk attends to not acknowledge us as we came in and out.

Pros:

The staff was really friendly, Emily helped me with a issue, I was here for the mudbog at Dennis Anderson motor sport park, they canceled it due to the rain and I couldn't get into the room until 4pm. But once I called them, Emily worked on finding me a room. Because I had to go. But Emily looked into it and had one ready, so she really looked out for me.

This experience was exactly what I needed to reset after a great summer and heading into the fall.
Pros:

I stayed here previously which is why I returned. The location to restaurants, shopping and especially the beach were ideal. Also, the hotel has breakfast and a gym which is ideal for myself as I traveled alone.

Cons:

I have no complaints.
