With the exception of the toilet, I would give this hotel five stars.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent, staff laying out the food was very friendly and pleasant, and the food selection was good and plentiful, they never ran out of anything.

Cons:

The toilet in my room was awful; it was too low. I almost fell the first time I used it. It was a long drop, maybe it's because I'm a senior that it appeared to be so low. I had to turn sideways and hold on to the edge of the sink as I went down and came up to protect myself from falling.

Okay, but nothing to write home about.
Pros:

Location was great, just off of Interstate 5. Rooms on the east side (odd numbers) are quieter than the others.

Cons:

The place is dated, compared to other Holiday Inn Express. No remote checkout was particularly disappointing.

Pros:

Great value for money. We are a family of 5 and this location was the most cost effective place for us to book. The rooms are a very generous size where we didn't feel to tightly compact. Room consisted of 2 king size beds and a pull out sofa mattress which was perfect! The staff were all really friendly and gave us great local food recommendations. The breakfast was awesome! Plenty of choices for all of the family - would have been nice to see bacon on the menu even if just for one morning 😉 Would definitely stay again when we visit family next!

Cons:

The pool and 'spa' could use a little work. There was yellow caution tape around to the hot tub and the pool didn't look so great which we ultimately opted not to use! The sofa bed mattress and frame could do with replacing, it is super thin and the frame squeaked with every move. Some extra pillows outside of just one for the sofa bed would also be a great add!
