Pros:

It was nice, clean and comfortable.
It was spacious also.

Cons:

We called the receptionist for extra towels and they took so long to bring them we had to call back. The receptionist said no one would be available to bring it to us. She never called us to let us know that. Then she had an attitude when we went down stairs to pick up the towels.

Suggestion: to have non-slip mats for the showers and longer shower curtains.

Cons:

The Television station for CNN had no volume, there was no sound. We told the people at the desk after the first day, and no resolve.
There were guests, lacrosse teams staying at the hotel and the girls were running the halls until 12:30 one night, and 11:30 the second night. No security guard monitoring. We could not sleep.

Pros:

Bed was very comfortable. Room very clean. Breakfast was standard Holiday Inn Express standards, so decent choices for food. A few eating options nearby. Grocery store next door for snacks and drinks for the evening. Gym is ok, not very big. Big enough for 2 people comfortably to work out simultaneously. Pool is small, but great size for kids to play in. There were pool toys for kids as well. Staff were friendly at the front desk. Ample free parking on site which is nice.

Cons:

Breakfast breads need to be rotated and checked frequently. I found 2 moldy english muffins. TV's are very old, terrible colour and dated. I had to show the staff how to tune my TV once they gave me access to settings.
More dairy free options for breakfast would be nice. Staff didn't know dietary/allergen information for breakfast items. Allergy guide would be nice for breakfast.
