Thank you for being the accommodation of the best trip I’ve ever experienced.
Pros:

The breakfast was amazing. Speaking as someone who flew over for the first time to the US. I may be biased as it was all new and exciting. But the food was delicious, staff kept everything topped up and clean. Not an issue at all. Amazing

Cons:

I genuinely couldn’t think of anything. The stay was absolutely perfect. I visited as a solo 20year old first time traveler for a concert. I couldn’t have felt safer. In the area and in the hotel. The staff were great. Room was incredible. So clean, massive. Amazing bathroom which was perfect for getting ready for the concert. So lovely bumping into the other twenty one pilots fans at the hotel too the morning after. Was only in America for 2 days and spent all nights at the hotel and it was perfect. Hats off to you guys

It's a nice city and I definitely will stay again at the Holiday Inn Express
Pros:

Location was perfect. I always loved Holiday Inn. Breakfast was awesome, so much variety. The Staff here is great and so is the facility. Will definitely stay here again when I return to Milwaukee. Forgot to mention the room was cool, even a hair dryer in bathroom. Also loved the chaise to recline on . Got to watch MLB on the TV and thankful for fridge and microwave. Due to dietary rest I ate my own food mostly while I was here.

Cons:

Have no complaints about the hotel. Great place!I

It was fine, nothing special. Wouldn’t be my first choice or second
Pros:

It had a good breakfast

Cons:

Hallways were dirty, our hotel bathroom can tell the floor hadn’t been cleaned in a while and we were placed in room right by elevator so heard people all night

Pros:

Staff was super helpful allowing a slightly early check-in after day of flight delays and cancellations. Pointed out free street parking and the breakfast offered was quite fulfilling.
