Pros:

Location. Free parking. Comfy room.

Cons:

The hotel was under construction during our stay, and the lobby was a mess. Breakfast was underwhelming. Very over-priced given the amenities.

For the cost of the room, I expected a clean room and a working coffee machine with coffee and fresh utensils. Sort of d
Pros:

Excellent location! Right in the heart of downtown.

Cons:

Coffee machine in the room was broken. I discovered that unfortunate fact at 4:00 am. The cleaning staff did not change out the coffee items (creamer/sugar/napkin/utensils) from the precious people or replenish the coffee.

Thumbs up from the USAF Pilot Training classs of 71-03 (1969-70)
Pros:

We held our 56-year USAF Pilot Training reunion and used the Holiday Inn Express as our "Base of Operation". A very convenient location with several restaurants, pubs, shopping, and museums within a short walking distance. Despite some renovation taking place on the first floor, all rooms were comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the fire pit where we would "Hangar Fly" the day's operations. and quiet. Some had a great view of Pensacola Bay and the shipyard. The staff was very helpful in setting up the meeting room for our gathering, and breakfast was excellent, although they had to work around the construction. Special thanks to Starla, the event coordinator.

When they finish the renovation it will be great.
Pros:

Location was great, breakfast was good and the staff was very nice.

Cons:

Property was under renovation. Very loud and messy. Ice machines on floors weren’t working and for what we paid it was not worth it.

Nice Stay
Pros:

We stayed for 2 nights at the hotel. The location can't be beat as you are in the main downtown area, and you can walk to everything within 5 or 10 minutes. The hotel was really nice, and the breakfast was really good. We liked our room as it was clean and had plenty of room. We didn't have any complaints during our stay.
