Worst holiday inn express experience I’ve ever had
Cons:

It was very old and run down. Just beat up. And the area of town was not good. We kept checking on our car though the night. However, they did have a night security guard.

Undeserving of existing rating
Pros:

We asked that toilet be recleaned since black mold could be seen in top of bowl. Were told it was done while out to eat, no evidence of cleaning was seen. General cleanliness was just average in general. Breakfast was average at best. Very dissappointed because we picked it based on the 4.7 rating.

I was close enough to get to the hospital to visit family member quickly. Hotel staff was great.
Pros:

The breakfast was the best I've ever had at a hotel. The variety was great and so were the flavors.

Cons:

Everything was great but the bottled drink could have been less expensive.
