I can't say that something stood out, because everything is first class. I didn't use the pool or the fitness center, but I will most definitely stay here again when I'm in Alpharetta. The room was sparking clean, especially the bathroom, the bed was comfortable, and the pillows are AMAZING! Perhaps I should "complain" that I didn't want to get up in the morning because the pillows were so comfortable. Everyone on staff I met is above-average kind and courteous, especially Joanne at the front desk. Great breakfast set-up. And all this at a very reasonable Holiday Inn Express rate. I'd give it six stars if I could.
