Definitely not the cleanest Holiday Inn Express that we have been too. I went in thinking "Ohh we are staying riverfront". We saw more cars above us then we did views of the river. The area it is located in isnt the safest or cleanest. Definately dont reccomend staying there again!

Check in was easy. Clare and Alexis were very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. We were there for 5 nights and the entire staff was very helpful. Claudia, that was the breakfast lady, was very friendly and said good morning to us every morning. She did a great job keeping the food filled and the choices were very good. Thank you to all the staff for making this stay great.
