Breakfast was good, self service buffet. Chap on reception when we arrived was excellent. Booking.com had not booked the size room that we had asked for (and had confirmation for). After failing to get any response from their customer service, while waiting in reception, the chap arranged a bigger room for us at no extra charge. We would have had to sleep in the car without that. BTW it took 2 days for B.com to respond and then only after a nudge from us. Would happily stay here again despite the renovations that were going on.
Nothing it was good.

When we got to the room, we noticed that the shower curtin was missing and the staff was quick to get one up. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. The breakfast was good.
The parking was subpar, and at times, we thought we weren't going to be able to park at our hotel.

Loved the walk in shower, the breakfast was excellent, the beds were comfterble, the rooms were very nice. Very good stay. Sorry did not think to take pictures.
The area is a little older. It's about 1.3 miles from the beach. Close enough though. That's really all.

They staff was always super friendly and the location was perfect and close to where our football tournament was by.
I think the breakfast could be better. I’ve stayed at other holiday inn express before and had a much better selection.

location
the pillows are too soft and the unfairness of staff. we saw two dogs were checked in in the hotel so we assumed it is dog friendly and told our relatives to meet us there after taking their dog to the beach to dry up only to be turned around. I just hope they are fair and equal

used buses and trolley most of the time and uber sometimes..
the shower tab is located in the middle of the wall and touches/hits my hand when taking showers, which hurts. i think the tab is in an odd location on the shower wall.

Parking lot size and exit going out.
