Two years ago I stayed at the nearby Hampton. This time I decided to stay at the Holiday Inn Express, largely because it was a bit cheaper, and had free breakfast included. It was a mistake.
I don't want to rip on the hotel per se, but in truth I knew as soon as I entered it wasn't going to be a great time. The entire hotel smelled of moisture -- dampness -- and being a person with allergies, I knew it would be rough. There was so much moisture in the air that the bedding in the room was lightly damp and the hard surfaces were sticky with moisture. I turned on the air conditioner and turned it down low so it would run for a long time with the hope that it would dry out the room, but it didn't. The room was generally nice and clean, but the moisture made it an uncomfortable experience.
Breakfast the next morning wasn't much better. We came down an hour before breakfast closed, and many items were already gone. I got some coffee, and it tasted awful, so I got hot chocolate, and it also tasted awful. I got a bowl of cereal and a small milk, but when I poured the milk on my cereal, it was coagulated and did not resemble milk in any way. I ended up having only a small spoonful of eggs and a small yogurt. Next time I make the trip, I'm going back to the Hampton.
The workers were nice though, and I appreciated that.
