Holiday Inn Express Page Hotel - Page 1

I had different expectations, because I worked for intercontinental hotel groups at the time.

This hotel made me feel practical: It is a normal express hotel.

Room was nice, clean, and spacious. But, the walls were very thin and we could hear all of the noises are neighbors made. At 3 AM, the person in the room above us came into his room with a *slam* of his door and then proceeded to turn the television set on at full blast. Breakfast was ok, but not as good as many other Holiday Inn Expresses.

Despite a few minor annoyances, such as the doors slamming loudly shut, busloads of tourists cackling in the lobby, and a depressingly small pool, the hotel offers a large clean room which I was able to obtain at an excellent price of $56.00/night during the first week of October. There is also free internet in the lobby. The breakfast is satisfactory if you just want a quick bite of bread, cereal, cinnamon bun, or a hard boiled egg.

It was an OK hotel, but disappointing for a Holiday Inn Express. The front desk staff was very casual, chatting to each other rather than checking us in, another time they kept on talking on the phone to a boyfriend and ignoring customers.

The hotel has a large lobby, but a cold atmosphere. The hallways are wide, and again, left us with a cold, barren feeling. The room was a good size with two queens. For so much available space in the room, the bathroom was very small, the door nearly hits you as you sit. Were given a room on the main floor, but there was a bus parked outside the window and it started up at 5 am.

We were there at the end of April, a lovely day, the temperature was 90, but the pool was closed and looked disgusting. Their breakfast was poorly set out and unimpressive. We were told that the breakfast buffet was at 6:30, but they opened up for a bus group before 6. The fresh warn cinnamon buns that I had enjoyed at other HI Express were finally put out a 6:55 and were cold.

The best part was the Mexican restaurant about a block away.

We were given a cheap rate when booking in advance, but the Courtyard looked so very much better. We would not stay here again.
