This hotel was great! The staff were very friendly and were a huge help when I asked them for assistance. The room was clean, and the cleaning staff came by to do a refresh everyday to keep things looking tidy. The included breakfast was a little sparce, but it was still filling nonetheless. I didn't get to use the pool or the gym, but I saw other residents enjoying themselves, and the areas looked clean and in working order when I passed them by.

Overall, the property was very good. Staff was friendly. Facility was clean. As with all "Breakfast Included" deals, there is much room for improvement. Replenishment of the breakfast items lagged behind the demand. Oatmeal was not labeled and could have been mistaken for grits. (I did.) Room was good, but hot water was in short supply. The best I could get for a shower was moderately warm. Would I stay there again? Probably.

A good compromise between price and quality. 15 min from colonial Williamsburg. Nice staff. The sink was not draining, but the problem was taking care of at the reception.

I haven’t stayed in a Holiday Inn Express for several years, and either the quality has gone downhill…or we ended up with a poorly run hotel. First it is listed as a nonsmoking hotel, but the elevator and hallways have strong marijuana odors. Our room was fair, and the bead were comfortable, but the refillable soap dispenser was broken and we only had 3 towels for 4 people. The breakfast buffet was very limited. We went during the middle of the breakfast time range and the eggs were empty, they had 4 cold sausages, and a long line to make 2 pancakes. There were no cinnamon buns, no yogurts or fruits, and the milk pitcher was empty. It was crowded, unappealing, and the workers were in no hurry to refill anything. We also wanted to let the kids swim for an hour before leaving to try to gain some kind of value from the stay, but the doors to the pool were broken and the staff couldn’t figure out how get them open. We decided to go ahead and check out and find some decent food. As we left the hotel, we discovered that multiple vehicles in the side parking lot closest to the tree line had been broken into overnight. Police were there and multiple people were cleaning up glass. I would never choose or recommend this hotel.

Didn’t like the fact that when I checked in they said I needed to be 21, when on Expedia it’s says 18, I then had to show her and felt like I was being accused of lying. Breakfast was terrible. Beds were comfy and it was in a convenient location.

Solo trip
It was fantastic, very comfortable, clean, quiet, staff really pleasant and helpful. The only snag was breakfast not what I’ve come to expect from an IHG hotel. Hot food was barely warm, no sweet rolls, I got the last plain cream cheese, yet there were plenty of bagels. Despite this, I will stay there again. It was a minor snag as there was still plenty of breakfast choices.

Room was very comfortable. Breakfast was a disappointment. Pancake machine not operating. No tea bags. No butter. No bacon. Attendent not helpful. Also only one ice machine working for all floors. Check in was easy.

Great Value
Check in was friendly and competent. I was pleased with the room - it had the cleanest, and and most spacious bathroom I have seen in a while. I also appreciated the safety features like handrails throughout. The bed and linenes were also a treat.
