Room was big, very clean. Smelled a little musty. We were in the back building on the first floor. We heard all of the footsteps and running above our room. Digital TV didn’t carry Fox News. Breakfast was just ok.

Willie was incredible! My confirmation showed the correct dates (checking in 1/6 and checking out 1/7) but Holiday Inn Express had us arriving 1/7 and leaving 1/8. Gratefully Willie got us in a room and we are all set.
