We really enjoyed staying in this hotel! I chose this hotel because I knew the quality of Holiday Inn Express. I was not disappointed! The location is great, a short walk to the subway; food options are across from the street. Rooms are very clean, esp. the shower and the water stream!!! Breakfast was rich and diverse! The only thing is, but not the hotel’s fault, Orbitz reserved me small rooms around the elevator and corner rooms. I was told by Orbitz that I reserved a standard room and a room with a twin bed. However, the friendly hotel staff asked me to provide two email addresses and gave me a free upgrade of my rooms which are quiet and specious. I do not know what happened with Orbitz, but the outcome was good and we were very happy about our stay. I would highly recommend this hotel!!

Not good for everyone!

The place was cheap, and engaging with more customer oriented environments, such as free beer (though may not be good for everyone), free washer and dryer for its customer, an added benefit to the cheap price, breakfast is also included in the room price, not much choice to eat, the fresh noodle is a plus. It is very inconvenient in getting and out of the hotel, they have a gate but you must call to get it opened, which is big annoying thing to do, especially if you ride on taxes. It was mistake staying here for me. But enjoy the other stuff the hotel tried to compensate.

객실 매우 깨끗하고 직원분들의 친절이 좋았습니다. 아침 일찍 체크아웃해야해서 조식 못먹는다고 했더니 여러가지 음식이 담긴 도시락을 준비해줘서 너무 감사했습니다. 호텔도 지하철역에서 가까워서 여기저기 구경다니기 좋았습니다.
