The staff at Holiday Inn Express were friendly and accomodating. My husband requires a handicapped accessible room and we were pleased with the size and comfort of the rooms. There is easy freeway access from the hotel, as well as dinning and shopping close by. It is a bit noisy due to freeway traffic, but otherwise comfortable. We would definitely stay again.
