This particular Holiday Inn Express on the Berlin Turnpike, is an absolute hidden gem. The rooms are clean and modern. The staff is super kind, courteous and helpful, they have a pool (indoor which my daughters love during the winter), and their breakfast is outstanding for a buffet style breakfast. I mean outstanding. Usually some kind of omelettes another choice of eggs, hashbrowns, sausage, there’s a pancake maker that makes them fresh by the push of a button (and they are delicious), and cinnamon buns to die for. If you get a chance to stay at this particular Holiday Inn express, do not pass it up. And they have the best rates in town for such a quality location. Looking forward to our next stay!

Due to a last-minute cancelation due to the impending winter snowstorm (announced 4PM 1/24) of the Sunday matches of the NIKE volleyball tournament in Hartford, we had to cancel our plans to stay overnight. No refund.
