I was particularly disappointed with the location of the hotel. The advertisement suggested that the hotel was situated right next to the ocean on the boardwalk. However, upon arrival, I found that it was not where I had anticipated, which was disappointing for both me and my children. I believe it would be beneficial for potential customers if there were clearer distinctions among the various Holiday Inn Express locations in the area. With three to four properties under the same brand, it can be confusing for guests when selecting accommodations. For the record the the hotel that we stayed was standard accommodation nothing that stood out or anything particular about the hotel itself.

First time staying here and I would definitely recommend it. Staff were extra nice and accommodating. The beds are high but very comfortable. Didn’t eat at the free breakfast (I already made other plans) but I looked around and it had a great variety

Clean room, Comfortable Bed, and Abysmal service

The noise issue occurred the night of our stay. The property was apparently hosting the families participating in a young ladies cheer competition. Unfortunately, the rooms above us sounded like they were jumping, landing, and falling through the floor, well past midnight. My wife attempted to discuss this with the front desk upon check out and was told “you should ask for rooms on the top floor” so it would not be an issue. I did not believe that front desk staff person made that comment to my wife with a straight face, however they did. There was no attempt to even fake a level of concern, only that we should apparently know the property occupancy and who would be in the building with to request the top floor. This is after we had contact with the front desk staff the night we stayed to only be told that after 10 PM was quiet time and yet well after midnight, the behavior went unchanged and apparently unaddressed.

Bathroom was dirty and the freezer still had ice cream in it from the previous guests. The bathroom was in desperate need of a remodel and the tub was slippery.
