Pool closes too early, some things in the room( toilet and bed) either made noises or (lamp) didn’t work right. Staff was pretty good and breakfast was good but no waffle maker. Good location too.

I love The Holiday Inn Express

I travel a lot and have learned that the HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS is the best hotel for the money. They have the best beds, showers, and breakfast buffet. Free parking, great amenities, locations, and I have never had an issue with staff or service. The East Tampa/ Ybor, staff was especially sweet and helpful. Thank you for another great night.

Hotel great - Neighborhood + Loiterers BAD.

You know you're in a bad area when the convenience store locks the beer cooler. Scary loiterers all over the area, not just the Wawa's. I drove 2 miles to buy a beer than literally walk to the Wawa's. Scary people always just hanging out there. Didn't go there for anything except gas. Scary neighborhood and I don't think it's anywhere near MLK Jr Blvd.

Great overall. This may be nitpicking, but the only thing that was an annoyance was that my room was the first one next to the side entrance, and the door would slam shut frequently and very loudly.
