The location was great, we felt safe walking in the area at night after the show we were there for. The room was clean and all of the staff we interacted with were very friendly and helpful.

Breakfast wasn't the best. The breakfast potatoes were very dry and personally would have preferred scrambled eggs over the egg patties.

One of the nicer Holiday Inn Express properties for service, cleanliness, and location. The staff here make this hotel stand out with simple courtesy and caring. The common space is inviting and flexible and they stock a number of convenience items in case you left something behind.

The downtown location uses parking offsite. We had several items to carry and the distance and stairs made it challenging to move our gear. The outside pool area is nice but it is really around back. Families with kids should watch since it very accessible from outside of the hotel.

The hotel is close to many restaurants. The location makes it easy to reach various points of interest by walking and by car. My room had a view of Pensacola bay which was nice. If you like baseball, there is a stadium that hosts the Double A affiliate for the Miami Marlins.

I wish the fitness center had a chin-up stand.

Cost discrepancy. The credit card was used although I planned an alternate form of payment. It was supposed to be used only to hold the room. The hotel staff states 1st day the CC is always billed which is not the terms from Booking.com when i got the room.

We had breakfast plans so we didn’t partake in the buffet style continental breakfast. We were made aware it was available to us. We did take advantage of the complimentary cookies, they were delicious. Our room was very nice and smelled clean. The bed and pillows were soft and comfy. Enjoyed the large shower. We were in walking distance to everywhere we wanted to go downtown.

I have no complaints

Staff was friendly and facility was super clean and spacious. Services was good and check in was fast and easy. The location was good and had good access to downtown area.

The breakfast was not good. The property also charged $25.00 when I checked in for a damage risk and they said it will be refundable, whcih was surprising to me.

Front desk was friendly! Beds slept good! Right beside the beach and downtown. Dove brands provider.

The furniture in the rooms needs updating. It’s not a refreshing smell once you walk in.

Great location down town, nice view out our window of the Bay and perfect morning breakfast.

The parking lot in the back needs updated and the tree limbs cut to the entrance.
