Expedia said Breakfast was free. During check in we were also told breakfast was free. When we went to breakfast, we were asked to pay $17 a person or something similar, but as soon as we said we were told it was free breakfast and showed the Expedia statement, they had no issues and we got the free breakfast. They probably need to communicate properly about this.

I made a reservation for my parents for a roll in shower because my mother is in a wheelchair. When they arrived, they were told that a room like this was not available. How do you expect her to take a shower? We booked the specific shower for that reason. They eventually “found” a room with the roll in shower but not after them sitting there a while after a long day of traveling. I would expect better from this established hotel chain but Holiday Inn Express in general has about a 25 % rate with my mom and dads roll in shower rooms of getting it right. Maybe it’s time to find them a different chain……..
