It was a nice hotel to stay we part from Miami to New Orleans along the coast . We stay at this hotel it was very clean , it has jacuzzi and aheat pool ideal for the weather. The rooms were very well equiped and the breakfast as always in all Holiday Inn express was perfect, specally the cinnamon rolls. The hotel staff were all very kind and helpfull

The staff was extremely polite. The rooms were very clean. There were tons of local restaurants in the commuting area.

I had a family event to attend in Hudson Florida. I booked an advanced purchase rate, which is non-refundable, which was fine with me, as I've never had a problem with Holiday Inn. Well, my first night there, I woke up the next morning with a couple of bug bites on my arm and neck, I inspected the bed and didn't see anything, so I assumed it was a mosquito bite. I didn't want to fall into the bedbug hype, because I know not every bite in a bedroom, comes from a bedbug. Well, the second night, because my room had 2 Queen beds, I decided to sleep in the other bed, just in case there was something wrong with the other bed. I inspected the bed again, and saw nothing. That was a mistake to sleep in the other bed, as that bed must have been ground zero. I woke up 2 1/2 hrs later with pain on my right hand, and saw multiple bites on the back of my hand, my right arm, my left arm, more on the back of my neck, and one on my lower back. I searched the bed again, still didn't see anything, but couldn't get back to sleep. 20 mins later, I feel a crawling sensation on my body, and throw off the covers to see a black bug the size of my pinky nail. Needless to say, even though it was midnight, and I had 4 hr drive back home, I left right there and then after telling and showing the hotel my bites. Also, the hotel refunded my non-refundable rate the next day without further comment from me, so that should tell you the validity of not staying there.

Previous reviews are right on about the cleanliness of the hotel, our room was spotless and very roomy. Other positives, the complimentary breakfast was pretty good, fresh-baked cookies in the lobby everyday and the computers with free Internet access came in handy when we needed to locate a restaurant in Clearwater Beach. Only two negatives, but not dealbreakers by any means: no towelbars in the bathroom and there was only one working piece of equipment in the fitness center. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
