We ended staying here last minute on the way to Florida. We were pleasantly surprised. The front staff was very nice. The breakfast staff in the morning were also very helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. My wife actually loved the beds. The morning breakfast bar was very good, with pancakes, eggs and a big assortment of other things.... More

Stayed here one night for business and the staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and professional. Everyone I encountered that worked here was nice. The room was very spacious and the bed was comfortable (King-Executive room) however the room had a terrible musty smell (thank goodness for the traveling candle). The wireless connection in the room was extremely slow so it... More

I recently spent 2 nights at the HIE in Athens and found the property to be OK but not great. It was disappointing to find that the pool was closed due to water filtration problems for the 2 days I was there. The room was clean and well maintained but the curtains had a nasty brown water stain along the... More

Was in town to see family for a long weekend. Choose the HIE (Holiday Inn Express) due to the indoor pool and the free breakfast. Most of the HIE was nice and clean. Bed was not hard but not soft. I have had rock hard in high level hotels. Overall the rooms are good. The pool was great. Nice and... More

Stopped overnight on the way to Florida. We like HI Express and this one is typical...maybe a little better than most. Clean and comfortable. Good breakfast too. More

This is a perfectly acceptable property, though something is strange about it. When I stayed there, several vehicles were thoroughly robbed. They would have needed a truck to haul away all the goods they pilfered. No one saw anything, though the evhicles were parked underneath the lights in the parking lot. One of the people robbed during our stay had... More

This was strictly to be a quick one night stay with a late arrival. Well, our arrival became very late and they had released our room (even though guaranteed) some sort of computer glitch, charged me for it and I had to be charged for another night but they immediately got us settled in a room and advised me to...
