We have stayed at this Holiday Inn location about 8 or 9 times in the past on our trips down south. We always have had a great experience. This visit we used out Holiday Inn points for our room. The room was next to the vending and ice machines and besides the noise from the machines, we could hear a... More

I am generally a fan of Holiday Inn Expresses as they typically offer good value. Some are better than others, however. This location was above average in that regard. The property was easy to find as it was directly off the exit from I-95. The building is located in a modest neighborhood unfortunately next to an unattractive lot. But the... More

The cancellation of a hearing nearby left me with a prepaid hotel room and the choice of either forfeiting some money or turning the experience into a nice overnight get away in the Wilmington area. So, deciding to make some lemonade, we checked into the HIE&S in Wilmington and found it very conveniently located, with comfortably large reception and breakfast... More

I am extremely picky when it comes to hotels, we have switched rooms and hotels several times because rooms smelled bad or were not clean to my standards. This hotel was extremely clean and had great amenities for the cost. The beds could've been more comfortable, the tv remote could've worked better but for me cleanliness trumps all, and this... More

First time at this Holiday Inn Express. Good location close to highway but still quiet. Good staff, very good room, great complimentary breakfast. Only down-side was inflated price because of NCAA tourney.
