“No Complaints”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 26, 2013

Nicely updated hotel. Good breakfast. Nice large size room and very clean. We came Presidens day and did not make reservations until last minute [forgot it was long weekend!] No king available, but the two queen bed room was large and the beds were very comfortable. Did not have a view because of the late booking, but most of the time was spent sight seeing, so it didn't matter that much. A little ways from downtown, but put us closed to the restaurants in the bay and the town of Mendocino. Did not use pool or spa, but looked nice.

Room Tip: Stayed on 2nd floor, a little sound above, but not annoying, still probably would have taken 3rd flo...

“Nice pet-friendly hotel with complimentary breakfast”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 20, 2013

We stayed here for President's weekend. It is a nice hotel. It is pet friendly, nicely updated, complimentary breakfast and an indoor pool with a hot tub. It is close to everything in Fort Bragg: Glass Beach, downtown shops and restaurants (Cowlick's ice cream is yummy!), MacKerricher Park (nice bike ride along coast and tide pools to explore), and an easy drive to downtown Mendocino. Didn't see any whales this time so I guess we'll have to come back again. Would probably stay here again!

Room Tip: Not all view rooms have the best view to the ocean. Might want to check with staff.

“Duncan's glass beach visit”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 3, 2013

This is a nice hotel, off the beach so priced resonably for sight seeing.

Heated pool, nice....rooms nice; we had a great view out the back windows.

Centrally located for getting out and seeing the local sites, awesome!

Room Tip: See if you can get a room with a view

“January in Fort Bragg/Mendocino”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 26, 2013

Had a wonderful time in Fort Bragg! the Holiday Inn Express is easy to find and well located in relation to the downtown, beaches, and points of interest. The hotel is nice. If you are familiar with HIE, they offer a continental breakfast. The dinning area was a little small for the number of people having breakfast, but the selection of food was nice and the service at the hotel overall was fantastic! Very friendly and courteous. We had booked a room with a view through Orbitz. We got a room on the first floor and even in the dark of night there was clearly no view.... they changed us to 205 on the second floor immediately. The view is pretty, but it is trees, not the ocean. The room is spacious with two queen beds. Two adults and one teenage girl were very comfortable. The room was very clean and had all the usual amenities. We particularly loved that the little refrigerator also had a freezer so we could re-freeze our cold packs for the travel cooler. Would have liked a safe. A selling point for the hotel for us was the indoor swimming pool (also has a spa). It is not huge but the water was wonderfully warm (if a little over-chlorinated) and all the children swimming - including our teenager and her father - had a wonderful time. It was very cold out - icy - but the trip to the pool was only a few outdoor steps because there is an interior stairway for access. Felt completely safe in the hotel and parking lot. A number of international guests. If you go, don't miss nearby Glass Beach! Very interesting. Would definitely stay here again.

“Decent hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 22, 2013

It's a clean reasonably new hotel and the staff are very friendly. The breakfast was pretty good. We did not use the pool but it seemed like it was popular with a lot of the families. The only problem we had was that our TV reception was fuzzy and the front desk could not fix the problem. We were not offered a new room because we were told the problem is with the cable service so it was a problem in all of the rooms. As noted in other reviews, the rooms don't have a view. The price is not cheap but it was not ridiculously priced either.
