I have used HI Express several times lately and I found them to be consistently good. This one is like the rest, just a bit pricey given the location. True, there is a freight train line close to the building (across the highway) but I sleep like a log and it didn't bother me. The only thing that annoyed me is the fact that the clerk insisted that the beds were queen size when they were most clearly double size. I can tell the difference. Really.

Everything you would expect form brand new Holiday Express. Everything spotless clean and comfy, good breakfast, clean pool. Remember request room on the back side of a hotel, train noise is not a joke. We did that well in advance , hotel looked half empty at the time but they still ignored our request, be persistent and ask them at check in , we thought it probably would not be a big deal but it was, trains blow a whistle at a crossing in town.

The hotel was very nice, the room was very clean and comfortable and breakfest was good. We woke up 3 or 4 times during the night as a train across the street blew it's whistle while coming thru town.

I booked this room for my husband 5 months ago. I mentioned to the male clerk that he wanted a quiet room away from the pool if possible. The answer was "not a problem". This is the point when you think he would’ve mentioned they are located next to train tracks, which I was to find out later. He emailed a verification code to me.

I had to call and change the reservation for a smaller room 2 months before his planned trip. When I asked the female clerk for an updated email with the new lower rate I was told "oh we don't do that here"….whatever. When my Husband arrived he was told his room was in the back near the TRAIN TRACKS!? They said they couldn't offer another room but there were earplugs in the room. When he complained further he was told he had to request a room away from the tracks when he made his reservation and was told he could go down the street to another hotel. He declined her "offer" and kept his room. While he was outside the clerk came out and told him she had another room for him, he said she was much nicer then she had been a few minutes earlier. He called me while he was standing in front of the hotel, during our conversation a train went by and we couldn't hear each other because it was so loud. I hope the earplugs can help with the rumble you feel as a train goes by! I will update this after he has stayed in the room and let you know how often that train went by in the night.
