Like the TARDIS, the hotel is effectively invisible from the road and much larger inside. It's a quiet retreat just ten steps from busy El Comino Real. The breakfast was excellent and the front staff were a joy to chat with in the early morning. My family and I will be back, I have recommended the hotel to my friends.

Holiday Inn Express was enough for a quick one night stay. Room was clean but first room had an odor that made us want to change rooms which staff promptly allowed us to do. HVAC was extremely loud which did not help my jet lag. Breakfast was good. Parking was safe and close.

There was some construction one night with someone running a jackhammer at midnight. Your management should coordinate with any group like that to prevent disturbing hotel guests. Also, I thought it was a big overpriced for value but I guess it is difficult finding rooms at that time

The room and the lobby had a really weird smell, kind of like sausage and dog. But other than that the rooms were pretty nice.

Great Stay
Overnight stay as I was in town for a concert. Front desk woman was wonderful & friendly. She even asked me and my friends how the concert was when we saw her during breakfast the next morning. Hotel was extremely clean and comfortable beds & the bathroom Dove products was a nice touch. Only slight negative is not many parking spaces and they’re very tight so if you have a large vehicle, you might have trouble getting in and out. But overall, very satisfied would definitely stay here again!

This is a smaller, quaint Holiday Inn Express with the same amenities as others including free breakfast, a smaller 24 hr gym, and there is access to a garden patio w gazebo during the day next to the ground parking lot. We booked 2 rooms w 2 queen beds, comfortable and clean rooms, and they accommodated us with a free crib. The rooms have the older ac wall unit, so it was a bit stuffy and hot at first but eventually cooled down. The bathroom was clean with Dove body/shampoo products. Overall, a nice, quick stay in the South Bay for 2 families with small children. The only complaint is there was a bit of a strong chemical smell in the lobby, maybe the brand of cleaning product they use, but otherwise no other issues.

The elevator for a 2 floor property was very slow...it took anywhere from 60s to 120s to show up in each floor and would take full 15s to close :-)
