Great welcome from Laura at check in. Efficient and quick too. Room was spacious, sparkly clean and had good bedding and towels. Bed was very comfortable and hotel was quiet. You didn't hear noises from outside which was surprising as it is located on a busy road, although it is set back. Internet worked great as did TV. Breakfast area was spacious and clean with lots of nice choices of foods. Turkey sausage, make your own pancakes, hot cinnamon buns. I will certainly return to this hotel when I am in the area again. Nice job Holiday Inn Express Matthews.
