My stay at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Chesapeake was a mixed bag. While the location was quietly tucked away from the street and the staff were friendly and professional, the hotel was undergoing renovations which detracted from the overall experience. The king suite I stayed in was spacious and comfortable, but some updates were needed, and certain amenities felt inadequate under the circumstances.
