Stayed for 2 night Great location quiet , clean , the staff was soo friendly . The complimentary breakfast had plenty of options . My only complaint which isn't a huge deal breaker for us was that the pool isn't heated so the kiddos couldn't enjoy the pool during our visit but it looked very clean with plenty of seats and outdoor tables , also housekeeping never came in to refresh the room but not a huge deal either . Location was only 30 mins to the beach and all the beach attractions. Overall whenever im back in that area i would stay here again

This is very convenient, good parking - right next to Black Rifle Coffee and Peppers Mexican food restaurant (awesome by the way!) I just really enjoyed this stay here. We got extra towels on request. We don't like housekeeping during a stay, so they made it easy to clean and dispose of trash. It was clean, slept good, plenty of room, easy to get in and out of. I needed both the business center and the fitness center and they had both. The fitness center was very well stocked and the business center computer was slow - but I was so glad it was there!

When we checked in the front desk gals acted like we were bothering them. They were busy filing reservations when I called for pool towels and again they acted bothered. The room was pretty clean except for the shower floor looked like it needed a good scrub. The bed was awful. I woke up with a sore back from the dip in the mattress and the sheets were bally. We didn’t eat breakfast at the hotel because it’s the same thing they’ve had for years. We did grab a banana one morning and it was green. Parking was fine. We wouldn’t stay there again.

Functional hotel about 4 miles from the airport. Our standard king room was spacious with a minifridge and in-room safe. The air conditioning worked well and was easy to control. The bathroom only contained liquid soap & body wash so if you are old fashioned like myself and prefer a bar, bring your own Lol. The included buffet breakfast was very good.

Erica at the front desk went above and beyond to help us be the most comfortable and relaxed on our stay! Our flight was cancelled so we had to find a place to stay and found this hotel and called after and asked if there was anyway we could check in early since we had a 1.5 year old. She gave us lots of different options to accommodate! Once we arrived we were able to check in right away and get settled in!

I asked for a late check out (if possible) but was informed very quickly to call the front desk 1st thing in the morning to ask for it. He wasn’t willing to inquire at time of late check in.

Everything was fine except the housekeeping. I stayed a total of 5 days and my room was not cleaned on one of those days. When I notified the front desk the African American guy didn’t even apologize. He looked at me like what more did I want.Besides that, Angel went above and beyond to correct the situation. She is the reason I did not rate this low.

This location is great because of it being in between Fort Walton Beach and Destin both approximately 20 minutes away respectively. The rooms were very clean, the staff was helpful and friendly. The hotel is 2 minute walk from 2 of the best places to obtain coffee, The Coffee Shoppe and on the same side of the street is the Veteran owned Black Rifle Coffee Company. I can’t say enough great things about this Holiday Inn Express and Suites. Kudos to the entire staff. Very nice operation. We will definitely be back. Thank you to the natives of Niceville for allowing others to experience your town’s charm.

I like the location. I like the restaurant Pepper's next door. I was not happy about the limited choice of breakfast food. The 1st morning they said they'll have some pancakes mix and pastries the next morning. But the next morning they still was out of a lot of food. Walmart was right down the street. For the price I feel it should be a better variety of food.

Great staff and service. Super comfy beds. The only con is that the breakfast was honestly not quite up to normal HIEx standards. The French toast was really hard - like couldn't be cut with a plastic knife hard. And the famous cinnamon rolls were room temp. But we will definitely stay here again.
