The staff was wonderful and the room was very clean. The beds were very comfortable and the stay was very relaxing. Will be staying here again when in Mount Vernon!
According to family who live in the area, this place used to be rundown and unsafe. I found it to be well maintained, clean, and the breakfast was perfect.
Room was very clean, with friendly and helpful staff. A very pleasant stay.

Staff was great, friendly and helpful. Several in our party were disappointed that the pool was inoperable as they planned to use it for their early morning workout. I booked 3 rooms.
Clean rooms, very comfortable bed and a very pleasant staff. Morning breakfast was very good and no need to go anywhere else for breakfast. Stayed 5 days for Inkcarceration 25 music festival and would highly recommend.
Comfortable clean and friendly. Breakfast nice. Well managed

Room was way too hot overnight - I set the thermostat at 64 and it never went below 69. This would be ok if not for how how the comforters are. I woke up sweating twice and didn’t get great sleep before an important work day. There was also mold on the bathroom ceiling. However, the breakfast was great. (Wish they had hot sauce for the eggs though).
Great hotel and a very resonable price. clean and modern.

Like all the HI Express hotels the beds and sheets were top notch! The location is just on the outside of town but also near shopping and plenty of dining options.
