Yellow Lab's Rule Posted October 28, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Any places within walking distance to eat lunch and grab last min supplies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesea4me Posted October 28, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Yes - across the street is a strip mall with Big Lots, a supermarket, liquor store as well as a Wendy's, McDonald's and Dunkin Donuts. Just be careful crossing the street - it's dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just be careful crossing the street - it's dangerous. There is also a nice Thai in the strip mall and on the same side of the road as the hotel going on your right when you exit a good German restaurant about 5-7 minutes walking distance. It can be a little noisy if you like quiet moments around the pool during the day. Josée Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Lab's Rule Posted October 30, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted October 30, 2014 We actually booked this Holiday Inn Express over the one on 17th because of the pool. The one on 17th doesn't have a pool. Is the pool not nice? The last couple of day's I have been thinking about canceling our reservation and going to the Embassy Suites on 17th street. The price of the Embassy Suites has come down dramatically and now it's only about $30 more than then the Holiday. From what I have been reading everyone loves the Embassy. Would you recommend I make the switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're trying the Holiday Inn Express on 17th next winter knowing that we won't have a pool, but there'so many things to do in this area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you recommend I make the switch? Yes, I would make the switch to ES for $30 difference. It's a grander property and there is much more around there. I think the pool area has more ambiance than HIE. The breakfast is better too, and there is a free manager's happy hour reception each evening. Yes!:) Edited October 30, 2014 by royalcruz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
