Holiday Inn Express San Pablo - Richmond Area by IHG

There was a Denny's across the street and several diverse ethnic eateries in the area. I would suggest eating at one of these places. Mexican, Chinese, American Denny's is open 24 hours. I liked the hotel microwave and fridge. The hotel has guest laundry facilities for $2.75. You can pay coins or by QR code. The Casino and the Food Maxx Supermarket is just a couple of blocks on San Pablo Ave, like 2 blocks on the main street. The hotel is next to and behind a mini mall with banks, Popeye's a Chinese buffet place, Saver's, Dollar Tree. Jack-in the Box is a few feet in front of the hotel. I lost my receipt, and I called back and they immediately emailed a receipt for the room stay, but not the refundable deposit.

I skipped the hotel breakfast buffet, even though you pay for it with your booking. I would rather eat out. You have a better selection and better food. If you just wanted a bagel or a mini muffin and don't want to use the Keurig in your room to make your own coffee, then it is ok. They had a bowl of large oranges that looked withered and should have been thrown out. They took payment at the property for everything. I would have liked to have paid upfront at least a week ahead of time so that i would have known a=exactly ahead of time I had for spending money. I like to budget things right down to the penny.

good

Cleanliness and location. The staff was great

Tv channel selections were very limited.

Great breakfast, convenient parking

The room was very spacious, had a clean smell to it and was in a great location with shops and food around the corner. At the time the hotel was under construction so there were so issues finding parking but overall the room and location was clean. For $500 we would have loved to find parking easier and a hot breakfast but it did its job and we got to where we needed to be and had comfortable sleep.

Check in was very fast & easy. The room was clean & quiet. Parking was great.
