In the United States, if you book a room with your fiancé and forget to put 2 guest, a True Holiday Inn will not charge you extra for your guest/Fiancé, well these unprofessional people will charge you for the guest, it’s all a way to make more money, although the under paid employees in reception are not at fault it’s whomever the owners are. Don’t forget to put 2 guest or you’ll be out of $38.00

Great Location, nice rooftop pool & bar
Holiday Inn Express is in a great location, walking distance to the port & walled city. Plenty of restaurants in the area, close to Bocagrande shopping. Staff were all really nice and helpful. Only negative thing is the musty smell, not sure if it's on every level, but they need to try to get rid of that.
