"Amazing"

I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Express in Buford, South Carolina and from the moment I walked through the doors I was greeted so warmly it honestly felt like home. Sheriann at the front desk was amazing. She gave us great restaurant recommendations, was so friendly and she was especially sweet with my granddaughters. Tamika was also very nice and super informative. I've stayed at several Holiday Inn Express locations, but this one was by far the best. The room was spotless and everything felt clean and well cared for. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!
