A Nice Place To Stay In Covington

Clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay. Breakfast was free and delicious! The pool is indoor and small. Convenient to the aquarium and the stadiums. It is a typical Holiday Inn Express but there's nothing wrong with that. Can't really think of anything negative other than the pool water temperature was a bit on the cool side.
