Nice Property
We asked to be placed in a quiet room--away from the elevators and ice machines. That we got. We were however in a room that was exposed to freeway noise, a lot of back-up beeping from neighboring vehicles, and plumbing noise. Also, there was ample parking, but it cost us $15 for our one-night stay. The breakfast was ample and good.

impossibly loud and busy, the windows don't fully seal, the hotel caters to itinerant construction workers whose shifts begin in the middle of the night, there is a 2 inch gap at the base of the room's door allowing light and noise in, the walls are thin and the heat is not adequately controllable by individuals.

Very solid service throughout our stay. Nice clean room (however the fridge in the room was very noisy throughout the night). Convenient location. However, our initial check-in experience was terrible. Thom checked us in at 7:20 PM on Nov 29th. It took over 20 minutes to receive our room keys. He kept repeatedly questioning if my girlfriend and I were married and specifically mentioned there would be legality issues to stay here if we weren’t. We felt extremely uncomfortable. He also ignored us in the middle of checking us in to help another guest. The main reason I am not giving this hotel 5 stars is because of this awful unprofessional check-in experience.

The Holiday Inn Express in Walnut Creek is a nice hotel, and our third stay. We can walk to several restaurants, Walgreens & Starbucks. The rooms are clean, comfortable with an elongated chair, clothes closet, as well as other amenities. The breakfast is very good. I liked the egg, cheese & chiles petite omelette. Enjoyed our stay.
