The hotel was on "lockdown" starting at 9PM like you were in jail. I would not recommend anyone stay here but I was born and raised in Sylacauga and have family there. It is the only half way decent hotel in town. It used to be nice when it first opened but now, it is not. I probably will be staying there again for its convenience in location to family but if there was a better hotel in town, I would never stay at Holiday Inn Express Sylacauga again
