I'll start with the positives: The food was delicious, the staff was wonderful, the room was clean and the bed was really comfy. Some notes: The $15 for parking is not listed anywhere on the website. That was an unexpected cost that I didn't mind paying in the grand scheme of things but would have liked to have known that when deciding on what hotel to stay at in the area. The internet was REALLY slow. I booked a hotel room for the purpose of having some "me time" with the goal of binge watching shows and getting a good night sleep. I could not watch any of my shows (or do any of my work) because the internet was so slow. The $50 holding fee got charged to my card twice. The person at the front desk just said "I'll have someone handle it Monday" but the charge is still on my card and I haven't heard back from anyone about it....

The entire staff, the janitors, the security, the rooms, the facilities and the breakfast is amazing! Everybody was so kind and so thoughtful! They even upgraded our room closer to the front of the lobby for easy access for my husband into a handicap room with his a hard time walking. So yes everything went super fantastic thank you Holiday Inn Express Walnut Creek we'll see you again on August 3rd!

Access off & on I-680 was great. Being on the ground floor, foot traffic and furniture movement in room above was noticeable, especially at 4 AM. For us senior folks, toilets with a higher seat level would be appreciated. The fruit droppings on the exterior walkways ought to be cleaned up. They are a hazard & mess to walk through. The Staff was great, friendly and efficient.

You get what you pay for. The carpeting throughout is in need of a deep cleaning. We were very concerned that the access door from the parking lot was not locked. Our room key was not necessary to open the door. Another guest mentioned it doesn’t lock. The bathtub in our room was not clean. The front desk accommodated us without question with a new room. In summary, the staff is courteous and responsive but the cleanliness and security were sorely lacking.
