Decent option when my usual hotel is booked however the entire facility needs a solid deep clean. The rooms are decent aside from the dirty carpet but the hallways and common areas are dated and dirty. The best thing I can say is that the staff is incredibly kind and accommodating.

Check in was quick and easy. I had booked through Expedia to get a good rate for 2 nights stay. We were visiting family that lived nearby, making it easy to see all of them. There was a shortage of maids, so we didn't get our trash emptied. But that would not prevent me from staying there again.

We walked into our assigned room to find the bed not made and stuff all over the bathroom floor, and it smelled. Got assigned a new room and the TV did not work or the lamp. Room and hotel seemed dirty/smelly overall. Staff was very nice and friendly. Location was convenient but didn’t seem like a nice area.

This was by far the worst Holiday Inn I’ve ever stayed in! Needs major renovations!! The hallways smelled mushy. There was mold on the bottom of the shower curtain, the faucet in the shower was coming off the wall along with the shower curtain! The advertising of the facility said there was laundry accommodations and when asking the front desk where the laundry was we were told there was not laundry accommodations and the advertising is incorrect! Never staying at a holiday Inn again!! Our next night we stayed elsewhere!!

Good place to stay with minor issues
One towel was dirty but had others to use. There didn't seem to be any bath soap. The front desk personnel was professional and friendly. It was an older property but seem to be clean and well kept. The widow shades did not close all the way. I was on the 3rd floor so not to big of an issue but if other rooms had this problem on lower floors, it is unacceptable. I used the ice container to close the curtains completely. I will probably stay here again. These are minor issues that can be corrected easily.

Great Experience!
The hotel was clean and comfortable. It's older and in need of renovations, but all factors that were within the control of the hotel were excellent. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. I was especially impressed that when my daughter left her Sony headphones in the room and we called after checkout, the staff checked the room, found them, called us back right away, and set them aside for us to pick up. Great job, Holiday Inn. We will be back and recommend this hotel others.
