The parking lot was terrible. I understand there was snow and such, however why was the parking lot not plowed. It limited the parking for guest and was very slippery to walk to the door.

Everything was great, check-in was easy. Breakfast would be better if it had some non dairy options for the coffee and more fruit or oatmeal type options. The eggs were good, and so was the bacon.

Very disappointed

I was told to call the front desk after booking if l need a connected room. Which l did and when l finally got here they said l should stay in a different room and leave my kids in a different room. After l have called them 3day ahead. I did enjoy my stay here.

Nice hotel, great for families

The hotel was nice we have stayed there in the past really love the pool for my grandkids unfortunately the pool was closed for majority of are stay which was the reason we picked that hotel. The hotel is also under renovation. But we will return I will just call before booking to make sure the pool will be open.

Called to cancel with no luck and app wouldnt let me contact the property. I physically couldnt make it due to the weather out of the interest of safety. Would be nice to get a refund as this is out of my hands

The first room we were given stunk of body odor. We were moved to the 3rd floor which happens to be directly under the floor where extensuve renovations start at 7am. So, at 7am, there was an insane amount of drilling, banging, stomping on the floors, etc. When i called the front desk, the receptionist said there is nothing she can do without authorization from the owner who cant be reached. We spent $200 on a room to be woken up at 7am. Disgraceful. At breakfast, we met another couple who were on the second floor, and they heard the construction, as well. It's impossible not to, power tools and hammers reverberate throughout the whole hotel. We dont expect a refund, because no one cares. The hotel has been paid, and the owner is absent, and the Holiday Inn couldnt care less. We will, though, get an 'I'm sorry to hear about your inconvenience, and we will work hard to improve your next stay.' As if that's good enough.

Not a fun experience!

The hotel was undergoing renovation- which was fine. Our room had been completed and we were first to stay in it. What was not fine was going to front desk to indicate that there was no plug in our jacuzzi tub as well as ?grout in the jets, some crumbled like gravel into tub and some we could not get off. They sent maintenance and housekeeping to install plug and clean it. So they both come to assess - then return a bit later (maintenance within minutes and housekeeping in 20mins. So for an hour - we sat uncomfortable in our space while they did their thing (note that housekeeper knocked then let herself in! What if I was changing?). We didn’t have much time to have jacuzzi but went to do so. Plug was not holding water. I go to front desk again. Maintenance comes back and says - I’ll get a new plug. It’s now 6:30pm - we have to leave at 7:30 for dinner reservations with friends. I note on way out that we still have no plug - nor have we heard from anyone. Get back 10:30pm - still nothing. I use a facecloth to try to plug it and then find that the taps are leaking bad - spilling water onto floor! I will also note that the tiles (although looked clean as they are white) were covered in drywall dust or something - discovered as we leaned over tub. After everything they offered us 50% off to stay 2nd night. So $600 for a 1 night experience….they moved our room and we found a bug in morning on jacuzzi that was not there before - phone said it was a flea!!!!
