They could not get the key to work on our unit so we could only have one (master?) key for 3 people. Pool bathroom toilet not flushing. Although they provided filtered water station I believe the filters needed changing as the water tasted very chlorinated. The staff was the friendliest and tried to help us as much as possible but the key was a maintenance issue that they could not fix.

I called for room service was put on hold. Found out my wife had already done the same thing. Was left on hold for long time. I hung they did not call me or wife back. The girl at checkin and at checkout were friendly. The breakfast area was open but when we started which was after 6:30 we were told its a holiday and we don't start till 7 and they made us leave the are and closed the doors and were not very friendly about it.

The property was nice but the tub/shower had mold in the corner of the tile. It was pretty significant. I took a picture and showed the front desk person and asked to be switched to another room. I can’t understand how the cleaning person could think that was ok to leave the tub and shower in that condition and think a guest would be ok with that. Maybe someone else would have been but I wasn’t. The front desk person was very helpful and apologetic. Thankfully there was another room available to move us to.

I had to request all new bedding. The duvet covered was dirty and stained and the sheets had a blood stain. AC was not working great. And there was never any hot water. For the price, I found this holiday inn to be lacking.
