Rooms smelled like mildew. Thermastat did not work. They never came and looked at it when we complained. Shower head was broken. We had to hold it to shower. Housekeeping was rude. We came in one night and the front desk girl had her head down sleep. Breakfast was terrible. We asked to check out after day 2 because we couldnt take it anymore but they refused to refund us so we just left. I don’t recommend them.

Front desk attendant and overall property was great. The only downside was the breakfast, the staff was just not able to have enough of food in the warmers. Just not organized enough but everything else was great..

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Upon arrival, I inspected the beds and both were littered with hair(s) and crumbs. It was quite obvious the linens/bedding had not been changed prior to my arrival. I took numerous photos and videos of such and notified Christian, front office manager. He asked him to please come view the room with me but he refused and said I would have to contact Expedia, third party, in order to inquire about a refund. He stated he could've processed a full refund had the room been booked directly through Holiday Inn or if I had been a rewards member.
