Breakfast was great with many options to choose from, the indoor pool and fitness center were closed due to maintenance and the website did not specify that so i was a little bummed out about that however overall we enjoyed our stay.

Looks like it was recently econo lodge or something similar. Not quite at Holiday Inn standards. Smells musty and just not the average Holiday Inn. It wasn’t super bad but not super good. Noisy place. I would not stay at this Holiday Inn again Pool wasn’t available but hotels.com didn’t advise me when I booked. The coffee was great.

The hotel was in a convenient location but was under construction. We did not know this and booked it for its indoor pool which was closed. Elevator worked sometimes and not other times during our stay. Staff was nice. Didn’t eat the breakfast so I can’t rate that. Perhaps when not under construction it may be nice but guests should be warned before booking about things like this.

Not in the best part of town, and the employees were pretty slow. The breakfast was good and it was much safer than a hotel I had to leave. The suburban suites was UNSAFE so if you are also looking at that one, DO NOT.

Everything was super clean and the attention was amazing. We did have an issue with a cricket inside the AC unit and we had no way of getting it out or getting it to be quiet so it was a rough nights sleep haha other than that the stay was amazing and we really enjoyed all of the breakfast options that were offered!

When I walked in the room, the carpet fresh was so strong, when the carpet fresh scent wore off, the room had a musty old smell, probably from the old carpet that was stained and dingy. Had a bath towel with faint stains on it. I did not say anything to anyone, only stayed one night. The bed was clean and comfortable.

Room smelled like mildew and chemicals. Upon request, staff moved me to another room that didn't smell 'as bad' but still smelled. Two TVs in a suite, but only one remote that only worked the TV in bedroom. No coat hangers. Dirty walls, stained lampshade. Not what I expected. Left early for a different hotel at my cost and no refund. Not happy.
