I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn and found it to be an average experience overall. The cleanliness of the hotel was decent, but nothing exceptional. While the customer service was adequate, it didn't go above and beyond expectations. One highlight of the hotel's location is its proximity to a good Italian restaurant and a Costco with gas stations, which was convenient for dining and fueling up. Additionally, the short drive to the Strong Museum was a plus for those interested in exploring local attractions. The hotel is situated in a quiet and safe area, providing a sense of security during the stay. However, the pool was average at best, and the dated decor throughout the hotel left much to be desired. The carpet, floors, and elevator spaces could use more attention to detail, as surfaces appeared to need better wiping down. In conclusion, while the Holiday Inn offers a decent stay with some convenient amenities nearby and the assurance of being in a quiet and safe area, it falls short in terms of cleanliness and attention to detail in its upkeep.

Upon arrival after check in time our room was not ready with the reason being given in needed to be cleaned still. We were informed that it would be a 15-20 minute wait. Nothing offered for the inconvenience but hotels.com customer service was amazing and gave extra rewards for the inconvenience. Sadly even with the wait the room was still dirty. There was food on the floor and the sheets were stained. It's unfortunately as it was a fairly nice looking room.
