This is a very well located property, unfortunately, the AC was not working for the hole hotel, this was very uncomfortable, and to make it worse there was no hot water in the shower. Will not be booking here again.

Overall, it was okay. We booked this hotel for one night as part of a cross country trip, and upon arrival we were told that there was no air conditioning in the rooms. There was a big disclaimer letting you know before you check in, however, we had booked it months prior and had just driven 4 hours in a storm to get there, so what were we going to do at that point. I was hoping for some sort of credit, but nothing was offered and the woman at the front desk wasn’t very friendly or apologetic. We made do but we had to borrow a fan and sleep with the door to the balcony open, which wasn’t ideal. Most Holiday Inns have free breakfast, but there was just coffee, which was kind of disappointing. On the plus side, it was clean and convenient to town and there is plenty of parking.

No airconditioning, the jacuzzi was cold everyday we tried to use it. They refused to provide an itemized billing invoice to me when I checked out. They said Expedial would provide. They have a pending charge of approximately $75.00 more than my reservation quote with Expedia. If the final charge is more I will be calling Expedia for a refund. Very disappointed this time at this Holiday Inn Resort

Had a horrible experience this past weekend, which was my birthday weekend. I had booked four rooms for my family. Air conditioning was not working all weekend. Deborah the front desk lady was nothing but rude to not just me and my husband, but but to another family asking about fans Never indicated if we would get compensated and she was rude and demeaning

Clearly a great property that is going downhill. My room had a broken shower. My friends room had a door that dragged on the flooring and made noise. It seemed like many of the rooms were out of commission due lack of investment to keep them in good condition.

Horrible stay.

It was such a bad experience.it advertised air conditioning but until we checked it we were told there was no ac .it too late to cancel it .the room was 82 until 8 pm we had to go buy a box fall to make the room bareball.there was only one ice machine working on the 2 nd floor.the pool was dirty .the jacuzzi had the jets on but the water too was cold .was told it was broken since last summer .the bed was hard so uncomfortable. Will definitely not recommend this place in the summer .or if you wanna use the pool or jacuzzi.

The AC was broken and the rooms were 84 degrees. When we asked the fron desk just gaslit us and said "we just didn't know how to work it... they told us to just open the windows and it will cool off at midnight." Staff was rude and did not care at all. Sign on the front desk said be back in 10 minutes for hours. Spa did not work, pool was filthy, fire doors were tied open with plastic trash bags, ice makers did not work. Stay away from this pit.

Properly is well maintained & clean, but the AC doesn’t actually do much. We turned it on in the afternoon & came back a few hours later & the room was still hot. Also, the pool looked like it hasn’t been cleaned in weeks.
