Check in personnel were great! The room was relatively clean. There was tissue/toilet paper under the bathroom counter, on floor and something stuck to bottom of bathroom mirror (?toothpaste). Periodically in bed, would get slight odor...perhaps there had been a spill on carpet, but unsure. Unfortunately, I did not bring this to the attention to the front desk staff, as I was pressed for time.

Disliked: Cleanliness
When we first checked we were told it was a non smoking room and we would be charged if it smelled like smoke... Get to the room and it reeks of smoke. No thanks. They did switch us rooms no problem. Our bathroom wall had a leak behind the toilet which put nasty water on the floors. The bathroom is also extremely small. Can't even open it shut the door if you sit on the toilet. Overall it was okay but needs maintenance. The staff was friendly. Breakfast was okay.

One of the worst stays I’ve ever had. Beds were awful. Bathroom was so small you have to stand beside the toilet to be able to close the door. The sheets had stains on them. Will not stay there again. For that price I expect a LOT better.

One of the cleanest Holiday Inn’s I’ve ever stayed at! They take pride in their hotel, in every aspect! Breakfast spot on, no runny eggs, everything stocked. Would 100% stay here again!

Good stay, dated tub and shower

The location is good and the rooms and bathroom were clean. The shower head desperately needs an upgrade … low pressure and a stream that flowed too gently straight down … difficult to use and not satisfying — although I did get clean!
