I like to stay here for the location, price, and amenities. My last night this time was HORRIBLE. For some reason the hotel lost power from about 1am-7am. Looked out my window and lights were on everywhere else. My room got really hot. There was no hot breakfast, no generator ever came on, and even after the power finally came on they still didn’t provide a hot breakfast, the AC took forever to come on, and the elevator was out for some time (and I was on top floor). It was MISERABLE.

It was wonderful with the exception of the fact that one of the only reasons I stayed there was because it had a swimming pool but the pool has been closed and they've been waiting for over a week after they've gotten it fixed for paperwork from the county and apparently the county hasn't given it to them I don't understand why!! Hopefully it will be open before I leave on the 22nd!! But otherwise my stay has been fantastic!!!

The pool heater was damaged and unusable. Everything else was fine, but I think they should notify us when any facility is out of service. If you rent a hotel with an indoor pool, I think it's so you can use it during the cold season.

Carpet in room was very stained and had a smell. Bathroom shower area had mold. Mold around grab bar, faucet and soap scum around soap dish. There was a smell in the room of over powering cleaner or a man’s colone. Have stayed there before and didn’t have this problem. Was disappointed.

Carpet was in terrible shape! Stained. Safe, as usual didn't open. Said battery low, and the woman at the desk didn't know how to change them. They are supposed to have them changed the next day, but that didn't happen. It's supposed to be a smoke free property, but people congregated outside the front door and on the sidewalk outside of rooms and had loud conversations late at night. Like they were hard of hearing. Not the greatest place to stay. Maybe I'll try somewhere else next time.

The first room we were given smelled horribly of smoke. The receptionist quickly remedied the problem and gave us another room. The faucet in the bathroom was completely disconnected from the vanity and the paint in the bathroom was peeling on the door frame and shower area. Breakfast was average. Would probably select a different hotel in the future.

This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. It was Memorial Day weekend and I wanted to use the pool - pool was out of service. I just has foot surgery and needed ice and water. The ice machjine on the first floor was out of service. You had to go up to the 3rd floor to get ice. There were roaches in the room (see picture). I want a FULL REFUND.

The service was wonderful, but unfortunately the hotel was poorly cleaned. We switched rooms because despite being a non-smoking facility, the room smelled like cigarettes. Our second room was better, but had a damp smell that needed airing out and then the bathroom was not cleaned well. If we wouldn’t have arrived so late, we would have found another hotel.

This is a "good enough" hotel for an overnight stay, or a couple days on business Pros: - Right off Rte 301, convenient to a good many things - Although a bit care worn, the hotel was clean - Not sure how full the hotel was, but it was quiet - no noise from adjoining rooms or the floor above - The front desk staff were nice, and the cleaning staff were polite - The free breakfast was decent, and the coffee was actually all right (I've not been impressed with most hotel coffee) Cons: - I couldn't help but feel that we were missing a lamp for the desk / corner floor lamp the way that the room was lit. - The mini fridge was non-functional or set very low, and there was no knob to adjust it. - The parking lot and access road are a bit rough, and could use re-paving

Never get room 113…You share a wall with the kitchen and you will be violently awoken by 5am. You also have a perfect funnel of sound coming from the front desk area so if anyone is socializing near the front it will sound like they are in your room

I have traveled a lot over the years for sporting events with our kids.So after arriving at the hotel w/the family (after several hours of driving/late) The clerk informed us we had no room (already paid for/ reserved in advance/ confirmed). I was told the hotel was booked and when we asked how that was possible, I was never given an answer. I was also told the hotel tried to call me "all day" but claimed I had left no valid phone number- in which I showed them my confirmation which clearly listed my phone number (& email). They "said" they had my # but there was an extra "0" at the beginning of the 10 digit # (still valid if you read like a normal #). But No attempt was made to call hotels.com to ask them to reach out to me, etc. We were told this happens 1x in a million, yet others from our sporting team also were left w/no room here having to find another place to stay. Hotels.com attempted to reach out to the hotel the same night to find out where the miscommunication had occurred (& to process our refund) and was hung up on several times. POOR SERVICE!. We ended up at Hampton Inn in Waldorf, MD who was also booked. BUT, when we told them what happened, they released one of their rooms for our family and accommodated us even though they were at max capacity as well. We had begged Holiday Inn to do this & they refused! We won't stay at Holiday Inn again & I'd recommend NOT staying at this location as they will give your reservation away and overbook the hotel.

The property has questionable characters hanging around the building and with small children I didn’t feel safe. After checkin our room was average but not what we anticipated. The pool was closed and you could see green algae it smelled disappointing and gross. Throughout the hotel we kept smelling drugs and the elevator smelled like a cloud of weed. The breakfast was good and staff was nice. We enjoyed the conversation with the breakfast attendant.
