Ice machine was broken. We asked for a later check out because of over sleeping and were told they could give us 15 minutes do to other late check outs, as we were checking out noticed we were the only car left in parking lot. Apparently the costumer comes after the cleaning crew. Js

We thought we were going to miss the midnight check in deadline due to an accident on the highway, we did call though and let them know and the desk attendant was very nice and understanding and was going to let the oncoming attendant know. Luckily we made it at 10:30. After our the nice check in experience the room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast which we had all 4 days of our stay was very good and plentiful every time. They were pretty full due to a festival in town, so i think they did a wonderful job everything was clean fresh food available at breakfast. The hotel and grounds very clean nice parking felt very safe. I would definitely stay there again. I was traveling with my adult son.

I always thought Holiday Inns were nicer, but for the price of this hotel I could get a cheaper one that is better. I was honestly surprised on how small the room was. It was not cleaned very well. Especially around the microwave and the coffee maker looked like it had not ever been cleaned. The was a blood splat in the tub which was kinda gross. The pool was extremely small so my kids didnt even want to swim, which was why we chose this hotel in the first place. We almost just asked for a refund and found something else but figured they wouldnt give it to us anyways. They dont let you use the extra side doors at night to get into the hotel and the parking lot filled up quick at night, so we had to park all the way in the back and walk around to the front door. The sheets were clean and the bed was comfortable at least. They also provide a really good breakfast.

Breakfast options were plentiful and tasted good. Room was clean and comfortable with plenty of space to put things and plenty of easy to reach outlets for chargers etc. Staff was kind. Pool would have been small if there were other guests in there but we went at a time where no one else joined us and we were fine. Overall pleased.

Overall it was ok. BUT, our room smelled like cigarettes. Someone was clearly smoking in there recently. We asked to move if available and they were going to try to accommodate, but the front staff needed to contact someone else and we had to leave - so we just stayed. Discount would have been a nice gesture.

The only complaint that I have regarding the room was the lack of towel hooks to put your used towels. Also, it wouldn't hurt to have slightly bigger trash can in the room.

Our stay was good except the air in the room felt very damp. We had a musty smell that was pretty strong. Also the a/c only got the room cold right in front of the unit. The rest of the room was so hot! The person who slept on the bed next to the a/c unit was freezing while the ones who slept in the bed next to that one was so hot! Then by the couch bed was even worse.

First, the hotel was immediately adjacent to the interstate and our room was VERY loud with the traffic. Second, we had a king bed, which had been made with a queen size fitted sheet, which only wadded up immediately upon getting into the bed and was uncomfortable all night. Third, it was DARK in the bathroom. There were lights on either side of the mirror, but were so dim, there was not enough light to see to shave. On a positive note, breakfast was very good.

Kelsey was so nice and pleasant checking us in. I had reservations for two queen beds. Upon arrival to the room it was only one king bed. When I went back to the front desk to ask about the mix up, Kelsey had to call the GM. The GM had apparently changed our room to one king but I was not notified and they had no other queen rooms available. They called surrounding properties and found nothing else. Kelsey handled it very well and apologized for not being made aware ahead of time. They did offer a discount for the inconvenience, so I am waiting on that. Otherwise, it was a nice stay. Bailey at check out was very nice and the complimentary breakfast was very good as well as the staff.

The staff was excellent and very accommodating. The beds were great and very comfortable, and I wish I had checked the mattress so I could buy one. We were there for the Derby and we liked being on the outskirts but not much around for food. The gift shop was sparse so we had to walk to the gas station down the street, but it wasn't a big deal. The bathroom countertops could have been bigger. Large bathrooms, but little counter space for all your toiletries. In short, make sure you stock up before arriving and be prepared to get a rental car or uber anywhere you need to go.
