We stopped for the night since we were driving through. Everything was fine until we wanted to lock the door and found they were working on the door jambs. The lock bolt had a lot of play which was worry some and it was not mentioned by the front. It did lock but there was a lot of play and looked like it could be pried.

The hotel is situated in a great location—quiet, safe, and conveniently close to shopping and restaurants. The building has some decent upgrades and a lot of potential, but unfortunately, our experience was overshadowed by issues with cleanliness. Upon arrival, we were greeted by several carpet cleaning crews and their equipment stationed in the lobby, which felt unwelcoming. The elevator was gross with finger marks all over the stainless and the floor was dirty. Once we reached our room, we noticed a funky smell and found the space to be dusty. The sheets were stained, and overall, the room did not meet basic cleanliness standards. Had the elevator, lobby, and room been clean and fresh, our stay could have been much more enjoyable. While the property has its positives, including the location and some modern touches, the lack of attention to cleanliness made the experience feel average at best.

I think I stayed in a room where Joe Walsh previously stayed. He has accountants that pay for it all. Shower walls were dirty, and the light over the shower was not working. Lukewarm shower at best. The bathroom sink was cracked and the counter seems to be removed and repaired with 12 pounds of caulk that looks like it was squeezed out of a tootpate tube. The air conditioner was loud and never cooled the room off completely.

I have never complained about a hotel before. This place is disgusting. Even inside the elevator was disgusting. You could see how dirty it was like it had not been cleaned in a very long time. The walls were even disgusting. The bathroom was filthy. I didn’t even want to step on the floor of the bathroom barefoot. The shower walls were disgusting. I expect there to me a few spots missed when I go to a hotel, but this place should be ashamed of themselves as to how unclean it was. The bathroom also didn’t have a blow dryer which is standard to have one in Holiday Inns, and no bottles of water in the room to even purchase. I will never stay here again. It needs new management. Absolutely disgusting.

Because we had been in several hotels due to a family emergency in FL, we learned to check reviews, beds & overall cleanliness of room as soon as we walked in... Bed sheets had not been changed!; room smelled musty & moldy. Staff immediately moved us to another room & apologized which is why I gave 4 stars for staff but otherwise, I would not believe the “reviews” listed. Second room had residue in tub where it had not been properly cleaned & shower head, faucet were loose. Overall rating: poor. Chose this hotel based on reviews & because we had a wonderful experience in Jacksonville, FL at a HIE. The housekeeping staff at the FL HIE were even cleaning the walls of the elevators from top to bottom! Mopped cafe area everyday; cleaned ice makers & rooms everyday. Old is one thing, dirty is another.

I’m not sure if it was because our room was an Expedia blocked off room or the entire place is like this but the room wasn’t clean. Stained bedspread, mold in bathroom. Dirty tile and corners of floor in bathroom were not clean. The public areas were fine. Looked like a remodel job done poorly in our room.

Very clean, recently updated, big nice rooms with nice bedding. This is off a major street so it's quiet. Breakfast is "better than most hotel breakfasts" with a fun pancake maker for the kids. Only minor complaint, they seemed to have scrimped on the insulation from bathroom to room, and the door had a substantial gap to let light and potential noise from the hallway in. However, this was very quiet when we stayed so noise in the hallway wasn't a problem.

This property is very average, breakfast didn’t look very appetizing. The bathroom door handle was broken which caused the door to lock from outside at 4am an we had to call the front desk staff to open another room so that my daughter could use the restroom. The shower was broken which caused water to fly all over the bathroom causing a wet mess on the floor. When we woke up we noticed a hole in the ceiling in the corner next to window.

The landscaping outdoor spotlight shined right at our window in room 129 and was a real nuisance to sleep in even with the shade down. Would have requested to switch rooms but at 11pm didn’t want to deal with it.

This is an average hotel if you're just looking for a place to stop. The staff was very friendly. Room was clean and the bed was comfy. The bathroom was worn looking. The floor looked like it needed a good scrubbing and the shower head/pressure was not good. The hallway was freezing so we turned up the heat in our room. The heater woke me up every time it kicked on, and at one point there was a clicking noise like when you go up the hill of a roller coaster. I was disappointed not to sleep well, since the bed was really comfortable. For a one-night stay, it did the job. Just remember to travel with ear plugs!

Arrived at the hotel around 3:30pm to check in. When I arrived I was informed by the front desk that my room had been cancelled. I book this in advance and was never made aware that this was cancelled. There was a wedding party at the hotel so they gave my room away to another guest. I asked to speak with the manager but she had already left…the front desk called her but she just yelled at the employee on the phone. Not happy at all after driving several hours to get to this hotel. Extremely unprofessional!

My family of 5 booked this while traveling, the hotel room was fine. However, when we arrived at 2:30 a.m. we had to stand and wait at the front desk for nearly an hour before we could check in and get door keys. There was no one to be found in the building. Both myself, and my husband checked everywhere, even in the employee lounge/office areas. This was extremely frustrating due to the fact that we had an infant and two other small children who desperately wanted to go to sleep in a bed, and were crying. We even attempted to call the hotel multiple times while standing in the lobby, with no response each time. Another guest also came in to check in, and had to wait also. We paid $172 for one night, and we will not be returning due to the lack of service from the staff.

Facility is clean, the beds are comfortable, but the girl that checked us in had the attitude of someone who was past the point of caring about anything. No smile, no politeness, no warmth, nothing. Just the bare necessary questions to get you checked in and away from her desk. Like the property itself, but management needs to do something about the staff.

They did finally give us a room! The room was fine. The breakfast was awful. The whole hot food bar was cold like the warmers were not even turned on. There was no muffins or danishes, no yogurt and spoiled milk! I stay in a lot of Holiday Inns but this was below there standards.
