We booked this hotel specifically for the pool and spa tub advertised as we were on a long road trip and needed a place where the kids could “get their wiggles out”. When we arrived not only did they not have a hot tub, the pool was closed because reportedly they didn’t have licensure for it. I feel like we just paid for amenities they didn’t have and would’ve stayed elsewhere had I known. At the very least we should’ve been offered a discount.

Not a great checkin process. A member of my party tried to use the card to enter through a back door, after parking the car. When he made it back to the front he was told”oh yeah, that only works half the time”. We also tried the hand sanitizer dispensers on multiple floors and all were empty. When mentioned to the front desk, he said “yeah they are all empty”. The place is clean but a significant training process should be implemented on how to address issues.

The pool is still not in service. It had been closed since at least May. We are paying for this amenity and there is no sign they are ever going to work on it again. The outside door near our room does not work so we cannot park near the door to get easy access to our room

Bathroom mat was dirty, bathroom was a little lacking in cleaning. Breakfast was out of nearly everything at 8am and was never refilled while we ate. Convenient and safe location.

We did arrive late in the evening (11:30p). Rang the service bell 4 times with no response. Finally called the hotel phone number and reached a staff member to check us in. When my husband used the men's room, the wall was covered in vomit. He mentioned it to her, but she didn't seem concerned. The lobby & hallway floors were dirty when we arrived and still at checkout. A loud group was partying outside our window until at least 1am. We make this trip regularly, and will be staying elsewhere in future.

We have stayed here many times and have always had an excellent experience. This time it would have been nice to know they were remodeling and there was construction going on. The room we were in was all new and very nice but because the doors were left open during the construction and doors were left open by cleaning people we had some bugs. I hope they get an exterminator before we stay there again.

The air conditioner in the room had to be turned down to 61 just to cool the room. And the TV only had the option for live TV, could not connect to the internet for streaming. But the bed was fantastic and the staff was super friendly and helpful. Overall a very nice stay.

Liked that we had a clean room, it was quiet. I didn’t like the check in process cause they didn’t check to see if we had paid the room already and didn’t take a card for file. So that was an issue later on the next night. The air conditioning was set on one setting throughout the whole building but I wish we had control over the own settings for each room as for us we got very cold and couldn’t turn off or turn it up any. Parking was ok. Definitely needed more parking space. Staff didn't know what they were doing at all with the technology. But overall it was a very nice place to stay for a night or two.

Great stay here for a local festival. Every staff member we encountered was lovely and friendly. The breakfast offered many options and was delicious. Really enjoyed the extra touches like bottled water and cookies. Hotel overall seemed very clean. I have only had good experiences with IHG hotels. Only gripe I have is the bed being too firm and the pillows too soft, but that is with most hotels.

Our truck broke down and we limped into the hotel parking lot grateful for a place to stay until morning and we could find a mechanic. Ashley greeted us with a huge smile and accommodated our every need and whim. Offered homemade cookies and extra coffee for the pot in the room. We could have been more comfortable and made to feel more welcome. Our great stay was all thanks to Ashley! We went above and beyond!!

The good: as always the hotel and rooms were clean and comfortable. Not sure what sheets you use on your beds but they are like sleeping on a cloud. Wow. The bad: my daughters and I checked in around 2am. We were traveling from Florida to Michigan and needed a place to stop for the night. The night staff was very, very, unprofessional and I actually was questioning if they worked for the hotel. Whomever was on duty was dressed in colorful stretch pants, a graphic T-shirt, hair 1/2 in a bun (butt falling out), and she along with 2 other people walked out of the stairwell to assist us. No name tag. Nothing. The Excellent: the server in the morning tending to the breakfast was amazing. A++ customer service. She was friendly, gave us water, asked us if we needed anything. She deserves a raise and the ability to teach others how to provide 5-star service.

Excellent stay! I will definitely be coming to this particular hotel when I travel from North Carolina to Indiana. The lobby was decorated in a cute fall theme. The staff was great! The breakfast was very good with lots of variety and pre packaged to go treats, which was nice and convenient. If you are traveling with a pet there were plenty of clean areas that were well lit to potty your dog. The hotel is very convenient to restaurants, gas and fast food.

This is an excellent hotel with a great breakfast. We stayed for three nights over the 4th of July, and everything was perfect. Also, it's the best place in Ripley to watch the fireworks. We set up our lawn chairs in the side yard next to the hotel, and the fireworks were right over our heads. It was awesome, and we didn't have to drive anywhere afterwards! 😁
