Room was clean....Water pressure was really bad. Slide to the pool was broken the whole weekend so our kids were disappointed....it was one of the reasons we picked the hotel was to use the pool and slide. Breakfast was not a very good selection and most of the things were empty. The toilet in our room would not flush at all. The room itself was clean and decent to stay in.

Pool slide was broken no one mentioned it until arrival, biggest reason for booking...
Had the verdant thermostat's which couldn't be changed front desk tried to call maintenance no response from them. Ended up getting the window to open for cool air. Too be fair the staff on duty did try to help but couldn't due to lack of knowledge

This motel advertises the \"blue water slide\" that is NOT working. I had paid extra to stay at this facility because my Grandchildren working meeting us there. We were NEVER told that the waterslide was closed until AFTER my Grandchildren arrived. I feel that this is FALSE ADVERTISING. EXTREMELY disappointed

We scheduled our stay as this hotel for the pool for our grandkids. When we got there, there was a sign saying the pool was closed for repairs. We were very disappointed. The lady at the front desk was very nice and offered to give us a refund and even called around and found us a different hotel. Since we booked through hotels.com she told us to call them to get our refund. Long story short, Garner refused to give the refund..

Name changed to Garner IHG so that was a bit confusing. Rooms were nice, bed was comfy as was the pillows. Breakfast was good. Coffee was not good. TV screen was fuzzy in our room. A lot of TV channels to select from. We were with other people who said their TV was fuzzy too. All in all, we would stay again. It was super quiet- we loved that.

We needed a handicapped accessible room, and we were given one on the first floor, which was great. As soon as we got in our room, we noticed the noise coming from the next room. We thought it was fans, as they had removed fans from our room. The sound never quit, so in early evening, we asked if whatever was making the sound could be turned off so that we could sleep better.
The person from the desk came down, and we found out that the sound was coming from a mechanical room next to ours.
What ever it was that was making the noise - compressor or something, could not be turned off. She said that she couldn't give us another room, as they were all being used.
I think that we should have been offered a refund, or we should have been offered a quiet room in one of the other hotels in the area.
We have had a good experience at other Holiday Inn Express hotels, but this was very disappointing due to the constant noise.

Our family booked this location based on the pool amd water slide. We were not informed at check-in the pool was closed for renovations.

We were in town for a baseball tournament and wanted to enjoy the pool between games.

Had we been told prior to checking in we would have looked for another cheaper option.

Came for the pool and water slide. Found out when we got here that they have been broken for months. Staff did very little to accommodate other than say we could walk to another hotel and use their pool. Hampton across the street was ver kind and polite. Would highly recommend them.

Pool and part of the building was being renovated. Spent a lot of money for a place that didn't even have a working pool. Room was clean but walls were scuffed up and bathroom was very dingy and stained. I know they were renovating but if you book through here you wouldn't know that and no one told us when we called either.

Lack of Communication

Staff was friendly. The pool was closed the whole weekend which was the whole point of us getting a hotel room and choosing that hotel because of the water slide. I would have appreciated a call before the weekend that the pool was going to be closed. Yes I would have cancelled my reservation and booked elsewhere because I have 2 little kids that is just easier having a pool on site.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. The room was good. The only reason I didn't give it a higher rating is the fact the pool slide was not open during the week (only open on weekends) and we were there during the week. It was the main reason we choose this hotel. The hot tub was also closed. We had a whole day to fill and planned on spending most of that time enjoying the hottub, pool and the slide, but we didn't use it at all the second day, only spent a couple of hours the first night in the pool and hottub.
