Stayed here 4 days. Could find a single thing to be upset with. The staff was so friendly. From the front desk, so helpful, (directions, things to do, house keeping staff with a good morning every day, and the lady that was taking care of breakfast every day was amazing. So friendly. She made some French toast for some children, I saw it, and looked for some, but she said that she just made for the kids. I said no worries, plenty of other good stuff. Next thing I know, I have 2 pieces of fresh French toast. Umbrella's in the lobby for use because of the rain. Above and beyond. Rooms very clean and comfortable. Thank you.

The room was very nice, the free breakfast is excellent. That said, the walls are either very thin or I was just unlucky to be next to someone listening to the wee hours with TV volume super loud. I called the front desk 3 times. They called the room twice and knocked on the door, but the volume was left so loud I could not sleep until 1am. I had a 6am wakeup the next morning and was terribly sleepy for my all day meetings. I would not return stay and risk not being able to sleep again.

Everytime I visit in put in the same room, 211 which is next to the elevator so you hat nice all night. The room needs a deep cleaning. There's dirt in the corners of the bathroom, around the tolit and a quality sticker from clothing stuck to the floor. The carpet has the same red stain each time I visit. For $220 a night I exspected better. Staff was super nice!

The rooms were very small . If you are wanting to pay extra for a nicer room with a Jacuzzi don't do it. It's not worth it. . I've stayed in better hotels for half of the price and I've traveled from East Coast to the west coast.

The breakfast was fine. Staff was friendly. Room was not great. It was clean, but the ceiling in the bathroom has some structural issues. Also, the room we were in was right above the portoco that leads into the front of the building. That is also where people smoke. Our a/c unit pulled in the cigarette smoke. I woke up sick from it. When I spoke to the front desk, he just nodded & said \"okay, sorry about that.\" They need to update/upgrade their hvac system. Noone should have to endure that when they're sleeping. I was sick the whole day from it.

The facility was spotless and this is my second or third visit and that has been consistent across all of the visits highly recommend this location if you need a place to stay.

Check-in was bad. This hotel requires a $100 incidental hold for one night. Really high, but ok. Our card kept not being accepted. Not declined but not goin through. They kept asking for another card. No. We don’t have one. So then they asked us to go get cash. No. The manager finally came out and said it was their system error and they’d waive the hold.

The room was fine but the bathers door was not aligned properly and was hard to open and made lots of noise when opening or closing.

Breakfast was typical of Holiday Inn which is one reason I like them. However, bacon and cinnamon rolls needed to be replenished for quite a while and never were.

Overall, not up to HI expectations.

Stay was great ,most of staff is friendly. The only thing that shocked me was, the staff at the hotel \"swiped\" my credit card and charged me, but would not provide me with a receipt. Then at checkout after my stay , i tried to request a receipt for my stay. the Male staff member said \"sorry we cannot give you a receipt. you will need to contact expedia for one\". So i have to keep an eye out on my credit card charges to make sure this hotel credits the $100 hold back onto my credit card.
