The pool was indoor yet too cold to swim, the hot tub is filled in for a garden, the sauna was not working. Room was very old and mattress was like laying on springs. Ceiling had alot of dried water damage and I found bugs in the bathroom. Staff were very nice and kind. Wouldn't recommend this stay. Id give it 1 star.

The parking was very convenient, however, i booked a king bed and they gave us a room with 2 queen beds. Pretty sure there was black mold all over the bathroom ceiling. The shower had little black hairs everywhere, and the one \"clean\" towel they gave us had a long dark hair in it when i went to use it. We like staying here because its close to family but will definitely reconsider different options next time. We feel it is just going downhill. It could be a really nice hotel if it was taken care of and kept up. Also, the sauna and got tub are never open.

While the room was in good condition, the elevator was disgusting. The posted and advertised hours of the bar was 5-9 pm. Upon arriving to the hotel slightly before 8 pm to have some drinks and maybe food, the bar was closed and it was said that is was because there were no patrons. Had I even known that it would possibly be closed before the posted time, I would have went elsewhere prior to returning the hotel. In the middle of my shower, the water pressure decreased so much I had to finish washing my hair in the sink that had full pressure. The other complaint I had was the heater rumbled so loud that I just turned it off and snuggled in the covers as much as possible to stay warm.

This is an older hotel that used to be a Holidome. My husband & I stayed here 40 years ago. That said, it is still a great place to stay. The lobby is so beautiful and the staff friendly and helpful. Our room was clean, bed was comfortable and towels fluffy! The hotel has some wear but that’s to be expected. The pool is large and very clean. The breakfast is one of the best “hotel free breakfast” we have experienced. A great place to stay for the money. This was our second stay in the last couple of months. Our son lives just a few miles away so it’s perfect for us. We will be back!

Family of 5 with 3 kids 16 and under, we were placed in none connecting rooms and down the hall from each other. The toilet in our room wouldn't flush unless you took the lid off and messed with the thing inside. One of the bottles glued to the shower fell off the wall while my husband showered, a second one fell off in the middle of the night. We were placed in a room with a view of one of their event spaces (which is fine), however there was an event going on until 11pm making sleep difficult for us as music blared in our room.

The front desk person was a bit rude. On the photos it looks way better than in person. It’s definitely an old hotel and it has a creepy atmosphere. It was very empty and some hallways were completely dark throughout the building. The closet had moisture bags in it and they were full. I was traveling alone for work and it made me feel a bit unsafe. I recommend staying at one of the more known hotels in the area if you’re traveling alone.

I booked a double queen room. To save on occupant space not realizing it would cost more, because I didn't think to ask. The bathoom floor was soaked after plugging the bathtub drain to soak my feet. Julia was wonderful and cleaned it up for me. The event space in the PPG room was entirely too cold. I would give this place a second try if the need arises.

booked and pre paid for a king room with sofa. I was not given that kind of room as they said they were sold out of them. odd part is the parking lot only had 6 cars, not sure how they could be out. my only option was to take a 2 queen room that would have cost me more. front desk staff refused to call the manager at 9:45pm so we could figure out a solution to the problem was only offered to take queen room and manager would let me know what the rate would be in the morning lol. NO lots of nicer hotels priced the same in the area.

Decatur conference center soooo disappointing

The decatur conference center, formerly decatur holidome, Used to be a first class establishment. I held numerous business events, famiky stayed there and cardinal caravan used to come here. What a dusappointment now. We called and asked for early checkin and were told no that they were full. Im not sure anyone else was there. The lights were off in holidome to the point if being unsafe. The website advertised hot tub. It was down. I dont mean being serviced. It was dry and dirty. When i asked staff i was told they had been down for 2 years. Thats deceptive. Pool was cold. I could have stayed at several nicer hitels for 70-80 vs 126 they charged. Showet didntcwork. It barely came out. Breakfast was mediocre. Sorry i expected more for the price. I asked the desk to make a concession. Staff was polite. She said it was up to manager. I left my number no call. Shameful. They earned this review.

The hotel is located in a very quiet area about 10 minutes outside of Decatur itself. It is a very nice and spacious hotel, although it is definitely starting to show its age in some aspects.

Needs some serious updating in the rooms! Bathrooms need some deep cleaning. Black gunk in the sink drains, shower pressure poor. Rooms located on interior walls by active hallways at 1 am so a good restful night did NOT happen. Special events(music) happening in one part of the facility should not be so loud that it is heard at the complete opposite side of the conference center. Overall, I saw other bad reviews but thought it couldn’t be THAT bad so I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt and give it a chance. Sorry I did.
