Staff was great. Room was nice but our coffee maker didn't work, our shower flooded the whole bathroom at 1 oclock in the morning, out passkeys quit working and we couldn't get in. The hotel compensated us for those issues and other than those it was ok. Very clean place to stay.

I got to the hotel, and they advised that Expedia overbooked. Even though I paid for me room, Holiday Inn did not hold my purchase. I thought it odd that the staff blamed another company, but it is what is it.

We didn’t get much sleep due to loud music and partying at the ground floor. It seemed some hotel guests decided to tail gate in the parking lot and the noise kept is up til well after midnight Also, we could hear a lot of road traffic from inside the room, and the air conditioning unit was very loud, even on the low fan setting. Amenities — the hot tub was out of order. Unfortunately one of the reasons we selected this hotel was for the hot tub. Part of our breakfast order was missing and the hair dryer in the room was broken. The staff was friendly and room was a good size and clean

Rooms were good. Staff was courteous and helpful but since the hotel was understaffed hence we had to wait for our breakfast for almost one hour every morning. No matter what time you go down for breakfast, you have to wait for minimum 1 hr. This hotel had no buffet served breakfast like other hotels. my suggestion would be they should start serving buffet for breakfast when lots of people are there. Thanks
