Not the best Holiday Inn… room was not cleaned properly upon arrival. The bed looked like it had been slept in( plus a hair under the pillow), sticky smear on night stand and mildew in shower. I was able to change rooms, the mildew was still present and the heating system was so loud I had to turn it off to sleep. The hot water took some time to get hot in the shower, and people in other rooms complained of this as well. The TV does not offer the option to use streaming services. There is an outdoor pool ( no hot tub) that is unheated and had zero ambiance. I would not recommend this hotel.

Room was very clean, unfortunately there was a smell from room and furnishings from the room and breakfast area have seen better days. Carpet in room and common areas had stains. I stayed at this hotel when it first opened and it showed a lot of promise, however time may have gotten the best of this location.

Our room was clean and fresh upon arrival. Towels were replenished each day while were out. The bathtub was full of dirt and pebbles when we arrived back from our day on Thursday and we don’t know how or why. The trash cans were emptied daily. The section at breakfast was okay. More light or zero sugar options would have been nice. The staff was all super nice and helpful.
