Kiddie Pool Closed

Chose this hotel for their indoor kiddie pool playground per the photos. After we drove THREE HOURS for this amenity, we checked in (nothing was mentioned about the kiddie pool being closed at check-in) and got our kids ready for the pool. Found out when we got down to the pool which was covered with yellow caution tape that the entire kiddie pool area was closed and drained for construction. Desk clerk was 0% apologetic. Very very frustrating.

FALSE ADVERTISING! I booked this hotel based on the pictures of the beautiful pool area. We show up to swim with our kids, and the kid pool with slides is broken apart, water drained. Pool is gross, dark cloudy color, hair clumps floating in it. Rusted areas. Hot tub was disgusting as well. Despite this, my kids were still excited about the little splash pad area, so we stayed for a little bit and let them run around. I’ve been bamboozled!

Not up to Holiday Inn "standards". Some areas have been updated and are nice, others areas were dirty and not up to par. They could have an amazing swim area but the equipment definitely needs some updating/improvements. Also, be advised they charge $5.00 per person for breakfast....we paid and regretted it, had to ask for oj, milk, and additional things to be filled. Some of the staff does not speak English. Our room was clean but above the shower was full of mold, fan did not work, sink did not drain correctly :(

Bathroom flooded. Took for an hour to get help and to get moved to another room. I understand being short staff but that does not fall on customers. I was traveling with my 2 year old daughter it was just super inconvenient and the response from the hotel was delayed and frustrating. I waited for someone to come and that took away from experience water area with my family and with time being limited it all just snowballed. Hopefully hotel takes accountability
