Though under renovations at this time, rooms are clean and bedding’s are fresh. Shower and bathroom are very nice. Room was spacious with big ref, microwave and even sink. The staff were courteous and very accommodating esp when we request an urgency for early check-in. They tried their best to accommodate us the best they can. Will definitely stay with Holiday Inn again next time.

It’s next to a big shopping mall and there are quite a few restaurants near by. Felt good except my room’s key didn’t work most of the time and i had to change the room the next day. The breakfast was good with three hot items and regular stuff. Will stay at this place again.

Great Hotel -- But Didn't Know About Renovations

Great staff, nice room, but we weren't aware of the renovations. So, that is my only reason for the lower rating.

For starters, it was being renovating. A lot of noise but was understandable. Front end was a little aggressive when I was asking questions. Not friendly at all. She might need to go back and take some courses on how to greet and meet.
