Overall good, remodel hiccups.

The hotel was getting remodeled, which, we did not know about until the day of. However, we were accommodated with free parking and extra points. Beds were great, staff was friendly, one of the best breakfast selections I’ve seen! Not so goods: Bathroom had hair on the floor prior to our arrival and just did not feel “clean”. Construction started at 8am on a Saturday preventing us from getting some much needed rest. Walls and doors are thin, any hallway conversation can be heard from your room.

Decent Stay, Hotel Under Renovation

My stay was fine, except that the hotel was undergoing renovations so the pool and fitness center were closed. The elevators were a mess from the renovations. No luggage carts available because the renovators were using them.

The property called the day I was traveling to tell me that there was no gym or pool or hot breakfast because of renovations occurring at the property. I paid full price for the room, and did not have a choice to cancel because I was within 24 hours. They called the day of intentionally so that I could not cancel. The elevators were filthy and smelled terrible— my daughter was scared to be in them. This property should have closed during renovations or advertised it on the website or called at least 48 hours in advance to inform patrons of the renovations. I will give credit to a clean and pleasant room far away from construction noise.

Fast check in… Hotel was under remodeling process… Staff call me way prior to my check in and inform me and gave me a good package like free parking etc. Unfortunately the Tv had no signal warning displayed and when I call to report it they told me there was no signal problem and said they were sorry without offering to resolve the issue.

Hotel is under construction for next 3 months

This is not the fault of Holiday Inn but the fault of Hotel's.com who did not let me know before I booked that this hotel was under ACTIVE remodeling so there was no amenities, construction crew and noise along with dust and debris everywhere. If I had known, I would have never booked here while under construction.
