In general, the room was clean, bed comfortable, and the bathroom was clean. The problems were shower - very low water pressure (water sprayed out about 2-3 inches then downward. I felt like Elf (movie) taking a shower), tub very slow to drain - thus standing in shower water (gross!), 1st morning's breakfast (July 4th) at 6:30 AM: eggs were dried out / rubbery (or left overs from prior day), turkey sausage dried out (probably left overs from prior day). 2nd morning's eggs & sausage breakfast were better. Coffee and juice both mornings were good. I asked for a discounted price due to shower & tub issues, but the hotel said I had to ask Expedia for the discount. After driving for 6 hours, people look forward to a relaxing shower with plenty of water - not a shower that is basically a squirt gun. I hope I have been able to clearly communicate the situation and I hope that Expedia will provide a reasonable discount to help with this situation.

The hotel was overbooked. a I had already paid thru Expedia and the stay was cancelled. It wasn't cancelled until I showed up to get my prepaid room. No phone call was made to alert me of it. I found out after a 13 hour drive to the hotel. We had to find somewhere else to stay at 10:40 p.m. Very disappointed and waiting for my refund.

The pool was out of service/ turning green/ had out of order tape across the door and this was not disclosed when booking or upon checking in. It was a huge disappointment to my youngest son who was looking forward to swimming. Boo Holiday Inn! This should be have been mentioned or your rates should reflect this amenity being broken.

Choose this hotel because of the outdoor pool. I had a book and mid day time to kill. We arrived and the pool was being serviced and dry. We opted to change hotels the next night and the front desk was kind to let us out of the three night commitment. Lobby was updated. Staff was friendly.

First of all the $300 plus price was not worth it. I have stayed in 5 star hotels for this price. They up the price for parents weekend and it was not worth it. The rooms are outdated. The remote was hard to work and elevator doors would not shut sometimes. The staff was excellent. Very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good. The location is close to a lot of things.

It’s well located, restaurants and retailers are at walking distance. Lobby and elevator are dusty and it’s visible to the guests. Carpets on hallways are not well maintained. The room is spacious but needs to be updated. Shower curtains were stained and very limited on towels. For a $400 weekend per night you expect a better and more well maintained hotel.
