Stock show trip

The room wasn’t the cleanest. The lamps and plugs didn’t work, it was very dark. I had a pillow with blood stains on it. One bed was good and the other was like an elephant slept in it for 6 weeks. The pull out bed was ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!!!! The staff was great though and the breakfast was good. Right next to a Sam’s and Walmart. The Walmart is pretty sketchy though at night!

Holiday Inn

The hotel needs maintenance. TV didn't work in the bedroom, shower head was clogged and barley thru out water and microwave didn't work either. Bagels in the breakfast area were hard as a rock and I don't know why they put ice in the orange and apple juice containers. Luggage carts are old and broken also.
