“It's Alright....”

The building is old. It's like polishing a turd, you can polish that baby until it shines but it's still a turd. It's like an abandoned office building with brand new furnishings. Maybe I got a bad room?? It's definitely not worth the price even if it is in a larger city. But the attached restaurant has the greatest service, those people are the best!

“Last choice stay”

I was very disappointed with my stay at Holiday Inn the rooms were old and out dated and the staff was not very hospitable. I can understand with the other hotels in the area were booked and not this one.

“Beware: If allergic to pets”

If you are allergic to pets or like to walk around with a layer of dog hair on your clothing then fine...I am and I don't. The room smelled like pet urine, and the chair was covered with dog hair...which I discovered after sitting on it and wearing a black pair of slacks. I did talk to front desk and was told that they allow pets on first floor. Unfortunately, they did not tell us this upon check in or we would have requested a different floor. They did ask if I was allergic to dogs, but otherwise didn't seem interested in hearing my complaint. Supposedly, they 'clean' the floors but not the furniture after a pet has been in room. We wiped the chair down with a damp cloth, 3 times before getting all the pet hair and dirt off of it. Not happy at all.

“Poor room location.”

The staff was very slow and unknowledgeable when we asked for directions or have something brought to the room. We had a terrible noise outside our room, like a machine running, that ran night and day. Was hard to get a good night sleep. No breakfast, except at a nearby restaurant.

“One of the worst I've ever seen.”

Lazy staff, dirty, and doors wouldn't lock
