The room was clean. Furniture needs updating, old and chair stained. Its in a bad area. Having to park in the back and then having yo walk all the way to the front to get in when there are key doors in the back lets me know its not a safe area. I heard what sound like 5 gun shots then 3 more shots followed as I was getting my suitcase out of the trunk of my car upon arrival. I froze!! I didnt know whether to get back in my car, run or get down. The only parking was in back behind the building. Being a female traveling alone! They should get a security guard to sit by that door at night so entry can be available from the back to enter the building faster, quickly and safetly.
It a dirty area. Trash all in the streets. Fast food buildings all dirty and nasty. I should have known not to expect more since the room where so cheap. I only stayed 1 night. I love Holiday Inn but will never stay at that location again in that area.Sorry
