The staff was amazing. The room was clean, the beds were very comfortable. The pool was overrun with pre-teen kids without supervision. My young granddaughter and I couldn’t really enjoy our time at the pool for the throwing of balls (which one hit my 84 yr old mother) fighting with pool noodles, etc. The parents were partying on the back parking lot instead of supervising their unruly children.

Our stay at Holiday Inn got the job done (cross country drive and just needed a place for the night) but that’s about it. It wasn’t very clean and the place just looked worn
