Our bathroom was not clean at all and horribly stained. Reception were polite and cordial but did not have adequate support for the evening shift. We did not want to bother him with the condidtion of the room b/c he was there alone for the entire night.

The facility is old. We didn’t even stay. Check in and it was nasty. Our non smoking room very much smelled like smoke. The shower had mold all over it and the ceiling looked like it could fall in at any moment. The staff was terrible. Asked for more bedding and they wanted us to come get it….. But we checked out 15 minutes after we checked in and went somewhere else that was better.

Don't Just Don't

Where to begin. The room itself was fine, room was clean, the bed good and the pillows better than average. However, at about 8:am the fire alarm went off, and it kept going on and off for over 15 minutes. Person at the desk was on the phone and the housekeeping staff were jut going about their work. The breakfast area was HORRIBLE. The Cinnamon rolls were under a warming light, but were FROZEN. the tables and the floor was filthy. There were two guys in the kitchen area but made no attempt to clean anything. The property is full of weeds. On top of all of this, they charged $100 for incidental fees. We stayed at two other nice hotels over the weekend and they charged only $20. Never, Never Again.

There was one working ice machine for the entire building. The staff lied about the pool being heated instead of just saying maybe it wasn't working and they continued to pretend it was heated the entire stay. Our curtains in our room had 30 plus holes in them like there was a gun fight and one of our bathroom lights was out as well. When you stay at a Holiday inn, you expect a certain level of quality and this lacked all of that.
