Horrible. Worst Holiday Inn I have stayed at.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

When we checked in the air conditioner did not work in our room. We had to be switched rooms. When we went into the next room and in our other room, the fan made a rattling noise.

Elevator was super slow and took five minutes to go up or down each time.

There was no phone to call the front desk in the rooms.

One of the reasons why we booked a hotel was that breakfast was included. During our stay, there was no breakfast. The first day was because I guess complaining that the milk was spoiled and the rest of the stay they said that there was construction.

One night we came back to the hotel around 10pm and the front door was broken and did not allow us to enter. It was 6 inches open. I had to walk to the back of the hotel with my handicap mother to enter.

It was a very unpleasant stay, the bed springs were also very loud when u got up or when u entered the bed or tossed and turned at night.

Unfortunately, this was one of the worst hotel experiences my family has had, and I would not stay here again.
Pros:

The hot water

Cons:

Our stay was very disappointing. There was hair in both beds, and one bed even had a footprint on the sheets, making it seem like they had not been properly cleaned. The floors were dirty, the air conditioning barely worked, and the TV in the living room never worked, so my children couldn’t use it. The elevator was dirty and did not operate properly. Staff were mopping without placing wet floor signs, creating a safety hazard. We were also given the wrong customer service phone number, and the front desk employee was rude and unhelpful. At checkout, we waited over 15 minutes just to print receipts, and then we were told we couldn’t receive one because we booked through Booking.com, which was very frustrating.

Pros:

I liked the front staff. They were helpful and made my chsck in and out easy. Free coffee.

Cons:

The room smelled like hot shower. They dont air out the rooms and you can smell it. Rhe pillows look nice and fluffy and when you lay down on them, you loterally sink in. The beds made so much noise. The springs in both the beds were so loud with every movement. The dumpster outside was overflowing with trash. I found a cochroach in the room. We asked for towels to be brought to our room and no one came. The doors were hard to open and you would have to pull them hard to close. Their were lots of flies in the dinning area because of the door to the parking lot by the pool not being closed properly. Again, you had to pull it hard to close. We stayed for 3 days and 2 nights. Our trash was piled up before we left. Not sure if we had to call for them to come check our room.

Pros:

This area is great, and you can easily walk to Starbucks, Dutch Bros Coffee, McDonald’s, Taco Bell, and Popeye’s.

Cons:

The elevator takes much longer to open and close, and it’s also slow to reach each floor. It needs an update!

Cons:

Room was FILTHY. Common areas such as elevators - filthy. Breakfast bar was the worse I have ever experienced. No fruit, waffle machine broken, coffee area dirty, homeless come in for breakfast, my room key was not working on the work out area and no one was at the desk to let me in. No Cleaning service. Elevator stopped working our last night. Horrible place. DO NOT STAY HERE.

Bummed at the price I paid for the quality.
Pros:

Super convenient location. HEB & Walmart right across the highway!

Cons:

There was a smell once you got out of the elevators. Like mildew. I asked for extra pillows and didn’t receive them. Quality definitely was not what I was expecting from HIE
