Super Pleased!
Pros:

Everything. Perfect location. Staff went above and beyond. Amanda at the bar/grill was excellent. She did an amazing job! A large crowd stayed there that weekend so it was very busy. They had an excellent breakfast and did a wonderful job.

Cons:

It needed a couple more hooks in the bathroom to hang your clothes or towels on.

Excellent staff, excellent stay! Thank you!!
Pros:

We arrived early for check-in as we came in from out of town on a different time zone and Jennifer at the front desk was so accommodating!! She was professional yet personable and really made the check in experience a very pleasant one. We were in town to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and in addition to affording us a couple of complementary meals at the hotel restaurant, Jennifer also upgraded our room from a city view to a room with a balcony and a river view! A quiet, comfortable affordable and stay!! Thank you, Jennifer !!! And Thank you Holiday Inn for hiring kind, competent and knowledgeable professionals and for offering Americans, across the country, consistently safe, clean affordable accommodations!!
