Categories

Cleanliness
6
Mixed signals: several guests praised cleanliness, but multiple reports of unvacuumed floors, hair in the bathroom, musty smells, a spill not mopped, dirty headboard and overflowing lobby trash indicate inconsistent housekeeping.
Service
9.75
Generally very positive — staff repeatedly described as friendly, welcoming and polite. Some process issues (breakfast access, deposit discrepancies) required extra steps, but staff were helpful when shown confirmations.
Location
9.75
Consistently praised: convenient location close to restaurants and attractions, noted repeatedly as a strong positive by guests.
Room Quality
7
Mostly comfortable rooms and beds reported, but issues include musty odors in some rooms, suites indistinguishable from standard rooms, occasional maintenance problems (TV, headboard).
Amenities
6.5
Amenities show gaps: breakfast availability/charging confusion, missing extra blankets, lack of detergent packs for laundry, and empty coffee/utensil stations reported by guests.
Value for Money
6
Mixed value: comfortable clean stays for many, but guests reported being charged unexpectedly for breakfast, misleading deposit information for locals, and other small service gaps that reduce perceived value.
Food and Beverage
7
Breakfast had variety and positive notes, but access/control by staff (asking to pay even when included) and occasional shortages/empty stations created friction for guests.
Overall Experience
8
Overall mixed-to-positive: many repeat and satisfied guests praising comfort, staff and location, but a number of significant cleanliness and amenity/process issues led to inconsistent experiences.

Our stay was short, overnight, had a surgery scheduled early the next day.
Pros:

Comfortable bed and 2 pillows not just one.

Cons:

Questioned if the floor got mopped, seen a small spill in the doorway of the bathroom.

Pros:

Location and clean

Cons:

I had a suite and could not tell the difference between that and a standard room.(same square footage). Also on booking.com website breakfast was included. It was not.

Close to restaurants but DIRTY. Would not recommend.
Pros:

The location of the property was nice, close to restaurants so you did not have to drive. Staff were friendly.

Cons:

When you first walk into the property, it seems clean and well maintained. When you get into your room, it is a different story; no trash bags in the trash cans, bathroom had public hair all over, floor needed vacuumed, tv barely worked, and the headboard needed cleaned.

Would not recommend anyone to stay here.

We expected more from Holiday Inn
Pros:

The rooms were comfortable, clean and quiet. Staff was polite. Lots of variety at breakfast.

Cons:

You can't just walk in to the breakfast area and serve yourself. Instead, the front desk staff stops you and asks if you want to pay for it, even if it's included in your room reservation (in my case). Very awkward and inconvenient. They didn't have a record of it, so I had to pull up an email confirmation and show it to them just to get breakfast. Trash cans in the lobby were overflowing. Several items were empty (coffee pots, utentils, etc). We were told there were no extra blankets. We wanted to do laundry but no detergent packs were for sale up front, or available from housekeeping.

Would not stay again
Pros:

The location was convenient

Cons:

They conveniently “forgot” to give me the breakfast coupon I paid extra for- I had to ask for it, the TV outside in patio area didn’t work, breakfast French toast in chafer was burnt to a crisp, you had to ask for water at breakfast- it’s free so I think you can afford to put it out as self serve, no forks out, no bowls out, we had water in our ice bucket in our room which was clearly from the last guest, no filtered water available anywhere in hotel, the lighting in the room is terrible- the work desk has no light even near it, hallways were dark, the young lady working the breakfast was working very hard and always on the move, everyone else working at the hotel last night and today was sitting at the front desk.
