It was Great! Whenever visiting Evansville, we will stay here again.
Pros:

The majority of the reviews were spot on. The room was nice and very clean, as was the rest of the hotel. The gent that checked us in was wonderful. He made us feel at home and the check in process was smoother than silk. We usually stay at Marriott owned hotels. But will be giving Holiday Inn more consideration in future travels.

Cons:

There's nothing really negative to say about this location.

Quick stay
Pros:

I ran into traffic and was going to be very late for check in. I called and Jessica checked me in over the phone so I would have my room and could go straight to it. The room was clean, setup nicely and quiet. The beds were comfortable and the shower had good water pressure.

Great Location, Extremely Friendly Staff
Pros:

Conveniently located off the highway, very friendly staff and clean!

Cons:

Just some issues with the first room, but they were more than happy to switch us to another room. Additionally, the breakfast was average at best.
