Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Mixed reports: several guests praised cleanliness, housekeeping called 'awesome' and many noted rooms were clean, but multiple reviews report serious issues (trash in fridge, stained sheets, dirt in tub, persistent bad/sulfur smells and moldy carpet). Overall lowered due to multiple concrete negative incidents.
Service
8.8
Generally positive: multiple mentions of friendly, helpful staff and excellent housekeeping; however there is at least one strong negative incident (rude/uncaring manager who refused to help with a booking issue). Overall leans positive but slightly tempered by that serious complaint.
Location
9.3
Consistently praised: convenient to restaurants, gas, Wawa next door, close to Hardrock/FTL and other attractions. Some minor downsides (busy convenience store at night) but overall location is a strong positive.
Room Quality
7.6
Mixed: many guests found beds very comfortable and rooms spacious; but issues reported include loud A/C, old/moldy carpets, odors, stained sheets and occasional booking/room assignment problems. Comfort is often good but reliability is inconsistent.
Amenities
7.4
Limited amenities: complimentary breakfast and coffee (though coffee requires going to reception) and luggage carts available; small/teensy pool, tight/sometimes full parking and lack of in-room kettles reported. Functional but constrained.
Value for Money
8
Generally seen as good value and reasonable rates by several guests, with explicit 'great value' comments; some negative notes about perceived price gouging (expensive bottled water) and booking/payment frustrations that reduce perceived value for affected guests.
Food and Beverage
8.9
Breakfast widely praised (good selection, 'very good' breakfast, complimentary choices), though a recurring complaint about short breakfast hours and limited breakfast area/space. Overall F&B is a clear strength with some operational caveats.
Overall Experience
9.1
On balance guests report a generally positive stay driven by location, breakfast and comfortable beds; however significant negative incidents around cleanliness and isolated service failures lower enthusiasm for some visitors. Overall experience trends positive for many travelers despite notable negatives.

Pros:

The breakfast was pretty good and the wawa next door was convenient

Cons:

Our room had trash in the fridge from another guest. The room also smelt like sulfur off and on. I have yet to get my $100 back. The pool was teeny tiny

Lovely place.
Pros:

Great breakfast. Very comfortable beds. Complimentary coffee.

I love Holiday Inns but not this one
Pros:

The room was big and comfortable. Bed and pillows were great
Shower was pretty good
Housekeeping was awesome!
Very clean

Cons:

Very short and very early hours for breakfast 6-9 AM - who get up that early on vacation? Obviously a money saving tactic. I say that because of what happened when we were checking out. Self Serve Kiosk had water for sale. I grabbed one and went to self check out. $5.50 for a BOTTLE OF WATER! Price gouging - not even that expensive at a concert.
Because of this I would never recommend this hotel nor would I return

Good stay.
Pros:

Excellent morning breakfast

Cons:

Our beds where too high for our age. We are a 70 year old couple. I have to help my wife climb to her bed. Everything else was good.

It was a great value. Rooms were comfortable and mostly quiet.
Pros:

Location was great, except the late crowd at the convenience store. But if you don’t mind d the smell of weed, no complaints.

Cons:

Small parking lot, depending on where you were coming from, sometimes difficult to find a space or enter the property.
