I've rated the cleanliness a two due to leftover food in the mini-refrigerator that seemed to have been there a while. Aside from that, it was a wonderful place to stay.

The hotel as a whole is fine. Decent location (surrounded by car dealerships) and easy to get around. However... Whoever thought putting rooms next to the elevator (like sharing a wall with the elevator shaft) was a decent place for a room definitely did not attempt to sleep in said room. The room goes unnoticed by people using the elevator and there is no concept of noise control. I was awake at 6 AM with people going to breakfast and coming and going. So if you get rooms 210, 211 or 310, 311... Turn them down. I spoke with the lady at check out and asked if they had been at capacity as that is the only time those rooms should be used. It wasn't. I should've asked for a different room. Other then the room location, it was a decent place to stay.

Horrible!

This hotel was horrible. The room was not clean, crumbs all over the nightstand, dirty tub and the bed looked slept in. I walked in and immediately left. I don't recommend this hotel, especially for $166 a night!

Not worth the price.

Expected more out of a Holiday Inn. Our room had poor shower head with poor water pressure. Asked to switch rooms and was told rooms were too full and maintenance person would look at it. Maintenance person said there wasn’t anything he could do about it. Restroom roof had horrible water damage. There was no closet. Items that should be in a closet were put on the floor. Parking was a joke. Not enough space for any parking; lines were marked too small for vehicles and no safe overflow parking. Only thing good at this property was the breakfast.
