The parking lot was terrible. I understand there was snow and such, however why was the parking lot not plowed. It limited the parking for guest and was very slippery to walk to the door.

Everything was great, check-in was easy. Breakfast would be better if it had some non dairy options for the coffee and more fruit or oatmeal type options. The eggs were good, and so was the bacon.

Nice hotel, great for families

The hotel was nice we have stayed there in the past really love the pool for my grandkids unfortunately the pool was closed for majority of are stay which was the reason we picked that hotel. The hotel is also under renovation. But we will return I will just call before booking to make sure the pool will be open.

Called to cancel with no luck and app wouldnt let me contact the property. I physically couldnt make it due to the weather out of the interest of safety. Would be nice to get a refund as this is out of my hands

The first room we were given stunk of body odor. We were moved to the 3rd floor which happens to be directly under the floor where extensuve renovations start at 7am. So, at 7am, there was an insane amount of drilling, banging, stomping on the floors, etc. When i called the front desk, the receptionist said there is nothing she can do without authorization from the owner who cant be reached. We spent $200 on a room to be woken up at 7am. Disgraceful. At breakfast, we met another couple who were on the second floor, and they heard the construction, as well. It's impossible not to, power tools and hammers reverberate throughout the whole hotel. We dont expect a refund, because no one cares. The hotel has been paid, and the owner is absent, and the Holiday Inn couldnt care less. We will, though, get an 'I'm sorry to hear about your inconvenience, and we will work hard to improve your next stay.' As if that's good enough.
