The property looked great and clean inside!! The lady working breakfast was very friendly!! When checking out the lady was seemingly a little snotty about my husband's service dog but that was the only issue. We loved the room and the size of it!! .

You expect a certain basic level when booking a Holiday Inn and this doesn’t meet it. Tired building. Worn furniture. No shower curtain in room!!! When brought the lack of shower curtain to night staff attention was told they didn’t have any housekeeping there to rectify. How about moving rooms or getting a curtain from another unbooked room? Instead given extra towels to mop up floor which was soaked after shower. When brought this up again to morning staff was simply told thanks for letting them know. Seriously? And the joke of it all is a note in room about how they aim for 8,9,10 rating and are there to ensure a satisfactory experience. I’d say staff aren’t really concerned with customer experience.

The floor in our room was sticky and not clean. The shower water immediately went cold. The holder in the shower holding soap dispensers was falling off the wall making it difficult to use. The shower head was gross and dirty.

I stayed 9/7/24-9/8/24. Front desk clerk was very rude. I booked and paid through Expedia, my payment to Expedia went through (I even had my receipt) but the Expedia to the hotel payment was having issues going through. She made me call Expedia after driving 8 1/2 hours or she wasn’t allowing us to check in. After standing there going through a million phone prompts with Expedia she decided to call her manager. The manager said it was not an issue on my part and to let us check in and the hotel would call Expedia to straighten it out. This woman had awful customer service and clearly was not happy at her no . I will no longer stay at an IHG

Just for sleep
I will be honest and say it might be because I was tired, but I felt the lady who checked us in was rude. I have a unique name and although my drivers license was in her possession, she asked me three times if I was the person. Finally, I reached in and tapped my license and said, yes, just like my license says. Overall though, we had a great experience. Breakfast and breakfast staff were great!!
