Avoid, it’s not worth it.

Run down hotel with a Holiday Inn badge slapped on it. This place is in a sketchy area, front door is always locked. Came up to guard screaming at locals. Rooms have no privacy - could see light through doors to adjoining rooms. Mold in shower (tiny bathroom). Supposed “queen beds” are definitely full size (yes I measured, bs false advertising). Witnessed staff arguing with customers checking in on multiple occasions and heard different deposit amounts being asked of different people. I was berated and asked if my credit card was actually mine! And the best part!! ::: Stairwell exit door handle broken so no exit on first floor - not only is this illegal but completely unsafe in the event of a fire. Only redeeming factor was the breakfast (eggs, sausage or bacon, biscuits/gravy, bagels, cereal, yogurt, diy pancakes, coffee/tea).

Stayed here many times but will try another place

The girl who checked up in was awesome. It was nice she was so attentive and friendly, especially working the late shift. We've stayed here numerous times but haven't been they're in a couple of years. Was surprised to see that a large portion of the parking lot was reserved for EV's only and now they charge for regular parking which was new. I guess if you're driving a gas vehicle you get to pay for the upgrades for the EV drivers. Next time I'll stay at another hotel.
