There was a scent of mold or wetness the moment you went into the room. The iron was not working or broken. Other than that it was good for a two night stay. May consider other hotels with parking available.

Very costly for 2 nights. For those unfamiliar with the grounds there are no signs for entry or exit. Some of the interior needs work like the elevator. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. And what food and drink I had was excellent.

Right across the street from the king street metro and a Wegmans. Very attentive staff, and the area felt safe even after dark. Everything is clean, and in good condition. There is a courtyard outside with seating near what used to be a pool. Self parking, but they charge for it daily on top of the room charge. No USB outlets in my room. I had a mobility accessible room (817), and it was spacious and comfortable. The only issue was that the shower stall was narrow and they have a curved shower curtain which hangs outside the stall. There is no lip on the stall and I had to put the rolling cart the towels are on up to the stall to hold the curtain inside it, otherwise all the water goes on the floor. And since I needed a shower chair there was very little space to move without pushing the curtain out again. This could be helped by putting in a straight curtain rod and a flexible drip edge on the stall. I shared this with the management but they didn't seem very interested in changing anything because of the need for ADA review, or so they said. The first time I showered it took two towels to mop up the floor. It's a significant safety issue if you ask me. No complimentary breakfast, just coffee. The restaurant in the hotel has a limited menu, and was understaffed.

You pay for what you get. Cheap and out dated

Hotel was out dated. Our original room on the second floor smelled horrible. It smelled like mildew and cigarettes. There were dogs barking. Our second room didn’t smell as bad but it was super humid and stuffy. The bathroom was falling apart. Would not recommend. Hotel staff that checked in was terrible.

The staff was mostly nice, especially the front desk and breakfast guy. The Holiday Inn was a good choice for me in the past, not too expensive and a great place, but lately, most Holidays Inn I went are more like a 2star hotel. One last thing: after 2 nights eating in their bar, I chose to bring my food on my 3rd night, I only ask for an empty glass to pour my wine in my room, they said manger didn’t allow glass in the room. Sometimes these little details can ruin your whole experience. They need to remember that a hotel is were one person wants to be treated well and at home, not a stranger. I didn’t feel at home in this hotel. I used to have good times in Holidays Inn, but based on this property , I wouldn’t pay more tan $99 a night.
