    I wish I could give 0 stars. First customer service is terrible you try to call they will hang up in your face they will leave the phone to ring. And when you try to cancel your reservation because of their terrible service the general manager Sarah will put a nail in the coffin and still charge you even though you’re not comfortable staying with service like that. Honestly I was already trying to give holiday inn IHG a chance again. But this here just confirmed they are not the definition of hospitality anymore.

    Hotel had a moldish smell as soon as I walked in. After getting into the room, there was some kind of residue (something melt?) on the side table next to the bed. The table next to the chair looked like it had stuff all over it-I didn’t what to touch it so I don’t know what it was. Tub in the bathroom had rust around it. There was also a fake fingernail in the hallway outside of the room. Just felt like the hotel in general needs a renovation and more attention to detail cleaning. Comfy bed though and the breakfast was good. The restaurant next door was super good and within walking distance.

    Some good but some not so good. It is obvious that some of the hotel has had upgrades. However, when entering my room, I immediately noticed the gold, green & blue carpet, chairs, curtains & wall. Light fixtures are the old bubble style. (Two had bulbs not working). Bathtub had rust & mold around the fixtures and the water did not drain well when showering. I noticed that one window sheer was missing. Bed & Pillows were comfortable, A/C worked well. Breakfast was hot and good with a variety of options. Staff was available but there was very little interaction.

    Room carpet and bathroom shower not good. Carpet was stained and dirty, and had a mild odor of smoke in the room. Carpet in the elevators was filthy just like in the room. Unable to access the pool as the door lock would not unlock for multiple people. Breakfast was not great won’t be back.
