The room was large, clean and comfortable but the water for the shower just barely warm enough to be tolerable. Add to that the fact that the shower curtain was not big enough to extend wall to wall and it made for a chilly shower experience.

It was pretty run down. The towel bar came out of the wall when I hung a towel on it. The room key cards kept having to be reprogrammed. The door itself was extremely hard to open when the card actually worked. The person that checked is in want very knowledgeable. I booked two rooms yet she only checked is into one so we had to go all the way back down to check into the second room. Where the heat didn't work so we had to change rooms. The pool wasn't open. That was a huge disappointment to the kids. It was the main reason we booked there. On the positive side the beds were comfortable. The rooms were clean. The breakfast at the restaurant next door was amazing.

Last ten years i have been coming from Maine to Massachusetts to see my grandson 1 weekend a month. He is non verbal autistic.. Because he loves the pool and has a special diet i ALWAYS get a room/suite with a kitchen and a pool. . Not happy at all. Reserved this " suite " because of the pool. My grandson loves the pool. 2 days before check in i got an email stating that the pool was closed. Had i known that I would have never have gone there. When I get there and get to the suite the kitchen is completely empty of all essentials. Plates,cups,cutlery, paper towels etc. I have never had a suite that advertised a kitchen not have the basics. I brought all the food but had to go find plastic silverware cups,napkins and plates in the lobby.
Entered the room and it was hot, I mean unbearable hot. Turned downt the heat and nextorning found the heater was leaking. 1/8 of the carpet was soaked. Towel racks in the bathroom fell off the wall. The vent in the bathroom, which is located right next to the bed, roars like a freight train non stop. Extremely disappointed in.my experience with this hotel. There is a reason I don't go to motel 6 anymore but I would probably go there before this holiday Inn again.

Friendly staff, great customer service, welcoming hotel newly renovated looks good inside. Would recommend if you're in a crunch and need a place to stay for a short time or a week.. location isn't easy to get to but they have plenty of parking. Easy to maneuver inside and out...

The staff was nice, as always. 🙂
HOWEVER, Room 444 was awful. The AC sounded like jet engines every time it kicked on, which was about every 15 minutes. We couldn't shut it off unless we wanted to be super hot or super cold.
Bring your phone charger plug! Not a single USB port in the room.
There was no microwave, the bathroom vent could not be turned off and was so loud. There were exactly 2 cups, two coffee pods and no working ice machines on the 1st, 2nd, or 4th floor. The pool was out of service.
We stay in IHG hotels a lot while traveling and this one was the worst we've seen in a few years.
