- CCChris Cotner4 days ago4.0This Holiday Inn has an attached event venue named Roberts Center, and my review is for that. This is a large event venue that has meeting rooms and large spaces that is great for craft shows, live music and weddings, etc.. There is also a pub there that serves good food and beverages.
- DZDale ZOct 21, 20255.0Loved the hotel. Clean, big room, big hallways, big lobby. Very nice stay. It's kind of out in the middle of nowhere though. We had a very nice meal at the hotel restaurant too (Ralph's). They had some very nice specialty cocktails.
- PDPatricia DenBoerOct 11, 20255.0Hotel staff is very accommodating, nice and polite. I stayed here for 14 days on business. Asked for my room to be moped as the floors appeared to be a little untidy. It was promptly done and continued through my stay with fresh towel and trashed dumped daily.
- ESE. B. SnodgrassSep 24, 20252.0I always heard good things about this place but I don't think those are still true. It has been updated but it is not warm and welcoming but cold and modern with hard floors made of tile and wood like flooring. While that is the style in, tell my feet that in the middle of the night. The halls have thick padded carpet. My room had been updated but the rust on the arms of the desk chair and dirty caulk shows that they didn't worry about the small stuff. Staff was friendly but my room had a view of the A/C unit even with a pretty empty hotel. Lack of good onsite places to eat was a turn off especially for breakfast. I will not be back.
- ABAmanda BroseusSep 15, 20255.0Friendly staff during our staff, clean and spacious rooms for a hotel, and decent hotel breakfast with the usuals.
