THEY CHARGE YOU FOR PARKING AT THE DESK AFTER YOU BOOK..... AN ADDITIONAL 15$ CHARGE
I booked with this hotel SPECIFICALLY for a jacuzzi in room suite. I called the hotel to confirm they had the rooms, after booking and confirming, I get a text saying it was successfully booked. 2 days later I arrive to my room with my wife for our little anniversary get away. Only to find out, they have me in a standard 2 bed room. NOTHING to what I paid over 100$ for. I could've gotten this room for literally half the cost elsewhere but chose this location for the room specifically. The front desk woman (sweet as ever and tried to help) couldn't help with my specific room requested, showed my receipt and all. She was only able to give me a king bed as a "upgrade"....which isnt an upgrade if THATS WHAT I PAID FOR.... was non refundable so they knew i was screwed.....The whole experience was embarassing.... THE ONE THING SHE WANTED.....and I got made to look lile a fool.
They "say" they gonna make "improvements" in their comments under the reviews ive read this morning before making this and let me tell you..... NOT A SINGLE IMPROVEMENT FROM WHAT IVE READ HAS BEEN DONE FROM WHAT IVE SEEN AND DELT WITH! Holiday Inn will most likely never see my money again. Treat your guests BETTER! WE are the reason youre in business!
Dont waste your time with this hotel, the bathtub isnt cleaned properly, elevators or barely functioning and all you hear is the traffic...... save yourself and your loved ones any headache or embarrassment....

We booked through third party website. Still got a good deal. The room was well furnished. Quite a big room compared to the cost. It included microwave, freeze, and all other facilities. They also offered complementary breakfast with good selection of items. Those were delicious as well. They charge for parking and it was $10 per night.

I like staying at Holiday Inn, and this is my second time staying at this location — but also my last.
Since May, they have introduced a parking fee, which makes absolutely no sense, and it’s clear they want to drive away guests traveling by car.
The $10 fee itself isn’t the issue, but it’s a matter of principle. It’s really a shame that a hotel charges for parking. I’ve never seen anything like this anywhere in the world.
