Clean, comfy rooms! Excellent customer service! Hot, fresh breakfast. The only reason I gave 4 stars is that the pool area is suffocatingly hot and humid. The pool is not refreshing. It’s as warm as a jacuzzi. This definitely needs to be addressed.

Well worth the stop. As a former hotel manager, I can confidently say this hotel is well-maintained and the staff friendliness was beyond my expectations - and that is saying something.

Our hotel and room exceeded our expectations when we walked into our room. Clean, strong and hot shower pressure, extra sheets/pillows/blankets, etc. Very clean in lobby and breakfast area. Attendant running breakfast was phenomenal, friendly, and hardworking. Huge breakfast variety, hot and fresh! Did not see the pool area. Parking easy. Would stay there again.

I got greeted by the most beautiful, warmest smile from Linsey at the front desk. She had me checked in, in no time at all. This is one of the best Holiday Inns I have stayed at. Nice, quite, clean rooms and big comfortable beds.
