Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
There are lots of choices for breakfast, including healthy, ones yogurt, fruit, etc. there are eggs as well and many other things. The lady was really nice. It was all clean and well organized.
Staff friendly and helpful, the hair dryer was missing from my room and they brought me a replacement in less than 5 minutes—awesome customer service!
Clean, safe, quiet, comfortable hotel!
Stayed for the pool and hot tub, and the free breakfast. All was fine, the breakfast was great. The door to our room wouldn't open normally, but the lady at the front desk knew right away what to do. It was pretty quiet. Kids loved swimming, and the beds were clean and comfy.
We enjoyed our weekend stay. We had the breakfast every day and were very satisfied with the quality of the food. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

During Helene storm and the staff was amazing thru all the troubles.
I will definitely stay again in the future
Was very pleased with my stay at this hotel. The breakfast in the morning is delicious as well and it starts early and doesn’t end too early like most places so I didn’t have to wake up at the crack of dawn just to get some breakfast. The staff were friendly and the pool was clean and fun.
The folks arr always very helpful and friendly. The hotel is always clean. Breakfast is good also. The lady that worked the breakfast on Saturday was very pleasant. She hustled are break so well. She never stopped except to ask each of us if everything was OK. I wish i had employees like her when I had my business. We have stayed there several times and the employees and amenities keep us coming back.

It was clean and the staff was kind but the area had limited dining and we had to ask twice for receipts
Great hotel!
First time I had stayed there. Every employee that I ran into there is friendly and helpful. Hotel is spotless and the bed was very comfortable. Next time I go back home to visit I will definitely stay there again.
This Holiday Inn was very impressive. It was easy check in and the room was impeccably clean and sanitized. The location was very convenient to the place I had to visit. There were plenty of local businesses nearby for anything I needed and plenty of restaurants with a various choice of menus. I will definitely stay there on my next visit.
The hotel room was spotless. The breakfast was delicious. Very friendly staff. We arrived early and they were kind enough to get
a room ready for us. Would hoghly recommend this hotel.
