“DON'T DO IT!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2011
2
people found this review helpful

Was in North Carolina for a recruiting weekend at ECU. Unfortunately, all the hotels in Greenville were booked due to a football game. Booked for two nights, only stayed one after our experience. Checked in very late on Friday September 23. Toilet was dirty, shower ledge was filled with soap scum and mold, shower rod was falling off the wall, and a non smoking room smelled of smoke and had an ashtray on the desk. Breakfast was supposed to be until 09:30 a.m. Went down for breakfast at 08:45 and the typical Holiday Inn Fast Start Breakfast was a NO START! There was nothing, no hot items, cinnamon buns, or bread for toast, everything was gone! When we asked the breakfast attendent about it, she said, "When it is gone, it is gone,and it takes to long to make more"! I had already canceled my Saturday night stay. Actually this Holiday Inn did me a huge favour! Stayed at another hotel chain with much nicer rooms and a breakfast for a lot less! I have been a Platinum Gold member for years, this really made me think about the Holiday Inn Chain!

“Great staff, lousy food”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2011 via mobile

person found this review helpful

Stayed here while attending a wedding in August. The staff are very friendly, very cheerful and helpful. They really make you feel welcome. A maid staffer even checked with me personally to make sure I was happy with the cleanliness of my room. The rooms are fine, nothhing special.

However, the breakfast food is another matter. The fruit was a little mealy, and all the beverages are watered down and gross. The coffee is really weak as well.

Go for the service, but eat breakfast somewhere else.

“clean & pleasant, close to everything”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2011

The hotel was quite nice & fairly new-seeming. The staff seemed attentive & pleasant. Free access to gym across street. Near movie theaters, Wal-mart & Golden Corral.

“Not the best HIE but not bad—Grade B”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 July 2011

The sparse lobby was freezing cold with excessive air conditioning—a pet peeve of mine. The room was a good size, but only had one easy chair and the work table task chair, for seating. The bed and bedding were not up to snuff, and the tub surround has water damage. So basically, it is OK but about due for a reno. There is a pool but it is right on the parking lot.
The only place to eat at the suburban interchange location was the Golden Corral buffet, which was pretty terrible.
