I am a Priority Club member of this hotel chain, so I have nothing against Holiday Inn. I stayed 2 nights for business. The hotel is remodeled and looks good, rooms are nice and clean, beds are comfy, staff is courteous and the location is good for restaurants. I know they cannot help that they are next to the highway, but traffic noise could bother some people. What seems to lack is common "service" sense. First, don't have your smoking area in the main entrance of the hotel. It's a long walkway to the entrance and to walk through the smoke and stink is not very customer friendly. Breakfast starts at 6 a.m. according the information in the room, yet when I went down I was told 6:30 a.m. Not a big deal, but when when you have to sit for 35 minutes more while they set up the buffet, that's a problem. The wait staff went out of their way to try and make it right. Also, one day there is coffee in the lobby at 6 a.m. and the next no coffee after waiting until 6:20 a.m. I also like to work out. The eliptical sounded like and felt like a train rolling down the tracks and weight training machines are limited. No room to stretch and they need some hand weights.

We stayed there on Thursday night, Got a fair rate being a walkin customer. The front desk clerk John was very helpful. Easy checkin , the room was great, Hotel doesnt look like the pictures posted, it had underwent a complete remodel and is very nice.

Located on the interstate, expect hwy noise. Ask for a room opposite the hwy for some relief, but it's still noticable. The rooms have been getting updated w/ the worn furniture getting replaced. Hit or miss on old or new flat screen TV's. A bottled Coke is about $2.75 from the front desk...hard to find a pop machine, but after getting moved(switched) to the 10th fl(top), we found one w/ $1.25 cokes...No biggie, just a bit of "BS" when the front desk clerk knew we were on the only(?) floor with a pop machine and I griped about a pricey bottle of Coke...Also the maid could be more thourogh...See pics. On the plus side, the hotel is conveniently located w/ many national chain eateries nearby(walkable). Priceline gets you a room for $65 plus fees - maybe less? unless there's a Nascar race...My advice: bring earplugs & don't dine downstairs...

We stayed one night and enjoyed our stay at this hotel. We were given a non smoking room however when we entered room it smelled strongly of smoke. We asked for another room which was smoke free. The room was clean, spacious, had a comfortable bed and a flat screen tv. There was road noise but it didn't bother me. No free breakfast. Close to many restaurants and other shopping. I would stay again.
