Our rooms were on a floor that had water damage The hallways smelled and so did the rooms. My son's room had a over powering smell of mold and their was mold in the closet. They did move them.to.another room. Our room their was no any hot water and the shower had more water coming out around the shower head than through it. I work in the travel industry and would never recommend Holiday Inn to anyone.
