We enjoyed staying here except for one thing- our room smelled like dirty feet. I went to the front desk to ask for sanitizing spray and deodorant spray, and the receptionist gave me both, which I used in the room. The smell continued so the next day I ask housekeeping if something could be done but it stunk the entire stay, and the place was full, so we had to deal with it. On the positives, breakfast was great and the staff were friendly. I would stay here again but in a different room.

Had no issues with the condition of the room and the breakfast was one of the best Ive had while staying at a hotel. I do have issues with being billed 3 times on my bank card for a 1 night stay and as of today having 2 of those charges "pending" for 6 days now. Good hotel but check your banking information after you leave for hidden "pending charges" your told nothing about.

Finished were consistent with other Holidsy Inn Properties. Those with sensitive noses or lung sensitivity wouldn’t bode well here. Just smells like wet animal. Maybe the carpets were freshly cleaned- but very humid and smell of wet animal was consistent. The door doesn’t open well. I had to shove it open with my shoulder to get it open. The shower/ tub stopper doesn’t work. It’s on for 1/2 shower and 1/2 tub option which is low pressure. It was an easy location and easy price point, so that was appreciated.
