Clean room. No trouble checking in or parking. Only problem was the a/c didn’t work but the staff repaired it in a timely manner. No continental breakfast was disappointing.
I would like to recognize the front desk person Marcus. He really made us feel welcome & comfortable. It's employees like him who makes us want to come back again & again to Holiday Inn!
Upon entering Hotel Room 212 noticed inferior smell which caused breathing problems. Immediately contacted hotel staff and requested another room. Hotel staff indicated that there were renovations completed and the tub had been refinished causing an epoxy type odor such as some form of chemical agent. Moved to Room 219 and again noted same type of smell. At this point, felt there was no one to assist and due to travelling to this area for an Softball World Series my granddaughter was to participate in, we stayed. The next morning, Saturday, November 2, 2024, stressed how bad the room situation was and expected someone to resolve this issue. We left to attend the tournament. Arrived back at the hotel in the evening and no one provided any resolution to this matter. Due to hotels completely booked in the area, we had no choice but to stay as the trip home was over 4 hours. Definitely would not recommend this hotel to anyone and firmly believe a reimbursement should be provided.
Liked how clean and modern the facility was. Breakfast was very clean and good. Unfortunately, there was one person who was the cook, server and clean up crew so food was not replenished immediately until someone up front came to help. Appreciate that we’re able to accommodate me and my son after our original reservation at another hotel was lost.
I had a booked room and live out of state was about 30 minutes before I arrived to the hotel i received a call saying they gave me room to someone else and had no other rooms available.

No one was at the front desk for 20 minutes.
They gave me a handicap room and I got bitten by a bug!
Newly renovated hotel. Bright and welcoming. Booked it because it had a bar and grill inside. After driving all day escaping the hurricanes path we just wanted something quick and easy. Went to the bar to order food. Said it was open tul 10 pm. It was 8:30. Bartender said the grill was already closed down, but u can order from the appetizer menu. Totally good with that. Placed my order for pork sliders and chips and queso. Almost paid for it when the cook came out and said she didn’t have any more pork or tacos. But could fill the chips or do a shrimp appetizer. I said nope that will not work. Went back to the room and ordered from the food place down the road. If the grill is open til 10 I would expect to get menu items up until 9:15 or so. Because of the renovations there are a lot of conexes in the parking lot. Which is fine, but there was hardly any parking left. Once those are gone, there should be more parking available.
