Amy, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Everything was great, except calling the front desk about the restaurant, and she was very stern and rude (like i was inconveniencing her)
SCOTT, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The property needs a lot of help. The hallways smelled of mildew. The first room we had smelled of mildew and we were switched to another room that still somewhat smelled . The rooms just need updating and new caulking and painting and a better smell !
Tom, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We stayed here for graduation weekend and I was very happy with the hotel and the service we received. I appreciated that the hotel did not require a 3 night minimum and didn't gouge the prices like many other hotels in the area. The service was very friendly. And a special shout out to the women that ran the breakfast buffet, they exemplified custoer relations - wonderful employees!
Jennifer, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

The staff was very friendly and helpful, the public areas nicer than the more dated hallways and rooms. Was annoyed that the Expedia rate was $10 more per night than the hotel rate.
Hyland, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Everything was very convenient and pleasant.
Fantasia, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Staff members were very friendly. The room and furnishings are a bit out dated but it was worth the cost for the stay.

Kristin, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Hotel was convenient to places we had reservations. It was a quick check-in; however, clerk did not advise breakfast info nor having phone problems. Tried calling numerous times with no answer. Had to walk to lobby to retrieve info needed.

Great location. Nice rooms but the carpet had debris on it and the breakfast was meagre at best. This morning there weren't any utensils or plates out!

summer, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

It said I could pay cash on Expedia but when I got to the hotel the lady was moody said she didn’t know the new system and when I pulled out my cash she said we do not accept cash we are cashless, it should not still say that well I don’t have money on my debit card and said well I guess I’ll go buy a visa gift card she said we don’t accept gift cards either, so we were left stranded in Bloomington Indiana
Crystal, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

This is a run down hotel. I was expecting better from a Holiday Inn. The ceiling has a crack running all down the room. The drywall tape was coming off. The shower was not draining properly. The toliet seat was discolored from just being old. It was very dirty between the mattress and the wall. The hallways smelt musty. The only good thing is that I didn't have any bed bug bites.
Nichole, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was exactly as the website stated very clean quiet hotel.

6/10 Okay

Staff👍 Property is in need of renovations! Bathroom was the worst!! For a handicap room it should have been in top condition. Shower head wouldn’t stay in place, toilet paper holder feel off the wall. Water drained slow, no fan to limit steam during shower. Enough said.
