The front desk check in was superb. He was fast and friendly. Sad that there were no cinnamon rolls which was my main reason for booking with Holiday Inn.

Don’t go there!
They’re pro BS regarding housekeeping. I asked 3 time to have my room cleaned without any success. I really don’t recommend that place. Location is nice the issue is the service personnel. When they finally did my room few day before I leave they left me only hand Towel to dry myself after a shower… see picture.

Worth the stop
Clean, convenient, comfortable and I’m always a sucker for a shower with great water pressure. This was just an overnight pit stop during a longer road trip, but it’s a place you’ll feel safe with your family
