We were put in a dirty room. Steven at the front desk sorted out the issue and ungraded our room. The water in the shower was lukewarm and the flow was weak. The next night our room key wouldnt work. Steven sorted this out too. Holiday Inn hotels used to be impressive. Great breakfast, clean.cotton sheets and clean rooms. This is no longer the case. We will not be using this brand again. I wish every employee was like Steven.

For the most part our stay was great. Front desk staff was great but we did get a call at 10:30 pm to confirm our late checkout. Zzzzzzzz. On another note loved the pool but it would have been nice to have cushions on chairs. Also we came down to use pool next more and pool was not open due to cleaning. I would say over an hour and half beyond when it was supposed to open. Cleaning techniques looked thorough but hindered the fact that the attendant lite cigarette after cigarette while vacuuming pool. Ummmm? No wonder it took so long. If you're posting an open time then cleaning should be done long before 9.
