My husband and I booked 2 rooms for 4 nights. We booked it for us and for my in laws. We were there for my little bil's navy graduation and to spend some time with him before he leaves. Anyway, the day we checked in the receptionist gave us our cards for 1 room, and my husband and I left to go grab our stuff from the car. We were tired from the car ride and totally forgot about the other set of cards for the second room, and the receptionist didn't even stop us from walking out the door. There wasn't anyone else checking in other than us I think, but we didn't quite like how she left us hanging like that. The guests that stayed by the side door entrance, I'm assuming, smoked a lot of weed or something. It really wasn't a pleasant smell and we had kids. I know bugs/insects can be anywhere, but our room had ants. They had breakfast everyday which was nice. The service phone in our room didn't seem to work at all. Staying here wasn't the best, but it wasn't the worst either. Would we come back? Probably not. We have stayed at other holiday inns before and they were a lot nicer than here. We do like how there were restaurants and stores around the area, so that was a plus for us. Anyway, our stay was okay.

Bedbugs and got bit several times. Took picture of one on pillow and front desk only offered to switch rooms and no discount. However, if I applied to the rewards program I could get credit for one night. Yes that was the front desks rebuttal to making them aware of the issue was.

Starting with usb ports broken and others not working, spider Webs on the wall, drinking water was left open in fridge, bathroom toilet was nasty, the safe was not excessible to use it was locked, and the ice machine didn’t work on the second floor had to go to the fourth floor. Was given another room and only checked USB ports they was broken also so stayed in room I originally cleaned this was an horrible experience.
