    There is no coffee at the "free breakfast". There is no television, but there are two…read morerefrigerators. It is so noisy, it sounds like a bowling alley is upstairs. Every 30 seconds a bell rings. If there was a television, maybe you could drown it out. No way you can sleep here. There's a coffee maker in the room but it doesn't work. They say they have been brewing coffee at the " free" breakfast for the last 30 minutes, but still no coffee. I've been awake all night. Also, there's no hot water in the shower. I would have been more comfortable sleeping in the car.

    This hotel was a complete embarrassment. Booked two conjoining rooms for my wife and I as well as…read moremy mother for a cross country move. I was ensured that we would have conjoining, nonsmoking rooms. When we got to the hotel around 12:30 am, the front desk worker said that they didn't promise us conjoining rooms. They also charged us for our cat, even though we paid for her fee online. The first thing my wife and I found in our room was a dirty, used face mask sitting right on the desk. After check in, we discovered that the water was not working, and they still allowed us to check in knowing this the case. After this was resolved around 2:30 in the morning, I found numerous hairs in the bathtub, and the towels had countless stains in a range of colors, with the floor towel being the worst of all. Our room was CLEARLY a smoking room, and every aspect of the room was dirty. This hotel was a colossal health hazard in every way. I am someone who rarely reviews any place of business, but if only one traveler reads this and stays away, it would be worth posting. I only wish I took photos to document this terrible experience for you. DO. NOT. STAY. HERE.

    the worst hotel experience. Becky was awesome. every morning at about 5:30am staff congregated in…read morehallway for their assignments for the day. they were very loud. laughing and talking and yelling from one end of the hall to the next. owner is absolutely a first class jerk. he would show up early and if an employee need to be repremanded it was done right there in the hallway and the way he talked to them was absolutely awful. yelling and screaming this all very early in the morning. his wife was just as bad. walking through the place all dressed to th nines. I did laundry one day and had my little chihuahua with me which she stayed right next to me and she told manager there was a little white dog running loose that needed to be put up. I left there after going in hospital. my brother fixed a small place on the wall my other puppy scratched and painted it. that was the only damage was done. owner was replacing carpet in all the rooms in the hotel but called while I was recovering in rehab from deaths door telling me I owed him 11,000 dollars for new carpet. he called repeatedly. I will never stay in a holiday inn again because when I lodged a complaint against him they did nothing. one other thing, construction workers stayed there on weekends. they were allowed to cook out and drink out in the parking lot right outside guests windows being loud and obnoxious till all hours. and the heating ac unit did not work properly.

    We didn't even stay. We e booked a room with a king bed two weeks prior to our visit. When we got…read moreto our room it was a room with queen beds. We went back downstairs and were told rudely that they had overbooked and that was all they had. We were there at 3pm check in. The manager also told us that it happens all the time. Oh and one more thing. When we told them we wouldn't be staying there the reply was "you didn't lay on the bed did you?" Never again. We weren't offered a discount on the room. When we asked if there might be other rooms available in the waters we were told (rudely again) you might be able to find something. But it's a holiday so all the hotels will be like this. I stepped outside and had a room booked at the Days Inn in Kodak in 5 minutes. King bed.

    Very disappointing!! They advertise "FREE BREAKFAST", on-site laundry facility, ice machine, non…read moresmoking rooms. The Free Breakfast does not exist. It is posted prominently on the main sign you see from the highway. They also have a hand written sign on the wall in the lobby stating "no breakfast after 9:30am". Truth is, they do not offer breakfast at all, anytime. They do have a laundry facility. Problem is, that every washer and dryer has an "OUT OF ORDER" sign on it. They do have an ice machine. It also has an "OUT OF ORDER" sign on it. When I asked the person at the desk about ice, I was told I could buy ice at the store on the corner. The "non-smoking" room we received smelled like smoke, cigarette burns on the bed spread, burns on the bathroom counter and tub. The room did include an ironing board. But no iron. I called to speak with the manager/owner. My expectation was, we could come to some sort of compromise on the bill. She was quick to provide a verbal apology. Beyond that, all she had was poor excuses as to why all of these issue occurred. And that they where out of her control. She made it very clear, they do not have to follow the same rules for advertising and services that most chains do. She also said there was "nothing she could do". It's always disappointed when the person in charge, uses this phrase. If you are the owner/manager, there is always something you can do. You are choosing not to make it right. I explained she has the ability to make a reasonable adjustment of the charges. She said no. I advised her that all I can do as a consumer, is not return and provide honest feedback online to help others avoid the mistake I made. I see now after reading multiple reviews, they have no interest in providing a quality place to stay, ONLY IN COLLECTING $$ FOR IT.
