Just got back from a 4 night stay here. The 4 stars are for the staff as they were very friendly…read more Some of our issues were out of their control so I cannot blame them. The room deserves 3 stars or less. Front desk and check in were smooth. We were staying here in a wedding block of rooms so I am not sure how many they had. They sent us to room 318 first and immediately upon stepping in we knew something was up. Took a minute to figure out that the smoke detector was chirping every 10 seconds or so. Maintenance has gone for the day. Well that just ain't gonna cut it cause I already have trouble sleeping. Back to the front desk and she asks if I mind being behind the elevator as it is the only unoccupied room in the block. 122. We take it. The room is clean but has a odor we cannot seem to figure out. I happen to walk by the microwave and something catches my eye. Open it up and WTF... a left over half eaten chicken dinner is inside. Throw it out and open windows. They also have a very modern lamp sitting on the desk but we cannot get it to turn on. I look underneath and WTF... it is unplugged because there is no outlet anywhere to plug it into. And the elevator outside our room wasn't even close to being the issue. It was a quiet elevator. The issue was the ice machine that backed up to one of our walls and WTF...it had a drain pump that cycled on and off all night long and vibrated the wall. Just move it to the adjacent wall so it doesn't disturb anyone. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. Breakfast was ok but could have used some fresh fruit choices. Did not use any other facilities. I know all hotel stays are hit or miss but I think I would try someplace else if possible. Not sure what the other choices may be but look into them. P.S.- We found out 1 day after our check in that they put someone else in our group in room 318. Chirping still going on.

I paid extra for an extra large King bedroom. This room was awful. The TV did not work. The water did not drain in the bathtub. The water did not drain in the sink. The mold in the bathtub was ridiculous. There were dirty footprints on the floor where I guess they walked after they mopped. The towels were old and dirty. For Holiday Inn this place is disgusting. When we talk to the staff, they just blew it off. I don't know if Holiday Inn owns this hotel or not, but they really need to look at this place.

I attended MSU's 2nd Annual Vineyard Establishment Workshop. What a perfect place to have such an…read moreevent. The presenters spoke to the 30 plus attendees about topics related to growing grapes in Mississippi. The crowd then moved into the surrounding vineyard for a demonstration on proper pruning required for maximum grape production. The owner, Greg Dedeaux, shared all he knew about the vineyard operation and showed us the site of a winery that will complement the already perfect venue. I can't wait.... also plan to You Pick some muscadines in August.

We struggled a little in the beginning because of the contract, and the manager of the facility was a stickler for by the book, but other than that we had a wonderful event. It was safe and beautiful just as the others were before ours. We had heard scary stories, but our nerves were calmed after seeing for ourselves. We have even come back to do community events here. We realize why everyone comes to this place. Miss Sheena was very helpful and made sure that we understood things and how they worked. She was also great at helping us plan and have resources. She was patient even when we were freaking out. Hope this helps!
