Our room was clean and cozy and we loved it! Wish there was access to a microwave for warming up coffee and left overs. There was some articles of clothing and shoes left on benches and corners around the hotel but over all was a nice stay.

Affordable, but you get what you pay for.
This Holiday Inn was ok. Our room was not very clean (the floors didn't look vacuumed, there was a blue smear of something on the bathroom wall, and the balcony was mossy and unusable). The beds and bedding were clean, which is the important part. There were some sketchy people in the building - lots of smokers everywhere and halls with lots of beer can empties out in the open. The lobby did not have enough casual seating for people, and there is a strong smell near the doors to the parking lot. I don't know what it was, but it was a dusty, musky smell. There were a lot of conferences happening which is fine, but lots of garbage left over when everyone left for the day. The pool was fun for the kids, as was the water slide, but the gym could have used some maintenance. For the 4 days I was stuck there, they only had water available on the 1st day. The equipment works well enough, though some of it looks damaged. East Side Mario's is attached to the hotel and is easy to get to, but prices seemed high for the quantity of food you get (all-you-can-eat aside, of course). The staff were all nice. Room cards though were constantly not working (probably my fault for having them too close to my phone, even though they were in different pockets). There were lots of kids in the building on the weekend I was there (including my own) but I wouldn't leave them unattended - there are some shady individuals just lounging inside and outside of the building. I wouldn't stay again
