Great Victoria experience

Stayed for almost 2 weeks and I experienced a great service by all staff members, specially Front Desk team. I visited Victoria to help my son settled down and Holiday Inn Elk Lake was probably one of the best choices I made, extremely well communicated/located, easy access. I'll be coming back again for sure

We had a great stay over Christmas! They packed snack bags for us since the restaurant was closed. Very friendly front desk, with easy communication by text. My only concerns was the cleaning staff entered our room with the “do not disturb” sign on the door. Otherwise great stay!

My room wasn’t ready when I was checking in (well after the estimated check-in time). There was a pile of dirty dishes outside the 2nd floor elevator from the time I checked in and it was still there when I got back from my night out. I had a room with an adjoining door and I could hear someone in another room snoring all night.
