“Great rooms at a decent price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2010

We were traveling from Washington DC to Florida and developed mechanical problems that caused us to stay at this hotel. The check in was friendly and efficient and the hotel is located near two restaurants. When we first went to the room we were assigned, the door was open and the TV on. The front desk explained that they had problems with their maid service leaving the rooms open but it was safe and okay to enter.

The room was spotless, well stocked, good size and comfortable. The only issue I saw is that the tile they chose for the bathroom will make you slip if your wearing your sneakers or other rubber based sole. The hotel was quite and afforded a good nights sleep.

The hot breakfast was great, but the timing 6a to 9:30a is a bit too short, should be till 10a. The food was good but was running out when I got down stairs at 9:05.

I would stay here again and recommend it for travelers.

Stayed May 2010, travelled on business

I am happy to hear that our staff made your unexpected stay with us a positive experience. It is nice to know that we can make you feel at home during your travels. Thank you for commenting on the housekeeping and breakfast issues. We cannot fix the problems when we do not know about them. We will look into extending our breakfast hours during peak times for our guest. Thank you for taking the time to write about your stay.

“Fine”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2009

It was time to pull over during our drive to FL. I was using the discount flyer that you pick up on the turnpikes. I went across to the Hampton Inn and asked him to match the HI Express rate. No dice. Lost a night revenue and I went back to the HI Express. It was fine for a short nights rest.....

“Good for a business trip”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2009

The hotel is in a convenient place. The exterior and parking lot are clean. The lobby is small but nice. There is a desk on the side with a computer for guest use and there is also free wifi service. I was greeted warmly and checked in quickly. There was no mention of a complimentary breakfast but I knew that there was. Room was on the small side but it was clean. The room had two double beds, two chairs and a desk and office chair. The AC was blowing right on me in bed and there was no option to change it. The floor in the bathroom was small and looked clean but the floor felt sticky. The pool was clean, lots of towels were available. Breakfast was good, love those cinnamon buns and checkout was a breeze.
I don't know if there were other room options but the room I had was perfect for someone on business, not for a family with two teenagers. Staff was friendly and I would recommend this place if you were in the area for business.

“DIrty Rooms!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 July 2009

Recently my family & I stayed here after a very long trip in the car with 3 kids under 4yrs old. We've stayed in Holiday Inn's before and never had a problem until now. When we checked into our room the blankets on the bed were dirty & there was DRIED BLOOD on the bathroom floor! Disgusting!! We called the front desk & the young lady apologized & said she would come up & clean it but there was no one else except her working that night. So she switched us to another room a few doors down. When we entered that room there were popcorn kernels on the floor, under the beds, there was hair in bathroom sink & around the base of the toilet bowl,there was hair on the comforters of the beds, candy wrappers under the a/c.. We were too tired & exhausted to leave so we stayed & when we woke & went down for breakfast there was nothing left because one entire family wiped everything out & nothing was being refilled, it was riduculous. If you are in the area try the Hampton Inn next store, you might have better luck there!

“devolution”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 June 2009

Stayed here before and all was A-OK. This past visit was not up to par. The front desk was unmanned most of the time. There were no towels at the pool--so we used room towels and requested extra towels, which request was taken at front desk but never delivered upon. "Suite" is cramped and bathroom tiny. A Motel 6 experience for $142.
