We stopped on our way from PA to NC. We were welcomed by Jennifer, an excellent ambassador for Holiday Inn, who was very friendly, professional and helpful. The hotel is conveniently located right off I-95 with a gas station close by also. The room decor is average, but spacious. The breakfast buffet had great selections, and the staff was very... More

We were so tired from driving and my wife caught a flu, and we stopped at the Holiday inn and Shaneika and Jennifer went out of their way to make my family as happy as they can. The kids loved the pool and it was great to have a snack counter for the kids. My kids also loved the upgrade... More

This hotel has a convenient location and typical amenities. I didn't get a chance to use the indoor pool, but it looked good at a glance. Breakfast was fairly typical, rooms were very spacious. While the lobby and breakfast area were fairly nice, the rooms were not quite as nice (worn carpet, bathtub not well-maintained). There are very few choices... More

Clean, comfortable, safe place to stay for the night. Great breakfast selection which is free, complimentary. Hot & cold items to choice from. Low hallway noise, comfortable beds, little light 'glowing' from outside into the bedroom, clean bed/bathroom, nice shower. Heated pool & hot tub was really 'heated' and felt wonderful after a long day on the road. There is... More

We stopped here on our way from NJ to FL. Hotel is located right off of I-95. We had a 1 BR with a pull out couch in the living room. The room was clean and spacious.

We stayed at this Holiday Inn on our way back to NY from Florida. The room was clean, but had a weird smell to it when we first walked in. The carpets needed to be vacuumed in the corners, seems like it has been overlooked for quite a while. The other issue I had was the lack of hot water... More

We arrived late and once we were able to confirm our reservations we were able to get checked in. We found the staff to be helpful. Our room was in good condition and quiet. Our room overlooked the entry so the lights were very bright; however the blackout curtains were adequate in keeping most of the light out of the... More

Rooms were clean and breakfast was okay. They had a fairly good selection for breakfast. There is no place to eat dinner or lunch inside the hotel although they offer vending machine microwaveable food. We ate at the restaurant directly across the road which was okay. Good thing we didn't bring the grand kids because they would have wanted to... More
