“Stay away”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed February 20, 2013

Horrible check in for a gold member, basically told wait three hours for your room, then when that girl left the desk, I tried again and was told thank you for being a member, thank you for staying here, of course we can get check you in and get you to your room. This hotel is outdated, has major internet serice issues, so don't count on doing much business from your room. The bathroom fixtures are old, the caulking for the tub was disgusting and the noise level was like being in a college dorm. This one is no different then the one in Grantville, tired and worn out. Price is not an issue with me but thank goodness due to the event I have here it was less than $100 a night, because it's not worth more than that.

Room Tip: It really doesn't matter where they put you, the noise level is horrible as you could most anyth...

Dear Wkrupa,

Thank you for taking the time to write another review of your most recent stay with us. Your first review (January 4, 2012) titled “One of the nicer Holiday Inn’s in the area” is what we expected your second experience to be like. We’re disappointed that we failed to meet your expectations with this visit - my sincere apologies. It’s my responsibility to ensure all our guests have a wonderful stay - any inconvenience we cause must be addressed prior to departure. Since I didn’t have the opportunity to meet you prior to departure, I left you a message in an effort to discuss the specifics of your visit further. I can assure you, if we have another opportunity to accommodate you next year, it will be like the one from January 2012.

Service Recovery Tip: Give us the opportunity to correct any inconvenience you may experience prior to departure and we will make it right - guaranteed!

Sincerely,

Randall J. Stuart, CHA, CHME
General Manager

“Top Notch Service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

I booked three rooms here for a college team competition. I thought I left my bag in the hotel after getting the students home, and the hotel staff were very helpful in looking for the bag. The housekeeping supervisor even came back to the hotel to look and all me personally. I was very impressed with the service from the hotel manager, front desk personnel, and housekeeping supervisor. Even when my bag was found in the rental van later, I was not made to feel bad about my confusion. I will definitely stay here again.

“It's like coming home.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 13, 2013

The pleasant and helpful staff make me feel like family. I will definitely keep coming back. The proximity to the airport is also one of the reasons I stay at this location. The shuttle service is great. Management goes out of their way to make sure my stay is top shelf. Lounge and restaurant staff are great at what they do. I look forward to staying here a couple of times a year.

4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 13, 2013

I stay in hotels about 18 days of the month. All hotels are about the same... Bed, shower, room-service... The management at this hotel is probably one of the best that I have seen in many years. I stayed only one night, had a minor issue that the management took care of very efficiently. I am extremely pleased with the hotel and would recommend it to any business traveler.
