The Television did not work. By the time we discovered it , it was too late to fix. Also, there was not a phone in the room. Had to go down to the lobby to report the issues and was told that some of the rooms did not have phones because they did not work. Not very safe if you have an emergency in the room and you could not call the front desk.

Overall the Hotel is nice and very clean! The main issue we had both times we have stayed at this location was the TV. The first time a new remote solved the problem after 1 night. Unfortunately this stay's TV experience was Terrible as we were unable to watch anything on the second night and morning following even after someone had come up to the room on the first night and worked on the connection. I feel after spending 509.00 for a 2 night stay in a 2 queen room with my family that the TV should never be an issue. I have traveled for years, own 2 time shares and have stayed at may resorts and Holiday Inn establishments and I feel that IHG Corporate should be aware that this property has issues. I travel from the Dallas area often due to the college being in close proximity when I visit my child and will strongly consider another hotel in the 3 weeks when I plan to return again. Thank you.

Great stay

We had a great check-in experience, and we were treated wonderfully by the waitress/bartender named Rosie in the hotel restaurant. We’ve stayed many times at this hotel in Abilene and always enjoy it.
