Front desk girl was super nice. Hot chocolate in the lobby was delicious. A tad put off by having to purchase breakfast in the morning though. My thought is that there are too many hotels nearby that include some breakfast items. We have stayed at several in the recent past and this holiday inn doesn’t warrant similar prices without offering something. Overall, the stay was acceptable.

Would absolutely go out of my way to stay here again. We spent a night while traveling with a pet. Staff were very friendly and kind. Everything was spotless and very comfortable. The made to order breakfast was nice and the eating area was great.
Room was clean although 2 of the amenity bottles of soap/shampoo were empty.
The staff on the other hand were incredible! Over a 2 week long cross country trip from Colorado to Maine (and back) with many hotel stays in between, the staff here were A+++
Heather at the front desk was great. Check in was super easy. We got a great room that was large, exceptionally clean and comfortable! Our dog felt at home. Breakfast was ok.. waffle was great, eggs seemed to be a mix and too dry for our tastes. But the hot chocolate bar was adorable and delicious. All in all it was a great stop during a snow storm! Kudos to Heather again!!
