Huge Disappointment
Stayed here two years ago and it was cheap and cheerful. This time it was awful. Only one elevator worked. There was mold throughout the shower, rooms on our floor had no door handles and it didn't matter what time of day someone was always smoking pot at the entrance. I was later told that it's also a refugee hotel which makes sense as the place was completely worn out. No complaint about refugees but having to share The only elevator with numerous kids, toys and garbage isnt really my thing I would never go back.

The hotel is under construction (remodeling) so there is a lot of random stuff in the hallways, but otherwise the room was completely comfortable The one concern on our room was that the lock was not very reliable. Sometimes our keys worked and other times they did not, this was a little frustrating but not too big of a deal.

Do not recommend
Arrived and was told that they couldn’t make up key cards. They offered to hold onto our luggage while we went to dinner. Upon return, we checked in a d received our key cards. However, strangely, a security person accompanied us to our rooms to ensure we could get in. When we arrived on our floor, we were greeted with a construction site. Drywall dust everywhere, mattresses and bits of furniture strewn through the hall. When we arrived to our respective rooms, we found the entire room full of dust and my colleagues said that the toilet in his room was used but not cleaned. I was aware that this Holiday Inn had some poor reviews before booking, but I didn’t expect to see anything as bizarre as this. It’s great that they’re renovating, but they can’t expect guests to literally sleep in a construction site. The kind attendant at the front desk refunded our credit cards. We booked nice accommodations at another property which we should’ve done from the get-go.

Bad hotel
We were placed on the floor that was under renovation. Why would you place guest our floors that are being renovated what they should’ve done was renovated half the hotel and place guest in rooms that are not renovated We had to walk down six flights of stairs, because the elevator wasn’t working. We wasn’t informed of this by the hotel staff I recommend that no one. I repeat no one stays at this hotel at all if they gave me a free night, I would not stay at this hotel.

It would have been nice to know the property was under construction when booking. There was literally no warning or indication until arriving. Also in a building with at least 12 floors why shove everyone on the floor that’s under construction!?!? Not a good move! The Elevator was extremely slow and inconvenient, which took me to the 6th floor (my floor) which was completely under construction. Tools, wood, nail, paint and workers everywhere. Extremely unsafe and again no warning at all from the front desk! Then the workers didn’t even know which rooms were occupied so I was woken up at least 4 times by people trying to enter my room; how is this allowed to happen!!?? The heater was blasting in the room with no way to turn it down, the engineer had to just shut the A/C completely off;NICE! If that wasn’t enough, I left to get lunch and came back to find my room wouldn’t unlock! I go down to the front desk the lady swiped my card and sent me back up. It didn’t work again! I went up three times before she finally said “oh my bad, I forgot to update something; it should work now” Like thanks for the inconvenience. All in all would definitely NOT RECOMMEND! It’s a shame you can take my money and demand I pay using only certain methods but can’t do your guest the simple courtesy of telling them before hand! By the way we do not accept these forms of payment.
