Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property was not clean. The floors in the hallways and the room were not vacuumed. The room was very small. The air stale and the bed linens were not clean and did not fit the bed properly. The reception staff were pleasant but not interested in your experience. The housekeeping staff were not able to speak English and did not make eye contact or respond to general pleasantries such as “good morning”. This Holiday Inn does not meet the standard of service we have experienced in multiple Holiday Inns around the world. Very disappointing and I cannot recommend it.
