Overall the property was nice. The pool was closed and the ice maker on the lower level was not working. Continental breakfast could be improved by offering fresh fruit. Nice grassy areas around the property to walk a dog. Suggest putting in a dog waste station.

Disliked: Amenities
The facility is old. We didn’t even stay. Check in and it was nasty. Our non smoking room very much smelled like smoke. The shower had mold all over it and the ceiling looked like it could fall in at any moment. The staff was terrible. Asked for more bedding and they wanted us to come get it….. But we checked out 15 minutes after we checked in and went somewhere else that was better.

Decent hotel near Kaufman Stadium. It could use some upgrades, but it was fine fir what we needed. Getting on and off the property is, frankly, hazardous because of passing traffic. The roadway traffic makes entering traffic quite tricky. Decent breakfast, nice staff, and reasonable rates will allow me to return despite the traffic issue.

There was one working ice machine for the entire building. The staff lied about the pool being heated instead of just saying maybe it wasn't working and they continued to pretend it was heated the entire stay. Our curtains in our room had 30 plus holes in them like there was a gun fight and one of our bathroom lights was out as well. When you stay at a Holiday inn, you expect a certain level of quality and this lacked all of that.
