    Breakfast was just ok

    4Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 10-5-2023

    Very clean, quiet and served a nice breakfast.

    I received my key and was walking away when I heard the guest behind me say he went to his room and someone was in it. I was pretty shocked. We went to our room and someone was in it too!!! We came down and she gave us a new room. Scary!

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-25-2023

    I liked the location and the breakfast was good.

    I think my wife and I got some flea bites. Not sure if pets are allowed but I saw someone in the morning taking a dog out of their room and outside for a bathroom break.

    5Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 9-19-2023

    Clean - very quiet location.

    Pool was closed. Took us two tries to get keys that worked. Seems like they may be understaffed like everywhere. Could hear everything in other rooms - turn fan on / block door bottom w pillow!

    Very nice and helpful staff, great breakfast, quiet. Tucked away off the main street in a beautiful spot. Close to downtown and the Interstate.

    1LesliePosted on: 5-11-2023

    Stayed 3 nights and hotel staff TEFUSED to give us fresh sheets. We had to call repeatedly 2 days in a row for clean towels snd even toilet paper!!!!

    9RobertPosted on: 2-14-2023

    Clean room, comfortable bed.

    There was a weird looking stain in the shower floor, but I think it was just a sloppy installation.

    10SolomonPosted on: 11-16-2022

    Excellent staff cared for us like we were family while we were in town for my son¿s funeral. Extremely accommodating. Best hotel in hillsborough!

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-20-2022

    Large room and bed was comfy as well as pillows

    9BrendaPosted on: 9-13-2021

    A clean, comfortable hotel. The location is right off the interstate. I would stay there again.

    5Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 8-25-2021

    Good, friendly and responsive staff.

    Hotel caters to many traveling construction crews. They tended to make excessive noise at night. On a good note, the night manager immediately took care of the issue when we reported it.

    3Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 7-10-2021

    once I finally got to my room there was blood on the sheets (the bed was made) so it tells me maids didn¿t really clean the room. Lastly there was never anyone at the front desk and again no one for checkout Friday morning

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 2-18-2021

    The staff was very helpful and friendly. They were very busy due to the weather conditions in the area but still took time to answer my questions.

    9James TPosted on: 8-27-2020

    clean, like new. Helpful staff. secluded location.

    lack of good restaurants in the neighborhood.

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 6-30-2020

    This hotel was in the perfect location for us for our event. It was really clean, felt safe. Socially distanced from other guests.

    Wishing they could have had more than coffee for breakfast. I know, Covid19. Not many people staying here yet but employees were hard to find when we needed assistance both checking in and leaving. The employee WAS noted out front in the morning smoking

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 2-28-2020

    Beds and pillows are comfortable. Clean room and nice staff.

    1Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 1-31-2020

    It’s hard to find something positive about this property

    Took three attempts to find a room to store functions. This property is a one star at best. I have never seen such a run down Holiday Inn. Disrepair And dirty
