Negative Reviews
negative:
Little recognition of IHG Elite Status
This does not affect all guests but for the guests concerned, this proved to be a negative at this hotel. Guests who have stayed multiple times at the Holiday Inn hotels receive a higher level status with every stay. Guests have complained that this hotel was not good at recognizing guests with a higher status and did not afford them the elite and prioritized service they were entitled to.
negative:
Customer-service not at its usual standard
In many reviews regarding the Holiday Inn hotel, the customer-service and friendly staff have been praised extensively. This hotel however has not received such reviews. Staff were said to at least get the job done but not with as much friendliness as what would be expected and appreciated.
negative:
Attention to detail lacking
The general cleanliness of the rooms at this hotel have not been well reviewed. Simple attention to detail when it comes to cleaning and washing of rooms will go a long way.
