"Oasis in a storm!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
In early February my daughter and two grandchildren were driving on 75 heading to Florida for a visit when they were rear ended on the expressway there was trauma and shock. The closest hotel to the accident was the Holiday Inn. With two dogs in tow, a child in a wheelchair whose chair had been destroyed and injuries that weren't yet discovered my daughter drove her car to the hotel where we met them. Krysten at the Holiday Inn was extremely helpful, kind and understanding of the situation. We definitely will return and tell others.

The hotel is clean and colorful, comfortable and welcoming. We needed a place to stay after being rear ended on I 75 leaving our car not road worthy. Thank you for this peaceful pleasant place.
