Down with my family for spring break and the hotel had everything we needed. My mother needed a wheel chair to move around easily and they had it!! So awesome. The hot tub and bar was a sure bonus. Will book again.

A night clerk was too friendly and spoke to my deaf friends like we are children!

Check in was a nightmare. Girl was completely unprofessional and trash…other girl took over and was very polite and professional…first girl did apologize but for God’s sake man…we had traveled for 9 hours and I have to deal with this child yelling and storming off. Hire adults please. Let’s add the giant hair on my towel as a chaser.

We loved our stay at the Holiday Inn. It was easily accessible from I-10. We stayed in 305 and the AC/heat worked great! The room was spacious and very clean. The breakfast coupons are also worth it! Staff was very friendly and helpful. We will be back for sure. They are also pet friendly which is nice if you are traveling with your fur babies!

My family and I had an amazing stay. We had a very bad experience earlier that night at another hotel and this stay made up for our horrible experience in the city.

The property is close to the interstate, so there is a bit of noise. The room was fantastic. Stayed for two nights while moving child into UWF. Breakfast not free, but worth extra.
