The property needs a lot of help. The hallways smelled of mildew. The first room we had smelled of mildew and we were switched to another room that still somewhat smelled . The rooms just need updating and new caulking and painting and a better smell !

The room was horrible. The internet was spotty and we had no dish signal. The ceilings were peeling and had mold scattered across the peelings. The bathroom toilet leaked so it made the bathroom floor slippery. The tub didn’t have anything to grip to its bottom, which made it very slippery. Will not stay at this hotel again.

Really bad experience

Overall, our stay was disappointing. At check-in, we were informed that both the internet and TV weren’t working. Later that night, we discovered the toilet flush wasn’t functioning properly. I reported it to the front desk, and they said it would be fixed—but it wasn’t. In the morning, we found only decaf coffee pods in the room. We tried calling the front desk multiple times but got no answer. Later that evening, they mentioned the phones weren’t working either. We were initially told to speak with the manager about a possible discount, but when we did, she was unapologetic and claimed the internet was working, which wasn’t true. Our room was also not cleaned during our stay—unclear if housekeeping only operates every other day. Breakfast was underwhelming, and on the second day, it was only available by order, which took quite a while to be prepared. All in all, it was a frustrating and unsatisfactory experience.

Good stay but lacking a lot of modern amenities.

The hotel was clean which i appreciate but very dated. During our stay the satellite was out so tv was limitied to 1 channel. The hotel store didn't have diet coke. The bar was out of Captain Morgan and Bud Light. The pool however, was very clean and well kept.

Come for the sushi

The Holiday Inn Bloomington-University Area was not clean. There was hair in the bed as if the sheets had not been washed, and I found a piece of raw sushi salmon on the floor under the dresser. There was no water jug in the water cooler and there were crackers underneath the abdominal machine in the fitness room. There were no towels in the fitness room, and when I asked housekeeping for towels, I was told there weren't any. The woman I asked ended up giving me a body towel. She said there were towels by the pool, which was closed for maintenance.

This is a run down hotel. I was expecting better from a Holiday Inn. The ceiling has a crack running all down the room. The drywall tape was coming off. The shower was not draining properly. The toliet seat was discolored from just being old. It was very dirty between the mattress and the wall. The hallways smelt musty. The only good thing is that I didn't have any bed bug bites.
