I had a great experience overall during my stay at the hotel, especially during such a busy time. The rooms were impeccably clean and modern, which made for a comfortable stay. The breakfast was solid and quite affordable, though there were some minor issues with a few items. The staff were friendly and attentive, really enhancing the experience despite some challenges during peak hours. I would certainly consider staying here again.

My stay at the Holiday Inn was quite mixed. While the hotel was clean and the staff made efforts to address issues, such as noise and room changes, I was frustrated by the initial disturbances and the lack of authority among the front desk staff. The value for the hectic Derby week pricing was questionable, but the service from certain staff members did make a difference in my overall experience.

My experience at this hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were clean and spacious, making for a comfortable stay. Unfortunately, I encountered significant noise issues from neighboring guests which made it difficult to get a good night's sleep. While the staff members did their best to address the noise, the overall service felt hindered by management policies. Dining options were lacking in quality and presentation as well, which was disappointing. Overall, the hotel has potential, but there are some critical areas that need improvement.
