    After a frustrating experience with another hotel that canceled my reservation, Holiday Inn truly turned things around for me. The staff were absolutely wonderful, welcoming, and accommodating. They even upgraded my room, which was such a thoughtful gesture and made my stay even better. The room was comfortable, and the hot breakfast was a great way to start the morning before a long journey back home. I genuinely appreciated the hospitality and kindness shown throughout my stay. Thank you to the Holiday Inn team for making a stressful situation so much better. I would definitely recommend staying here!

    Close to the venue and clean I stay here quite often & there’s always a flaw. This time the tub stopper was broken in the tub. I know the housekeepers are aware and wonder if they report it. I feel like they should be something management is notified of so guests are made aware. Front desk check in lady could’ve been nicer.

    We arrived around 11 PM for our check-in. We had to wait for someone to come to the front desk. Once we were issued cards and went to our room, the cards did not open the door. We went back to the front desk to have the card fixed. Once entering our room, the smell of must was overwhelming. We went back to the front desk and were relocated to a different room. Overall, we would not recommend this location. It is very rundown and mediocre. The beds were extremely soft and uncomfortable. The bottom of our bathroom door looked like an animal had chewed on the bottom of it. It really was very unpleasant! Definitely NOT worth the $547 for our three night stay!!!!!

    What a surprise it was getting into the shower and there was absolutely zero hot water. It sure woke everyone up. There was also mold growing on the ceiling above the shower. Lampshade was absolutely destroyed, hopefully we aren't charged for it... along with big dents in the walls. We tried numerous times to get a luggage trolley to take our stuff back to our car but none were available each time.

    The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was very complete for what other hotels give you now a-days. It really helped getting that 1 breakfast meal included to get the day started. Pool and jacuzzi were perfect to relax. Not too far from the stadium and airport. They actually did turn down service which i was shocked since hotels dont do that anymore. It was great coming back to a clean, made beds after a long day out. Good restaurants around the area, one mexican place open 24hrs.

    This is a great place to stay and very close to everything worth exploring and seeing in and around Arlington. They have a full breakfast and very nice staff. Rooms were very clean and quiet. It is close to many restaurants that you could walk to and there is are other shopping centers close but if you forgot something at home. They provide stuff for showering and pool towels.

    Delightful! Graciously welcomed by front desk staff; large, very clean room with extremely comfortable bed and pillows; quiet air conditioner; nice hot breakfast and all at a reasonable price. Just please put real salsa or picante (not plain hot sauce!) out next to scrambled eggs - after all, this is Texas! Would stay here again.

    Stayed here for the weekend for my son's football tournament and I will say out of the staff from Thursday to Sunday only the lady that checked me in and the breakfast staff were friendly. I have NEVER heard anyone on the floor above me but at any hotel stay's it happened. I also have never experienced the water not getting hot in the shower this did not just happen once but twice. I say for $600.00 it was not worth Breakfast was okay I have gotten better at cheaper hotels they did have a good variety. It was me trying to take a shower at 6:30 AM and the water being cold why I would not stay again. Good luck!

It had a noticeable valley in the middle, which made it a bit uncomfortable to sleep in. I’d recommend replacing the mattress to improve the experience. Other than that, everything else was great!
