The desk clerk at check in was great. She went out of her way to solve reservation problems, We originally booked at Holiday Inn Blowing Rock but had reservations canceled less than 24 hours before our trip. They said a broken water main was the reason for cancelling our reservation, so we then rebooked in Boone. It turns out that after being told that they had a pool and hot tub, they were both not working. I would definitely not go back to Holiday Inn.
