Holiday Inn Express & Suites Cullman

Worst experience ever!
Me and my partner mark (we are gay) went to the pool in the hotel. A woman came into the pool as well and was really friendly and talked to us (she said she was a hotel employee who had to spend the night) until I called my partner «baby».
We were in close proximity and even kissed once. The woman quickly left and the manager came in and said a customer complained that two men were causing indecent exposure. She demanded we go to our rooms. She was so rude and was not reasonable at all to the fact that it was obvious homosexual discrimination. The manager was so rude to us and said that our behavior was completely unacceptable behavior in a public places and that us kissing would scare children and other guests.
I immediately told her I was calling her corporate over this issue and her racist behavior. She said instantly gave us her name, badge number and said she welcomes us to call them. She said that she is gonna stand up against what is morally wrong.
I have never been discriminated against and it was very hurtful and my feelings are damaged because she basically called me a monster. This hotel is NOT for any member of the LGBT community and should be avoided. This happened about 4 hours ago and I will be calling corporate and getting a refund. This is ridiculous!

Good hotel. Internet speeds have been fine. Offer both standard and 5G connections. No issues at all.
Good location near several good restaurants. Pool was nice. Only wish they had a hot tub to go with it.
I’d recommend staying here on your way thru.

Good solid hotel. After a long road trip we were happy to stop. It was late when we got in and we were greeted warmly by the man at the front desk. Room was nice and clean, comfy bed, nice water pressure in the hot shower. Decent morning breakfast and we were once again welcomed warmly by the incredible staff. Would totally stay here again if I happen thru town. Small warming if you are looking for drinks of the adult variety the gas stations nearby sell liquor and beer but stop selling at 11 pm so plan accordingly.

We got a room with a jacuzzi for only about $ 5 more than the regular room rate. That’s pretty dang awesome.
What’s not awesome? ANTS IN YOUR BED. Wow, really not awesome. I woke up to something crawling in my ear, I was mostly still asleep. I woke up several more times during the night as the ants bit me. At one point, I woke up my boyfriend to tell him I was getting eaten by ants, but I wasn’t quite awake enough to be sure if this was serious or not. He fell back asleep (the beds and pillows are ah-​mazingly comfortable). Woke up in the morning, still tired and now covered in ant bites. My boyfriend made it through the night with only one bite.
Boyfriend killed probably two dozen ants — they seemed to be inside the room phone?! Then went to the front desk. They agreed to move us to another room and gave us $ 25 off our room for the first night. I am not really impressed with that very small offering as my night was disrupted, but the boyfriend was paying and he was just happy to be in an ant-​free room.
Night two. I get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. I flush the toilet. I go back to bed. The toilet then runs for probably 15 – 20 minutes until my boyfriend gets up to shut it off. He can’t, apparently the plumbing is too fancy. He comes back to bed and the toilet finally stops running a few minutes later. So much for a good night’s sleep!
Why does this place still get three stars? The beds are comfy, the pillows are fabulous, the staff is nice, and the jacuzzi was incredible.

Slowest internet I’ve had in a hotel since the dial-​up days. So slow that i was not able to work. I would not recommend this hotel to business travelers for this reason.

This place was a very good choice for my brother and I to stay at during a fishing trip. We stopped here upon traveling down to Destin, Florida for October fishing tournament. We will be going each time we travel thru this area, the staffers here did a terrific job and deserve a good job well done. We even tipped the staffers and were told not to do this, we felt that welcomed here. I have a Gold Elite membership with Holiday Inn chains and I think many people would benefit from this also, check into this on your next stay.

What a relief! After our last disastrous visit to the area, we found a reasonably priced room that is clean, quiet, doesn’t smell unpleasant, and has bed linens that haven’t been torn to ribbons by an animal of mystery. Looking forward to the free breakfast…
