Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Spicer, Minnesota2 contributions
Overall we were very pleased with the room. The front desk staff at check in were gruff at first but seemed to ease after a bit. The courtesy van driver was fabulous. The parking ramp however is atrocious. My vehicle was broken into and some very expensive prescription glasses were taken. Security person told us they have no security overnight and no cameras in the ramp. Police confirmed this. Initial offer was to refund one night of the stay. Since I didn’t take that now I cannot get a call back. We will never stay here again and caution anyone else with the lack of security in a deteriorating part of town.

Hotel's Favourite
This was our 2nd time staying at this establishment in 2 years. It's easy to find, ample parking, spacious interior, good fitness centre, and some pools as well. I am always welcomed as an IHG platinum member and given complimentary upgrades without having to say anything. The rooms away from the pool were quiet, comfortable and relaxing. I do believe the hotel should upgrade the air conditioning units, as they didn't work well, were too loud, and just outdated. Other than that, we didn't have any issues. We were given a good view of the Harbour and were able to have a comfortable sleep. Would definitely stay here again on our next road trip through the US.

The room was very comfortable and clean. We really liked the access to downtown and attached parking ramp. We used the skywalk to reach the DECC for our event and parts of it were closed on the weekend. A local did help us bypass and navigate the closed sections but for others going, be aware it may be closed on weekends. We also chose a room away from the pool area which we were thankful for because it was particularly noisy with hockey tournament kids and families. This also impacted us, as we didn't use the pool or hot tub. Every time we went down to check, the hot tub was full and still lots of people. The pool area on the 3rd floor wasn't open either. Ultimately we did enjoy our stay and would definitely stay again.

Do not stay here. The security staff are the typical white angry men. They are looking for any reason to flex on nothing. There are so many places to stay in Duluth. Don’t give them any money. Keep looking.

Overall this Holiday Inn hotel. We booked a King Harbor View room. The Harbor View was very disappointing. As an individual with a balance/gait condition the tub/shower had no "grippy" surface I chose to forgo a full shower and took a bird bath at the sink. If you are driving yourself around some sort of navigation tool is a really good thing to have; there some one way streets that can be confusing.

Stayed here 3 nights for business. Very clean and staff was super friendly and polite. Free parking was a big perk. Walking distance to a lot of places downtown. Walk is almost a mile to the DECC but all inside via the Skywalk system. Room was small but ok for my needs. Bathroom could use some updates in decor, but it was clean. Quiet and nice overall.

We requested a room away from the pool. We were told rudely that because we booked with a 3rd party we couldn’t be moved. We offered to pay extra. Finally they said they had a room away from the pool, but that wasn’t true. Our room opened directly to the pool area. The noise was horrible. No time for rest. Even after pool hours the noise continued. The funny thing is that I got a text from the manager asking how my room was? I texted back saying we were not satisfied. Stay here I’d you want to spend a night in a loud loud YMCA environment.

Great hotel with parking ramp & skyway access. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is the pool was very cold & hot tub VERY hot. The pool area could also use some sound dampening. Overall, it was a great stay & the Skywalk access was a huge plus!

For $366 a night, there was a huge stain on the carpet, garbage left behind from previous guest, pubes in the shower, and a used bar of soap opened and left behind in the shower. The room was dirty. Gave two stars because the beds were comfortable and sheets were soft and the pool was vey fun. I will not be coming back. What a rip off! We are in Bloomington now and for half the price each night staying in a much cleaner and more modern hotel.
