Holiday Inn Tacoma Mall by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The people at the front desk were so helpful and friendly! The restaurant serves burgers and wings, and there’s also a bar that mostly serves beer. Breakfast was really good, although it isn’t included with the stay. The gym was nice, and even though I didn’t get a chance to use the pool or jacuzzi, they both looked great. I would definitely stay here again. The staff really made the experience—they were that nice and welcoming!"
