Excellent stay!
Nice hotel in good proximity to the city. Highlights include the large size of the room, nice walk in shower, complimentary Dove bathroom products, very comfy bed. The breakfast room was nice, modern and clean. A great selection of food, and it was replenished promptly. Exactly what you would expect from a large chain hotel. We were very happy with our stay. The only drawback was the parking fee of 50$ per night- we did not park here as we found that to be quite pricey. We parked in private lot in walking distance for 50$ for two days.

First thing we noticed was how friendly the staff was at check in. The room was a good size and clean. There’s a shopping plaza within walking distance (under 10 minutes) and the area seems safe. There were very faint sounds from truck passing periodically but it was not noticeable nor disruptive to sleep for us (floor 6). Breakfast was pretty typical of Holiday Inn (eggs, sausage/bacon, hash brown, cereals, yogurts, juices & coffee, breads/pastries and a couple fruit options.) The elevator does get a tiny bit slower in the last hour of breakfast but nothing too bad. It’s not the most updated but overall a great stay and pretty convenient to the colleges, downtown, and airport.

Great location but the room had plumbing issues which were never fixed even though we told the reception twice. The door didn’t close properly either. We had a twin bed room and when we came back, we found out that housekeeping had made one bed but not the other. Strange!
