Hotel is pretty dated. Very quiet and not crowded at all despite a holiday weekend. Handicap parking is too far away from the entrance lobby as my wife is disabled. Room was clean and satisfactory for the price point. Toilet refilling after flush took 10 minutes and very loud. Our bed was old and squeaky causing discomfort both nights for us. Seems our room wasn’t used often as it is a handicap accessible and probably neglected by the staff. Restaurant was freezing cold both mornings as well as the buffet breakfast. We will look elsewhere for a hotel the next time we visit the area. We expected more from a Crowne Plaza hotel.

Pretty good! The staff was very helpful and welcoming, and the facilities were as advertised. There was a slightly moldy smell on the bathroom, but it wasn't too bad.

Will definitely stay here again
Very comfortable and nice lobby area. The only problem was that two of the three elevators was working and one time after waiting a long time we ended up walking up to the third floor (we are seniors, so not so easy). Staff all very professional and friendly.

Hotel was good for the one night we stayed. Property is off the beaten path so we did have some trouble locating it, but could have just been me, since we are not from the area. Have to travel 10 or so mins to get to any good dining or shopping areas. Would probably stay again.

Great choice
The Crown Plaza was great value for money. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was a big step up from the standard hotel breakfast offerings. The walking path around the property was a bonus.
