Reviews

6/10

Service was good and employees were very friendly. The room was outdated but clean. The hotel parking lot is across the street. There didn’t appear to be many guests staring at the hotel. Very quiet. You get what you pay for, but it did the job.
2-night trip

6/10

Parking was limited as the parking lot connected was shut down. The hotel was outdated and was okay for cleanliness. Smelled like smoke in the hallways.

Front desk staff was not friendly. Communication was not good. Breakfast staff was nice!

4/10

Can’t control AC in the room so it just stayed hot. Also no housekeeping when requested. All in the name of being eco-friendly.
3-night trip

6/10

Parking lot was closed so had to park away from property. Signs were small where to park. Dirt in window ledges. Elevators extremely so.

Great location
2-night trip

6/10

Check-in was easy, property is definitely showing its age though. Being near the hospital some noise should obviously be expected but between that and the freeway just below there's plenty of outside noise even on the 7th floor facing east

Transportation was great
2-night trip

8/10

This was a quick 1 night stay for me and my 3 family members in one room. The bed was comfortable and the room was pretty clean. The room is starting to show wear on the carpet and in the bathroom. The air conditioning was very subpar. Knowing it was 85 outside and that we would have 4 people sleeping there, we turned the room temp down before dinner. When we returned later, there was no change. We adjusted it again, but had a pretty stuffy and humid night and morning.
1-night trip

4/10

When we got to the hotel there were no signs indicating that the parking was closed. When my husband went in to figure out where to park he was met with a condescending remark that it’s on the hotel’s website. We had been driving for ten hours so we didn’t think we had to look up the parking situation. We were also in a large Uhual which made it hard to turn around. When we checked in the staff was unfriendly and the room was less t subpar. I will not stay in another Holiday Inn.

1-night trip

6/10

It was okay. Overpriced for what the room was. Very crowded, and not updated at all. Bed creaked every time we sat down. Little holes and Knicks in the ceiling. Window wouldn’t close all the way and was very loud with traffic. Glad it was just a one night stay

We enjoyed our stay here. We were in town for a baseball game so we didn’t use the room for more than sleeping, but it was very nice and quiet. I would definitely recommend 10/10!
