Great location in old town. Parking is easy and nearby. Breakfast is great. Smaller rooms, but very modern. Would do this hotel again.

8/10 Good

Great location near Independence Mall. You park your car in a parking garage a couple of blocks from the hotel, which requires a key card from the front desk. Staff is super accommodating about letting you hang onto the card after you check out if you’re sightseeing!

The front desk attendants, housekeeping staff, wait staff for breakfast were all polite, helpful, kind and friendly. Any question we had was answered quickly. We loved staying at the Independence Park Hotel and would gladly stay there again!
