Hotel was just okay, nothing special. Had to pay $12 a night for parking, even though they had a parking lot. Assumed they would have a free breakfast, but guests had to pay $10.

We booked this because we have always had a good experience with Holiday inn. This room on the other hand. The toilet leaked the thermostat was needing a new battery and so was the remote. We did not spend much time in the room but what we did we were disappointed in the quality for the price. We did enjoy the Restaurant in the Hotel. Burger Theory. The food was quite good.
