The staff was very good for checking in and check out. The hotel is on a street corner down town. We did not know they charged $25 (for unsecured parking in a sketchy area) per night until the day we were arriving which is too late for the refund.

The staff was amazing!! I stopped by along with my family at around 11:30am, just to store our luggage at the property before checking in at 3:00pm. However, the male associate offered to check us in already at no extra cost!! Ended up checking in almost 4 hours early for FREE. The staff was attentive, from the receptionists and shift managers, to the kitchen staff, and the housekeeping ladies. Everyone was friendly and welcoming to us. They had complimentary water with ice in the lobby, along with complimentary cookies which were very tasty. The free breakfast offered extensive options, including fresh fruit, cereals, oatmeals, coffee, sausages, scrambled eggs, potatoes, yogurt, bread, waffles, hot coffee, juices, water, among other offerings. The room was spacious enough and featured complimentary water bottles, a mini fridge and a microwave, along with the standard ironing board, iron, hair blower, etc. We did face two very small inconveniences, the first one was the fact that the room only had three towels (we were a party of four), but I received an additional set after requesting an extra towel. The mini fridge in the room had some issues with powering up, but it was due to the cord being some what loose. There's also a free shuttle that we didn't get to use, but it is an option for those who would like to use it. Large homeless population around downtown, but not the hotel's fault. We still felt pretty safe in the area.

Outstanding service. Setting a standard for others

We parked in a car park and discovered we were right by the hotel (use QR code to pay and not the machine). Very friendly greeting and discovered we got breakfast and they run a mini bus to take guests to local restaurants. David the driver was so good and friendly and picked us as agreed. Consequently a large tip followed!!!! Room was fine and bed very comfortable.

I’ve stayed in many Holiday Inns before but this was the worse experience ever! We had to change rooms 3 times! First the TVs didn’t work in the room. We spend a lot of time with the front desk lady going from room to room trying to find a working tv. Then they had some kind of major leak or something and the ceilings were coming down and then the leak soaked the carpet and messed up my shoes! AND they decided to pull well lift up the carpet. As I stepped off the elevator and turned the corner, I almost tripped and fell. The carpet was up wires and cords everywhere from a blower. It was a terrible experience. The customer service was poor. However it was convenient to the railcar.

Amazing! Front office staff was so kind and helpful! The elevator stuck for few minutes but the lady was so prompt to help and as a compensation, she didn’t charge for parking for a night. Very professional!
