The property was fine. Just a standard Holiday Inn. The hot breakfast was wonderful. The indoor pool was absolutely terrible. It was small, freezing and had the most slippery tile floor I’ve ever encountered. All 3 of my kids slipped while walking and my son split his face open with his fall. The manager even warned us before we went in. They really need to do something about it.

The hotel was incredibly clean and staff was courteous and eager to help. Breakfast was good with a lot of options—- more than a continental breakfast for sure. Comfy beds. Hot shower. Climate control was good. Accommodations were better than expected. The only room for improvement is access. It was difficult to see getting in and out of the parking lot. Although the shops are walking distance it was difficult because you had to walk in the parking lot where visibility is an issue. These were mild inconveniences for those with certain mobility issues. We would stay again.

It was ok

Front desk was helpful in that they moved us to rooms that were next door to each other. But rooms were dark, as were the hallways. Pullout coaches didn’t have any linens and mattresses were stained. Breakfast was good. Pool was fine but there was no hot tub (apparently one was advertised). We were traveling to several other locations and stayed at other hotels along the way and this just didn’t hit the same level as the other hotels (both hyatts)

Overall, our stay was good. They had us wait until after 4pm to check in as rooms were not ready. The pool was ice cold. Breakfast was good. Rooms were clean. TV kept disconnecting, which our toddler did not approve of. Would stay again if in a pinch but will likely look elsewhere next time!
