Work in progress but quiet and clean.

I was not in my room accept for sleeping which was comfortable and quiet. Front desk, especially the morning of 1/14/25 was very pleasant. I did not ask the name of the young woman who was there Tuesday morning but we had a nice chat. She was friendly, curious and efficient.

We were switched to the Crown Plaza as they are renovating the Holiday Inn so it was a surprise upgrade. They honored free breakfast by offering complimentary buffet in hotel restaurant
