Loved the views from the king suite

Staff

Great location and staff, thank you!

The room itself had a nice view. The customer service was ok, nothing spectacular. Lots of homeless just 2 blocks away. They did not have glass cups to offer and mini fridge didn’t have anything inside. Housekeeping was great and took care of the cleaning each day and brought us new towels promptly.

We were within a few blocks of a great Spanish tapas restaurant and the Regency Ballroom. We walked to both!

I really enjoyed my stay

Fantastic stay. Staff was fantastic. Best holiday inn I’ve ever stayed at.

Great stay!

Great walkable location. Rooms were clean and had the bare necessities. Parking was easy and inexpensive. Would stay again.

Location

$29/person breakfasts charge was ridiculous and you could get foods from Wholefoods around corner.

Vanessa, we appreciate your feedback. It's heartening to know you enjoyed the lovely sight from your room and the cleaning services provided by our team members. However, your mention about the lack of certain amenities like the glassware and stocked mini-fridge has been noted. Also, although our location might present unavoidable scenarios, we hope it didn't overshadow your stay too much. Lastly, your comments about our customer service will guide us in making improvements. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
