Pros:

The room was nice, the beds etc

Cons:

They overbooked our room so when we went to check in there was an occupant already in the room! I'm still waiting for a refund but it seems Booking and the Holiday Inn cannot coordinate.

Stay elsewhere!
Pros:

Great view and location.

Cons:

Had a TON of hockey tournament children staying there who were running around, going in and out of room doors, open and shut floor to floor doors, screaming housekeeping through the hallways, knocking on the wrong doors looking for friends, playing games on the public computers, and even playing hockey in the hallways. When we expressed concern and asked to be moved to a floor without kids we were met with, “we have no other rooms” and “security will be here at 9p and quiet hours begin at 10”. They did offer to send someone up but the noise began 10 minutes after they came up. It was quiet at night but from 7a to 9p it was NOT. When we left, the desk never even asked how our stay was. We’d not recommend or stay there again.
