I rented the jacuzzi room and it was nice clean and spacious. Lots of entertainment around as well for me to enjoy during free time which unfortunately I didn't have much of on this visit.

Pros:

Staff was amazing. But wi-fi was not working so neither were the televisions. The part of the building I stayed in was old and run-down. The area was more industrial so it wasn’t unsafe, but not much around.

Disapointed
Pros:

There are two different hotels sharing the same building and reception area. However, the level of service and treatment varies depending on which hotel you’re booked with. For instance, Holiday Inn guests receive a made-to-order breakfast from a limited menu (eggs, yogurt, or pancakes), while guests of the other hotel are offered a continental breakfast.

This distinction was not communicated to us during check-in. We paid extra expecting access to the continental breakfast, and were very disappointed to learn the next morning that we would need to go to a nearby restaurant instead.

Additionally, the cleanliness of our room was unacceptable. The floor was extremely dirty, with dust, hair, and crumbs scattered throughout.

Considering the price point, the poor room conditions and the lack of transparency about breakfast were absolutely unacceptable.

Pros:

This hotel was quiet and clean. Bed was comfortable. Easy and quick check in. Pool was clean but over chlorinated. I wish breakfast was included otherwise everything was great and staff were friendly.

Pros:

Large gaps along the bottoms of the room doors meant that noise from the hallway was easily heard. After speaking to the front desk, they explained the gap was necessary for the HVAC system to work properly. We used a few towels at the base of the door to cut the noise and it worked well. Everything else about our stay was great!
