Hotel Under Construction - BEWARE

Checked in late in the evening. Room was hot and the air conditioner said that it was controlled from the thermostat on the wall. Checked the thermostat and there were no batteries. Installed my own batteries and still no air conditioning. Open the cover and it turns out that you can control from the wall unit itself. The phone in the room did not work, so we could not contact the front desk directly and had to use our cell phones. The entire building is being remodeled. The remodel crew is using the main elevators, moving large furniture up and down while all the customers are trying to access the building, or leave, and are unable to do so. The tv does not work properly, constantly going on/off, while many of the stations programmed are static and it was the smallest tv in a hotel unit that I have seen in over a decade. The hot water took 10 minutes to get to my shower and was only ever lukewarm. The included breakfast was cold, especially the potatoes. The last issue encountered during the stay was the overwhelming smell of drugs being used in the building and filling the entire hallway, even into my room.

The toilet in the room did not flush properly. I had to use the bathroom on the lobby floor. There was ongoing construction at the hotel, the smell of paint, dusty footprints in the halls and elevators. The elevators were certified, but they felt and sounded a little questionable. There was a hole in the grill of the AC unit in the room where someone probably stepped on it. The hotel overall was more aged than I expected for the price I paid. Still a great breakfast and nice staff.

They had a lot of repairs and paint work going on. They kept saying that they were the new management who took up just a few days back. However, the paint smell (besides the loud noises during the day) was very intense. They should have kept the floors blocked so that the paint work does not bother the clients. Their approach of taking this lightly and letting clients occupy the hotel (and even the floors) when there is such intense paint smell kind of demonstrates their lack of concern for the clients as long as they are able to collect some revenue.

Was fine. Was decent. Not bad. But not great

Hvac was not great. Room stuffy - it not bad - however as there were three of us (two queen beds) it would have been logical to have more than two towels in the room - yes we could have called for more, but had to leave for a meeting.

Hallways, showers and elevator lobbies were not maintained to other IHG property standards. The front desk staff were not familiar with the IHG loyalty program to add our member number at check in. Other than the main lobby area by the hotel entrance, the other common areas were void of accessories, furniture, or pictures. I would not recommend this hotel when there are other options within walking distance.

The hotel was not up to standard for holiday inn. Run down hotel with very little amenities. Holiday inn is known for their breakfast. The breakfast was very bare with hardly any items on it, ran out of cinnamon rolls by 7 am, the pancake machine was not working, there was no fruit in the empty fruit bowls. The staff didn’t care much about their guests. I would not recommend this hotel.
