Their room that they give us smells and extinct parking lot is too expensive. They never tell you that before you book in so be careful if you have a truck you’re paying $80 not a good experience to say I recommend.

Hotel was nice. Had everything you needed and centrally located. The only complaint is that it was very loud. You could hear people in the rooms next door and in the hallways. All during the night the room doors would slam shut. So it was hard to sleep, but other than that it was good.

Windows are not operating (even a little bit). Completely lack of the fresh air. Breakfast menu and food are horrible. Didn’t enjoy the stay at all, I wish I would choose a Holiday Inn like I usually do.
