The phone didn’t work, coffee maker was working if hit it, water in bath sink had no pressure. Room too small, no place to keep stuff in bath. Dog was across hall that bark constantly. Reported it but nothing done. Protestor was in front and had megaphone. Just very disappointed with the hotel. Stayed in Holiday Inn Express before and this is the worse I’ve encountered.

Property was in a convenient location for what we wanted to do and see. Check in was very quick and easy. Having breakfast on site was a great perk. Only downside was that the rooms were not insulated from all the hallway noise.
