We had expected to dine at their in hotel restaurant but it was not advertised on Expedia or their main site that it was closed for renovations. So instead of the diner and breakfast meals we had expected we had to search elsewhere for dinner and the breakfast was poor selection of cereals and not much else. Our first room we could not open the door because of problems with the locks and our reassigned room had similar issues with the doors. It made the place seem rundown. The bed sheets were course and irritating. Probably the worst stay I have had in the last 10 years. I would not recommend.

Overall not a bad stay. I will say some amenities need to be updated the rooms are far from soundproof and there’s no on site restaurant /lounge anymore. The room was spacious and the jetted tub was nice. Ample pillows and Dove products.

This hotel needs an update soon.

Not so great. Outdated hotel. Needs a refresh . Beds were worn out. Our room had no light . The view was a wall. Room was either to hot or to cold. Awful breakfast that they charged extra for. Just a very overpriced mediocre stay. The staff was rude to our hockey team manager. Its is good that the front desk staff did take the time to get in a remove the turd from the pool. Showed some dedication. Would not recommend this holiday inn.,
