The remote didn’t work. The lightbulb in the bathroom needed to be replaced. The shower head water adjustments were not working and there was very little water pressure. I asked for a late check-out (1 additional hour) b/c my daughter had a soccer game at 9:30 and I was hoping to have a chance for her to come back and shower before her next game at 3:30. The person at the front desk they only grant late checkouts unless you’re an IHG member. I said I wasn’t sure, gave her my email address and after looking it up said I wasn’t a member. When I got back to my room, I checked and I am a member. And have 2000 points. It was annoying. Basic hospitality would be “sure, no problem.”

I was impressed, being an older property and considering all the new ones that were built near it. The check-in was great and the staff were very nice. The rooms were clean and comfortable. It was also the first time that we could swim in the outdoor pool and not freeze to death. They had the water temperature just perfect. The breakfast was very good and had a selection of hot and cold food unlike other hotels that I have been in.

Hotel is located near University and not far from downtown. Parking was very limited and many cars needed to be parked in an adjacent parking lot. I left later in the evening and when I returned I also need to park on adjacent lot. The area had limited lighting and I was a little unsure about parking my car in this area for safety reasons. I noticed a couple of larger UHaul and Bus that were occupying a larger area of what could have been common parking for guests. Some areas of parking lot were blocked off due to repair/ storage. The rest of the property was nice including lobby, breakfast area, common areas and rooms. I usually don't stay at Holiday inn properties so I am not sure if this property is standard for condition and amenities. I did not use the pool or hot tub. My room was comfortable and quiet. I was traveling for work and the desk area, outlets and Wi-Fi worked for my needs. Bathroom was roomy, towels were soft. My only comment is that I am not a fan of synthetic bedding, which was a polyester blend of some sort. While the bed was comfortable and pillows adequate. I woke up several times in a full on sweat.

The staff here were friendly and helpful, answering questions clearly. I checked in on a very busy Friday night, yet everyone there was calm and collected and seemed genuinely glad to be greeting us all. We were attending an event at the arena on campus and this hotel was in a great location. The walk from the hotel to the arena was very pleasant using the walking path along the River. We look forward to staying here again in the future! Great experience all around!
