This was one of the cleanest hotels I've been in. WiFi was spotty, but that's no big deal. Friendly staff.

It was average

The hotel was basically clean, but felt like it needed a facelift. Did not seem as nice as other Holiday Inns. Staff was nice but not engaging. Most did not even acknowledge when we walked in or out of the hotel. Can't really complain but think there are better options. I will say the location was excellent.

When I booked the room through Expedia, it said the room was 107 tax. When I got here, my expedia said 124 and I got charged 144 (I am assuming tax). Don't like the changing rates. Also, the cleanliness was just ok.
