The staff was very friendly and the lobby had decorations for Halloween. It was great to have the breakfast as an option, it was hot and ready as soon as I woke up. The room was very clean, and decorated well. The hotel was worth the price and if I’m ever in town I will try to stay here again.

Parking wasnt free

Good breakfast choices, clean friendly service. Only is was I called the hotel to ask about parking for upcoming cruise. I was assured I could leave my car for no charge. When I arrived I was told I could not leave my car. Later I was informed I could for 140. I would have stayed at another Holiday Inn had I known this. I felt this was deceptive.
