The hotel itself was good. Loved the mattress. It was just the property around it wasn't great. We had to leave really early. The front doors were locked, meaning you couldn't even exit them. You had to use a side exit. It did have breakfast, but we didn't stay for it.

Staff in the evening on check in was nice and courteous. Staff in the morning wasn’t very friendly. The breakfast was limited and so was the snack area. Very limited soda and a some water was it. The area around this hotel did not appear safe and had several pan handlers around. The noise was beyond ridiculous. I had loud music playing outside my window on the 2nd floor until after 3:00 A.M. wouldn’t stay here again. Ridiculous for the price. Oh and forgot to mention broken toilets.

Horrible breakfast! Room only had 2 bath towels in it and the chairs in the room had some sort of liquid all over it. This had to be the least clean holiday inn we have ever stayed at.
