This is a Holiday Inn chain hotel, so the quality is generally reliable. The room was clean, the hot water was strong, and the heater worked well. The hotel doesn’t automatically provide disposable items like toothbrushes or toothpaste, so it’s best to bring your own, but you can always ask the front desk if you forgot.
Breakfast met the basic expectations, and I appreciated the self-serve hot water and coffee. The room also had a microwave, and the front desk service was very good

Rooms were nice, but our night was quite unpleasant. Between 12:30am-3:00am there were drunk people moving between rooms in the hallway loudly, it was impossible to sleep that entire time. 6am an alarm in the room next to ours (presumably empty) started going off and could be heard through the walls, with nobody to shut it off.
Breakfast has a lot of potential to be awesome, great variety of hot food and a nice seating area. When we ate at 9:30 there was still lots left but it was all about room temperature, if hot still the breakfast would be really good.
