    Smooth check-in and check-out process. The room was pretty clean and had got some good sleep. The breakfast was great. The staffs were very helpful and respectful. Nice locality and the convention center is like a 8 minute walk. Plenty of food options nearby.

    Pedimos una habitación para 5 y nos asignaron una que tenía un sofá cama cuyo colchón parecía una sábana de tan fino que estaba. No teníamos las toallas para los 5 y el desayuno no es bueno. El empleado que nos atendió al llegar excelente.

    W porównaniu do hoteli nowojorskich to tutaj było bardzo przestronnie i mam wrażenie, że 2 gwiazdki tutaj to jak 4 w NY. Pokój duży, dobrze oświetlony światłem dziennym, w łazience dużo miejsca na kosmetyki. Klimatyzacja była cicha i prawidłowo trzymała temperaturę. Śniadania były smaczne, choć na dłuższą metę monotonne. Obsługa miła, hotel czysty. Co do lokalizacji mam mieszane uczucia. Wieczorami nie było zbyt bezpiecznie, aby poruszać się pieszo.

    Some friends came into town and they stayed here. My review is only based on my short interaction here. Due to the location, the staff honestly doesn’t greet you when you walk in and there’s usually ppl in the lobby. This actually surprised me because I don’t have any high expectations for the holiday inn at all. But, the common areas were clean and their room was nice/upgraded and clean, but small. Again due to the location and regardless of the time of day you need a key to access the elevator. That is definitely annoying when you’re waiting on someone from the 14th floor to come all the way down to get you. Lastly, since it’s on a busy corner it’s not an idea spot for ride-share pickup.
