James gave me great customer service. Ask me if I needed anything a drink of water. I felt very welcomed.

I wish every location would run this smooth and be friendly like this. Had two bad Holiday Inns in a row, and then this one saved the day.
Front desk was awesome. Wish I could have gotten the day time person's name for this review, because she was concise , helpful, but most of all friendly.

This IHG charges for parking. 😠 Breakfast was cold even though we were there 30 minutes after it started. Snack shop now run by “Third Party” and charges ridiculous prices. Worst experience with IHG we’ve had. Linetta at the front desk is just flat out rude. No way should be working in hospitality industry. Asked for a receipt and she told us to just go away. Absolutely belligerent.
