- RSRyan StubbsOct 22, 20254.0Stayed here for work and got upgraded to a suite. Definitely staying here again.
- BRBrittney RockmoreSep 24, 20251.0The hotel smells very badly, it smells as if the carpet has never been cleaned. It smells like animal urine and trash.
- DWDouglas WilsonSep 17, 20255.0Nice hotel. As others will say, there isn't a breakfast or social hour. But this is a suite style with kitchen. Microwave, coffee, couple burners, and a full sized refrigerator. Gym has working machines, a two post, and up to 50lb dumbells. Besides, there are three restaurants within walking distance. My room was clean, bed in good shape. Easy drive to Shaw.
- CCChannaMoo ChannaMooAug 29, 20253.0I was surprised breakfast was not included, I did not think to check as I am accustomed to breakfast being included at previous IHG properties including Staybridge and Holiday Inn. Coffee was in a locked room which is inconvenient when juggling belongings and a locked door. No napkins in the little area the coffee is in.
