Nowhere is this stated on the hotel website. The "motel" is constructed in such a way that it overhangs underground parking. Rooms numbered in the 150's are situated right at... more

Bathroom has a sorry-looking shower curtain, and our bath plugged up which meant second in the shower had to wait for 2" of water to clear.

When we stayed there the hotel was being rehabbed (at least I hope so). The baseboards were ripped up, carpeting had tears in it, etc. We are a Holiday Inn Priorty Members and stayed in a number of Holiday Inn's over the years and was dismayed to find on our arrival (after 4:00 p.m.) the check in clerk pushing Whale... more
