here is my review... upon check-in, the very nice attendant let me know that she upgraded me to a suite because of my plat status. She said if I need anything to come back or call and she will do whatever she could to help.

I went to the room (right next to elevator - i thought plat got the good rooms?) and I must say that even after staying in ICs in Paris and Amsterdam, and many HI's in london, this was a very nice room for $60 as compared to the others. Nice little fridge, work area and the like. Bathroom was very clean and everything worked well.

I went back to the front desk to get some directions, and another attendant came out. She was rude, basically said she has no idea and really ruined the goodness from the other attendant.

The breakfast this morning (6:30 am) had the cinn rolls out (tho they looked NOTHING like the tv spots) -- I don't eat it anyway but they were very small and were still in the cooking tray. The fruit looked a few days past its prime. I had some frosted flakes and milk which were fine.

Overall I would say that the hotel was nice for the money in the HIX chain tho a room at a microtel for 1/2 the price would be on par.
