It was nice enough and the first man at the front desk was wonderful the other lady not so much. Not friendly nothing. didn't say hello just doing her job. this small hotel charges 17.00 per night for parking f.y.i. and It is a so so area, lots of homeless people. this is the smallest holiday Inn i have ever seen. It was something else before and looks like they bought it. It was clean though and the bed was comforable. I wouldn't stay here again though. the restaurant is meh,

What a great stay!
Jay greated me with the kindness and utmost courtesy. He was so very helpful and went above and beyond to accommodate us. The bar staff were delightful and eager to serve. Our room was clean, the beds were comfortable and all around the room was inviting. I would not recommend the breakfast however. The menu is misleading, not to the fault of the restaurant staff. But the cook was not prepared for the volume of service my party came with along and also other guests. Aside from the food, their attitude and kindness was a delight. That is the only area of improvement i found with this hotel. Other than that everything was great!

Great Location
Location was excellent, a short walk to Whiskey Row and numerous other restaurants, pubs, etc. Keep in mind parking is limited in a small lot adjacent to the property, but a sign in the lobby described a second parking location within a few blocks. Nothing exceptional, but that's not a bad thing, the room met expectations for the price point and location. Recommended, I would stay here again.

I booked a standard king room. The room was clean, but small. The bathroom did not seem as clean bc of some possible mold or mold like growth near the shower corners and floor. Parking was readily available. Staff always exceptionally kind and professional.

Could not get the air condition to regulate properly. Was on 74 when we arrived and we set it for 70 but the temperature only registered 73 and the fan continued to run even though it was much cooler than that . Tried to reset it but oh well-it was a great stay and the staff was very helpful and kind

Disappointed
Stayed here during the derby—spent A LOT of money for the stay. My shower was not working and considering I was paying almost 800/night the shower did not work. I told the front desk the first night and they did not try and get it fixed or did they call a plumber. For that much money a night I would expect better.

This was a great hotel for a few night stay. The area was nice and had a lot of things that were within walking distance. The parking situation isn't the best as they have a small lot at the hotel property, but they do have an alternate parking option that is fairly easy and close by.
