I've never stayed in a more depressed property. broken tiles, chipping paint, sloppy cracked caulk, luke warm water. The pool water looked swampy. elevators are suspect. I don't know how Holiday Inn allows their name to remain on this property.

The curtains in my room could not close up completely. So had difficulty sleeping because of the lights coming from outside. Water was onky given once. The evening male receptionist was very kind and helpful unlike the daytime lady.

Hallways smelled kind of musty, soap and conditioner provided in the shower looked like a mix of products. Room had some repairs that were kind of sloppy. Mattress was so hard that my hips hurt. Parking lot had a lot of construction and containers, but we never had a problem finding parking. On the plus side, super convenient location if you’re going to the Toyota Center/Convention Center, free parking on site (pretty unheard of downtown), everyone I spoke with was super friendly. Some people complained of noise but I thought it was very quiet. I had Expedia credit so I’m fine with the stay for one night at the discounted price I had but would have been annoyed if I’d paid over $100.

Good location to sporting events down town. Hotel 🏨 in and around felt like a dubious area. The pool was green, room/elevator smelt like smoke and shower door did not close.

Hotel was dirty and smelled of strong chemical cleaner. Entrance roped off with caution tape due to damage of covered drivethru. AC unit was falling off wall and made a clicking sound all night. Coffee maker in room did not work. Bolt on door did not lock. Homeless people on sidewalk. Terrible stay. :(

Walking distance to basketball arena, room smelled like someone smoked, a/c was excellent, not a quite place to lay your head. Venue a block away stays open until 2am and the music is very loud. But I can sleep through anything so it didn’t bother me. Bed was very comfy. Staff was nice.
