Mixed Experience — Great Property, Poor Customer Service Overall, the property itself was nice. I really liked the garage parking, and the room was clean, with comfortable beds and a great view. The location was also convenient and enjoyable. However, my experience at check-in left a lot to be desired. I originally booked through Holiday Inn but was somehow charged by both Expedia and Staybridge, which I now have to dispute — and that’s frustrating. The woman who checked me in had very poor customer service. She rolled her eyes at almost everything and seemed visibly annoyed — not just with me, but with other guests as well. I witnessed her getting irritated with a guest who had a language barrier, another who asked about the food market, and even someone who called with a question while I was standing there. She also seemed bothered when I asked for basic things like directions to the garage and elevators. It made the whole check-in process uncomfortable and unwelcoming. While the room was generally clean, I did notice hair in the shower and on the towels, which was disappointing. That said, the rest of the room was nice, and the comfort level was solid. I might consider giving this place another try in the future — mostly because of the amenities and location — but the customer service and billing issue definitely left a bad impression

I would definitely stay here again. It was super clean and the staff was very atttentive and friendly. We never had to ask for more towels or new sheets. It was always clean when we got back. The only complaint I have is the lighting in my room. It was kind of dark to get dressed. Other then that I recommend to stay here
