I believe that there’s people that go for work and stay for business. They wake up early to go to work, but your breakfast is not open until 630. It’s an inconvenience for some of us. Please give it more thought to open earlier.

Omg Veronica at the front desk is mean and rude and scary. Avoid her at all cost. She will get mad and will not check you in if you are on the phone. They will not give extra comforter or sheet. I was afraid to ask for anything else. I always had great experience at Holiday Inns. Veronica ruined this one.
