Came up to visit Stillwater area, which is a short distance away. Hotel was clean and service was great. Was slightly disappointed with the breakfast package offered. Online add said up charge would grant a “made to order” breakfast. Discovered the attached restaurant recently closed so instead we were offered scrambled eggs, sausage, and cold cereals.

I thought the building was unique. The lobby area was very nice and the front staff was helpful. In the actual room, I was disappointed. I had heard it was dated but I was not prepared for exactly how dated it was. The bed was comfortable but the bathroom left much to be desired. I didn’t anticipate a walk in shower with chairs/disability area. The toilet base was dirty and we decided to not shower.

We had expected to dine at their in hotel restaurant but it was not advertised on Expedia or their main site that it was closed for renovations. So instead of the diner and breakfast meals we had expected we had to search elsewhere for dinner and the breakfast was poor selection of cereals and not much else. Our first room we could not open the door because of problems with the locks and our reassigned room had similar issues with the doors. It made the place seem rundown. The bed sheets were course and irritating. Probably the worst stay I have had in the last 10 years. I would not recommend.

This hotel needs an update soon.

Not so great. Outdated hotel. Needs a refresh . Beds were worn out. Our room had no light . The view was a wall. Room was either to hot or to cold. Awful breakfast that they charged extra for. Just a very overpriced mediocre stay. The staff was rude to our hockey team manager. Its is good that the front desk staff did take the time to get in a remove the turd from the pool. Showed some dedication. Would not recommend this holiday inn.,
