Excellent location, friendly staff and clean warm rooms. Breakfast is fine and there is sufficient parking. You see the odd bear from time to time. I'm guessing a bear pushed over the trash in the parking lot with the snow covering its tracks ......

Sold on the name holiday inn. Sorry i did
Check in was flawless. The room wasn't. Dirty jetta tub with no instruction on how to use. Fire place did not work. Tried calling front desk and found out phone was unplugged. Plugged the phone in and it would dial but couldn't hear anybody n out of nowhere a person sayin he was the handy man n that the front desk could hear me but i couldnt hear them. Had to leave the so called maintenance tech in our room and when we return we noticed that the fire place was still not working and no note from the maintenence tech was anywhere to be found. Also noticed $20 missing from night stand.
