So so
The room was fine. Breakfast was not very good and they didn’t get it stocked. The pool was closed for the season which is strange for June.

The first room smelled like sewer. The front desk said they had a lot of “workers” that book out these rooms. I was given a better clean room on the 3rd floor.
Convenient location in safe suburb. Pool is not operating which would be good to know before booking if you are traveling with kids. Wifi is poor, so it's also difficult to work online.

Disliked: Staff & service
We booked a room online, somehow it got booked for the wrong date. We came from an hour away because our home got hit by a huge storm and we were without electricity. Property manager informed us that there were no rooms available and I was not eligible for a refund. It still lets people book for the correct day and we were told that they didn’t want to rent those rooms out. So we left and found an even better hotel for better price just right down the road. I still never got my refund and they were no help. We had family staying there as well but it didn’t matter to them.

Liked: Room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Reserved a larger room with a sofa bed which was not available on arrival and we were not compensated in price. We were still charged for the more expensive room. Juice machine a breakfast leaked every morning. Pool closed and the temp for the season, it is June and 90+degrees outside. Washer broken and the front desk attendant could not fix nor did she return us the money we had already fed the machine. Mold in the bathtub grout.
Spacious room with good amenities for a business trip. Good breakfast buffet. Kind staff but sometimes no one was visibly around when I went by the front desk. I was there 4 nights and housekeeping never came to my room. I learned later that I could have requested it but wasn’t told at check in.

Everyone had to wait to check in. It's June and the pool was closed. The usb plugs didn't work. Half way through my shower I lost water pressure. I won't stay here again.
I booked a two bed room, got a 1 bed room instead... Receptionist would not do anything about it, would not issue a refund, definitely not staying again at any IHG hotel.
