The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, the hallways were presentable. The breakfast was highly processed foods that had cooled off, and the pancakes were rubbery and cold. I did NOT like the surprise of having to pay to park, Hotels.com should notify customers that parking is not free. Just stating that parking is available is not enough information without the fees mentioned.

I made reservations in sept 202t. All was good. I called on Wednesday to let the front desk staff, know i would not be there til fri afternoon. Just didnt want to worry. The lady i spoke to on Wednesday assured me that i had ore-paid and my room would be ready fri. Well, i get there, they canceled my reservation. No notice no nothing. Invluding no room. Charged me for 1 night, and still dont have refund. I had to go find another hotel, which was double what i could have stayed at HI for. Hoping to get all my $$ back. I always try to stay with hokiday in express. This may change my whole outlook. bjm
