Disliked: Staff & service
It was pretty average for $229. I think it should’ve been cleaner a little more fancy clean curtains. The coffee pot did not look clean. I felt like the staff was upset because I used the Expedia which I will never do again because they refuse to let my Son check in without me . I paid for two people and told them my son was coming home from the military and my flight would not land till mid night . They refused to help him . U can fight for their country but you aren’t allowed a bed that your parent paid for . They insisted I call Expedia because I bought the ticket through Expedia.not to mention I am a holiday Inn rewards member they didn’t bother to check it so I got no discounts after all we went through at the end of our stay we went to turn in our keys. I asked them if I can get a receipt and they told me no because I was a third-party buyer, so I do not get a receipt. This was the first day of a four day trip back home to Louisiana from San Diego California. It was the first time I was seeing my son in four years. It was a horrible experience.

The hotel kept charging my debit card and at one point literally had $1300 of my money when my total bill for my entire stay was $646. They kept saying they were gonna release the money but I didn’t get it back for at least five days. And that was after I was home already for three days. And the last charge, on the night before I was leaving, I had to speak to the general manager, after going to the front desk to try to deal with this issue at least four other times, the general manager said to me “I don’t know why your card got charged or where that Dollar value even came from “. It was $294. She couldn’t explain it at all. This was not OK with me, but she could’ve cared less and that really upset me. Needless to say, I had very little money to spend on my vacation because it was all held up by the Hotel.
