I was a little disappointed in the location. It says Riverside but not a great view of the river. Other than that it was fantastic. Staff was very friendly, the place was very clean and breakfast was great

I like that every room has a mini kitchen. Never been to a hotel like that before. I wish there was paper or plastic cups to use, instead if only glass, in the bathroom. Breakfast could have more options as well.

Our stay was decent. The few things that were negative dings are the bathroom was not that clean. There was dirt around the grout of the bathtub and up near the sink. The Wi-Fi for the tv apps did not work for entire stay.

Staff was excellent, morning buffet was excellent. Hotel room was beat up and shower was clogged. We had no toilet paper to start. It says "river front, but you only get a river view from top floors.

Disliked: Cleanliness
When we arrived late (after dark) to check in there were people who appeared to be homeless sitting outside the front door. They kept asking us what time it was and I did not feel safe while loading the lugguage onto the cart. The hotel staff said they had called a cab for them but I did not believe them at all. The hotel is directly beside a liquor store. The hotel room was dirty especially beside the little refrigerator. We could hear the next door people talking and flushing the toilet and our toilet kept running on and off all night. Our TV did not work at all. We were told to work on the wiring ourselves and then were told we could move but we were leaving the next morning and it was already late. We did get a small credit on our bill. The breakfast was ok. Not our usual good experience at Holiday Inn Express for sure.
