My stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing. The room was outdated with no smart TV, and the furniture and bed were old and uncomfortable. The room also had a noticeable smell, and the cleaning products used were not effective. Overall, the experience was not worth the charge.

The staff was very friendly and helpful! The restaurant had great service and fresh food at the breakfast buffet. The pool and area was clean and the water was nice to swim in. The hotel has lots of little entertainment options with kid sized bowling lanes, minigolf, arcade, and table tennis. My two kids and I enjoyed some of the onsite amenities during our single night stay.

The hotel was great. The restaurant was excellent. The only hotel I've stayed in a long time with comfortable pillows. The only complaint i would have is the parking is so far away.

The Crowne Plaza was a very comfortable stay. The only reason why I rated 4 stars overall was that the bed was way too soft for my liking. Thats just a personal preference. That being said,, staff were lovely, rooms were clean and the on-site restaurant had tasty food and excellent service. The only downside of the restaurant is that the portions are huge so one could definitely share to cut down costs, especially children. The breakfast was probably the best breakfast I have ever had at a hotel. So many options, friendly and helpful wait staff. Made to order omlet station is fantastic. The pool is wonderful. I would stay again.

I feel I am owed one nights stay back . I had no phone in the room for about 24 hours and I do not own a cell phone . My wife was in surgery at St. Mary’s Hospital and I was to be available to help with a decision if needed . The hotel worked to fix the issue and thought it was fixed many times but it wasn’t . I asked for a one night refund and was told that because I booked through you that you owe it to me . Also people should know that if you don’t book directly with the hospital you do not get the medical discount and any issues with the hotel must be corrected thru the site you use . Even a hotel like the Crowne Plaza will not help with any refunds . This is crap , Dave the husband of Mary Ellen .
