I was booked to stay here, however, they were doing renovations and moved me next door to the Crown Plaza. The Crown was nice, clean and friendly. Ashley at the Crowne took care of me the whole weekend. Jennifer helped me with a minor complaint and was it was fixed in less than 10 mins. I loved the Crown. I will definitely be going back!

Fantastic
The renovated holiday inn expresses are so nice but this one is the nicest one. The room was stylish but the grounds surrounding it were beautiful! There is a lake with a trail, a gazebo, a fountain and lots of cute seating areas. This would be a great place for a conference. All the staff members were super friendly and helpful.
