8/10 Very good

Perfect Hotel - Not So Perfect Restaurant.
I am not overly picky about where I sleep when I go out of town for a one night stay. But when I need to take my Mother with me, its a whole different story. The Crowne Plaza did NOT disappoint me. Easy to locate, good neighborhood, super clean, good price, friendly check-in, comfortable beds, and PERFECTLY COLD AIR CONDITIONING! If I had to find a negative, it was the restaurant service. They were NOT BUSY, still I waited 35 minutes and yet no food, finally I had to leave and get to the hospital before visiting hours ended. I paid $17.00 for hamburger patty and bun, tipped waitress $6.00 but never got my food.

2/10 Poor

Spouse not allowed to use reservation
I booked under my name and under special néeds I informed that my wife would be checking in. I put her name in that area of reservation. We always use hotels.com and she checks in under my reservation without any issues. The hotel would not let her use that reservation and we had to purchase another room at a higher rate.
