I stayed for eight days due to sick relative. Other places - Wyndham, Hyatt - had doubled prices (Rodeo) but IH didn t (thank you). It is new and breaking itself in. Staff is GREAT - bartender, wait staff, desk staff, housekeepers. Kitchen is below par - limited menu, cold entrees, inferior breakfast buffet, steak done wrong, room service late, I asked for a dill pickle with my burger, sorry we don t have any. And it is all about money - no microwave in room so as to keep you from bringing in your own food, automatic 20% tips for room service, delivery fee for room service (!), no outside food delivery to room, liquor prices above normal range, no housekeeping in the evening (they skipped my room one day). You expect that the top of the line offering of a hotel chain would try to deliver thoughtful realistic service - pardon me for expecting that. The Wyndham and basic Hyatt right nearby do a much better job.
