Shopping hint, Short Drive

There is a movie theater 5 miles N on 35E at Exit J. There also shopping there. There are 4 sports bars within a mile from the hotel-Jimmy's, Mad Jack's, Sak's, and Stadium. At the Stadium, there is a ball field next so you can watch a live game on Wednesdays and other nights.

Dont book this hotel, stay at the Holiday Inn express around the corner, at least you will get what what you paid for. I only gave them 1 star because I couldnt give them zero stars.

This was big improvement from the last time I was at this location. Last time, traffic noise filled the room I was given and ... the hallway had noisy people (mostly preteens in the late evening. The breakfasts were buffet style and with hot selections. The location is right by the highway exit. It is also across from shopping mall. I am definitely coming back.

Worst Experience Ever.

P-O'd and ready to sue Jul 26, 2009

Never booking a Carlson property with Orbitz again. No room guarantee policy of this hotel is unacceptable. When I book and ... PREPAY for a Non-Smoking room I want a Non-Smoking room. When I book and PREPAY a double queen room I want a double queen room not a single king room. When I book and PREPAY for 4 nights I want to stay in the same room all 4 nights not move from room to room every day.

Time Away from Home

Keane Fan May 19, 2009

This hotel was all I expected, except that the staff who checked us in was more unfriendly than most. Halfway through ... checking us in the employee took a phone call instead and did not ask anyone to help her at the counter. We had to wait until the manager came out to finish checking us in, and when he did there was still no apology or explanation on why we had sunk in priority so quickly! The woman who checked us out on the other hand, was professional and polite so I would give this hotel a second chance.
