Vacation Inn Hotel & Convention Center

The room was shabby, the sink in the bathroom shattered, paint battered, bed soft and lumpy I booked for two nights, but felt I could not sleep there a second night and forfeited the room for the 2nd night and left. The "blanket" on the bed was a sticky, foam thing I did not want near me and I choose to be cold than put the thing near me. After I checked in I realized an internet offering was 40.00 less, than the rate the hotel wanted and $63.00 less than a much nicer competitor was offering a block away. I smelled marijuana on the premises most of my stay and clientelle around the restaurant and bar/pub was mostly on the seedy side. The adjoining spa did not want to accept credit card nor debit, but wanted cash. A nice size fridge was in the room. It is far from good value for the money and location. Do look around and do not book for the waterside/pool feature - it's not worth it. I would recommend it to no one.

Directions: near a mall, but would need a car or public transit to get to downtown or tourist spots
