Positives: Very close to the falls.

Negatives: The view was of the back parking lot and alley next to the hotel.

Very nice for price we paid. Loved the room when we first got there, but when we went to bed a car alarm went off all night off and on. Walls and ceiling where paper thin. Could hear everything. Worst night ever in hotels trying to sleep.

Positives: Very nice room.

Negatives: Car alarm went off and on all night. Heard neighbors water running in bathrooms all night. Heard neighbors coming and going all night.

The hotel was nicely located near to the falls. The place was clean and room was of good size, but the only thing missing was a refrigerator. The dining area and restaurant was also good.

Positives: The location was great. It was very near to the Falls.

Negatives: The parking was full and had to park all the way to the end.

I was very impressed with this hotel. It's not a luxury hotel but very good for what it is. The pool/sauna/hot tub area is great. The pool could have used vacuumed. Front desk was friendly. For an older hotel rooms/bathrooms were nice, clean and didn't feel outdated-plenty of vanity area. Free parking and unbeatable location. I look forward to staying here again.

Positives: Superb location! Great amenities. Friendly front desk. Free parking!

Negatives: Buffet breakfast at the restaurant was cold and old. Our waitress was nice, but other staff was "not-so".

The hotel was perfect for what we were looking for. Was very clean and upscale without feeling stuffy. Room was extremely nice, and we even used the balcony some. Staff was very helpful explaining everything from locations of restaurants and casinos to how to exchange our money (from American).

Positives: Great location! Within walking distance to The Falls!

Negatives: To get to the hotel from The Falls by walking, you have to climb a pretty steep hill.

It served our purpose fine, breakfast is expensive at the restaurant $8.95, we got cheaper elsewhere $3.99 for bacon and eggs with toast and coffee. We dined there the night we arrived only cause we were tired. This place is at a 5 minute walk to the falls. Room was clean, and beds were comfortable. We would stay at this place again.

Positives: Location, free internet in room,free parking, exterior restaurant terrace.

Negatives: Restaurant too expensive.

Negatives: Our view looked onto the parking attendant.

Very quiet, comfortable, easy to get back in forth to room, parking no problem, great price.

Positives: Comfortable, easy access to things Entertainment good.

Negatives: Menu expensive just for breakfast. If cheaper prices more people would dine in.

We spend very little time in a hotel room when traveling so our expectations are rather minimal. The room was very nice but, they must have recently shampooed the carpet because the strong odor from the cleaner lingered in the room. We had to keep the balcony door opened, but still got headaches. The balcony door locke was broken off, when we addressed it with the desk staff, they said the drop down bar would locke the door, Unfortunately the drop down bar was not secured to the wall and could have been easily bent. There is not fan in the bathroom making it inconvenient for drying off etc. We ask the front desk person for directions to a particular establishment, he gave us completely wrong directions on the opposite side of the city. Lastly, on our last day, when I opened the curtain by sliding the pull bar the entire curtain - beams and all- came crashing down, including some plaster. We immediately told the front desk so that they would not withhold our extra security deposit or think that we went wild in the room. We plan to contact the corporate office of Holiday Inn to express our experience to them.

Positives: It was apparently recently upgraded by the modern decor. The personnel were very nice and accommodating.

Negatives: Please see my short review of the hotel.

Other than the pool being drained the hotel was great.

Positives: They really make you feel like they want you there.

Negatives: Was looking forward to laying out but outdoor pool was drained.

Our stay was severely tarnished when the morning after we arrived there was no hot water. Maintenance had to come up to confirm there was no hot water. When we tried to get a new room so we can shower and enjoy our only full day in Niagara Falls. I have never been to a hotel that didn't have hot water. An hour after we called we had hot water. Other than this nightmare of a morning, we had a good time. The bed was a bit hard but my girlfriend liked it. The balcony was nice. The location was good - pretty much walking distance to all the places we went.

Positives: The hotel is in a good location (2-3 blocks from the Falls) and has a decent bar and lounge on site.

Negatives: The staff could have been friendlier.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 23 Apr 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

Highly recommended!

Positives: Perfect location!

Negatives: Bit too expensive.

I enjoyed my stay and the lady at the front desk was very nice. The hotel was very close to the casino, so that is a plus!

Positives: Nice comfortable beds.

Negatives: Elevator a little creepy.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 06 Apr 2009 rated 7 out of 10.

Good location, directly across from casino, no huge expectations and so no huge disappointments.

The hotel was great, close to several dining places and close to the falls.

Positives: The hotel met our needs. The rooms were cleaned and the maid service was excellent.

Negatives: None.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 09 Oct 2008 rated 9 out of 10.

Excellent location for Niagara Falls. I was surprised to see that our room had a balcony overlooking the casino. Overall it was pretty nice -- nothing fancy or extraordinary but clean, good location, decent restaurant, and nice indoor pool onsite.

Positives: Surprised that the room had a balcony.

Negatives: The 6th floor hallway smelled smokey, but the room was fine.
