Great view
Spacious and comfortable room, amazing view from the 10th floor. Getting into the hotel is a little confusing with all the construction around, but wasnt terrible. Parking: $70/day valet, $17/day self park Our most disappointing portion of this stay was the breakfast - buffet downstairs, hot food was room temperature and flavorless. 1 hr table limit on weekends - we were gone within 15 mins as a result of quality. Wouldn't recommend this as a room add-on.

Weekend away without plans ...
Weekend in the city - no plans just exploring. Crowne is in the perfect location close to shopping, dining options, casino and running tracks.
