Everything was fine but the bed and pillows were hard/lumpy. Desk staff were very helpful, helped to mail towels cards I kept by accident back to another hotel.

Although short lived this stay was very nice. One of the comfiest beds we had all trip and we were greeted with a short handrwritten message from one of the staff members which was sweet.

Lovely and clean and in a great location.

Good place to spend the first or last night close to the airport. Other than that, it's what you would expect of a hotel chain (except the fact that they don't have a restaurant).

Holiday Inn is an Okay Hotel. Staff is good

The Holiday Inn was amazing. The staff was extremely helpful. We loved the little brown bag breakfast they gave us, at 3:00 a.m., so we would have something to eat while waiting at the airport for our departure.

Perfect location for early departure from airport. You can pay your departure tax there.
