This doesn't feel like the "typical" Holiday Inn that you are probably used to. It feels like an older hotel that was converted into a Holiday Inn and just doesn't have the same vibes. There is no breakfast included and they don't offer the standard one that other locations have. There is a restaurant onsite that you can go to for breakfast/lunch/dinner and you can order room service for only lunch or dinner (but it costs you $6 delivery, plus a standard 15% gratuity ... so you might as well just go to the restaurant and pick it up). The room was clean and the staff was friendly. The elevators were broken while we stayed there, which was an incredible pain as we were on the top floor (5 stories). The hotel staff did bring the heavy luggage up the room upon arrival, which was good because I would NOT have been able to get it up there myself. Although being at the hotel for a week (business trip) it was really frustrating to take the stairs several times a day when I have mobility issues. And it made me not able to go to the restaurant, or pool/hot tub because of the added stress of only having the stairs as an option to get to them. The hotel isn't bad, but it just does not feel like a Holiday Inn, which is the brand name that I trust and wanted. I probably wouldn't stay here again for that reason.

There was some problems with the room at check-in but it was remedied within a short period of time. The staff at this location are excellent, helpful and attentive. Food and service at the restaurant was outstanding. I would certainly stay at this location again.

Airport shuttle, staff and room were great. Only issue was having to walk up to 5th floor because elevator was out of commission. Kind of a drag at midnight after a 5-hour flight.

The check in was super easy. Lounge has good budget friendly options. They placed me on the fifth floor and it was a nice view of the city. I loved the breakfast buffet, and hot tub. The room was perfect for a single person. I chose this location for a night staycation and 10/10 would recommend. I will be back in the future with my family.
