The common area is very nice and updated. The rooms are not there were mode due between the grout line. The tub was old and the towers were tired. The shuttle service was marginal leaving was good but coming from the airport the driver didn’t bother to stop. Literally just did a drive-by.

Holiday Inn is a functional hotel that you stay at if you want to get to the airport early. The staff were polite and attentive. The rooms were nice and and clean, had been freshly painted so there was a smell. The beds are comfortable. The restaurant downstairs offered food but wouldn’t recommend it. Great for a stop over.

Everything was fine except we waited for the shuttle from the airport which never did show up and so we had to get in a taxi. We even called to find out where it was and they said it wasn’t at the hotel so it must be at the airport. The hotel needs to have better communication with the shuttle. We waited for an hour and the hotel is only 5min away. They did compensate us with a drink at the bar.
