Great stay! Would be perfect if you're not a night owl like me.
Pros:

They accomodated my late check-in with no problems. The room was very well cleaned and the staff was VERY friendly.

Cons:

I would've liked options for people who work off-shifts (like me). A check out time at 11 am when I didn't check in until after midnight was rough. The pool is only open until 11pm.

Pros:

I was notified on Oct 9th that Holiday Inn canceled our reservation. We called to inquire as to why and were told that sometimes they "double book"
(Their words) they than offered to book me another room for only 290.00 more than my previous booking. I will never use Holiday Inn again.
