Exceeded expectations, my go to hotel from now on in port a!
Pros:

The breakfast was delicious. I’ve had free breakfast at many hotels and they are usually just ok. This one was shockingly great! Room was comfortable and appreciated the microwave and fridge. Overall loved the stay

Cons:

Nothing. It’s more expensive than a bunch of other options in the area but most are motels and the holiday inn is much much nicer. Wish the price was a little lower but honestly it was way better stay than I expected
