Pros:

I really enjoyed the variety of food for breakfast! The suite was huge for my family of 5 so we all fit comfortably!

Cons:

I was a bit upset that we had to wait an hour after our check-in time of 3pm to actually get checked in because our room wasn't ready.

Pros:

The room was large and spacious, and the hotel offered good value for the price. Breakfast was standard but had enough variety to find something to enjoy each morning. A nice bonus was the bean-to-cup coffee machine in the lobby, available throughout the day, not just during breakfast.
The room was equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, and a coffee machine with capsules and tea. We also appreciated having three full sets of towels in a double room. Everything was clean, and the windows provided good sound insulation. Our room overlooked the pool, but it was still quiet. The hotel also has a large parking area, which was very convenient.

Cons:

There were some minor issues with the shower water pressure and the bathtub drain, but since we only stayed for two nights, it was not a major inconvenience. The pool is quite small. The beach is about a 10-minute walk away, although most guests seemed to drive rather than walk.

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
