Other than breakfast it was great.
Cons:

You had enough staff but they were all over the place. Someone should have handled breakfast check-in and check-out, one to make sure food was stocked, one for drinks, and whatever else was needed. Because they did not have an assigned position, you had to find someone for coffee, who took a while to get seated and to give silverware, and who checked out. Not a great experience.

Pros:

The free shuttle bus, was clean. A good breakfast with lots of choice.

Cons:

The price. Was expensive for a holiday inn but guessing it’s due to location.
