Just what you expect from the Holiday Inn. Friendly, clean rooms, and does what you want it for.
Pros:

Its like they say, it is what you pay for, great value, great food and facilities great. Staff very friendly, drink prices a little high for area i would say. Good location for a stop off. You go in knowing what you get, a clean and basic room, the location was great for us, quiet and ready to head out on the road.

Cons:

Drink pricing if anything, seem a little higher than local area, the breakfast was just OK, simple buffer style.

Pros:

L'établissement se trouve près de l'autoroute et dispose d'un bar et d'un restaurant agréables. Le spa et la piscine sont un plus très appréciables même si les équipements sont vieillissants

Cons:

Les chambres sont propres mais le reste de l'établissement est un peu négligé.
