Nancy
United States of America
United States of AmericaFor years we avoided Holiday Inns because of past experiences with old and dingy hotels. This one renewed my faith in the chain. The hotel felt newly renovated. The double room was spacious for 4 adults. Very clean. Excellent temperature control. Great location. We walked everywhere. Parking cost an extra $15 per night but that was reasonable. They even had electric bikes (for hire?) and I wish we had known earlier.
