The renovations are just what Holiday Inn needed!!! The new check in and breakfast locations are great. We have always loved the front desk staff. If I could recommend 1 thing it would be doors that close more quietly. The slamming each morning dozens of times was a bit frustrating. We still love you Holiday Inn we just like our am sleep 😊
