I only spent 5 hours there to get a little sleep during a short layover after an international flight. While it's called an "airport" hotel there are at least 3 more Holiday Inns which are much, much closer to the airport. Staff were good and there's a free shuttle to the airport.

I recently stayed this holiday inn and had a pleasant experience. The hotel was clean, which made for a comfortable stay. I appreciated the fair pricing, especially considering its central location and everything I wanted to do was close by. The staff was friendly and accommodating, ensuring that my check-in and check-out processes were smooth. My only minor complaint would be that the Wi-Fi could be a bit faster, but it didn’t detract significantly from my overall enjoyment and update the TV’s. I would definitely recommend this Hotel to anyone looking for a tidy, budget-friendly option in a prime location!
