First time staying In holiday inn, we normally stay in another budget chain but fancied a change. Parking was a bit limited, it was free but i am not sure if you can park slightly to the right if all the hotel labelled parking was full, this put us off jumping in the car and going to find some dinner, The staff were nice and friendly, couldn't fault them Our room though, we walked in and the ac was on full, so the room was freezing after a bit of playing around with the settings we managed to get the room warmed up a bit. The bathroom was ok but the shower taps were coming off the wall, we didn't tell reception as we were only there for a night. The shower still worked. I found it took an age for the hot water to come though the normal bathroom tap but thankfully the shower was faster to get hot. The bed was pretty hard, with a soft and firm pillow each, the duvet was nice and warm though. The tv was at an angle, facing out of the window, very strange. Breakfast was a bit disappointing to be fair, we felt that the area to eat was much like a school cafeteria. Very loud and was impossible to relax. There wasn't much of a selection. Few fry up options, standard egg, sausages and bacon. Then toast, plan croissants, mini muffins, few selections of cereal.The coffee was terrible! We didn't finish it and stopped at a Starbucks once we had left the hotel! We are in the area a few times during the year visiting family but I think we won't being staying here again, which is a shame.
