Enjoyed our stay - good deal on priceline - business and pleasure.
Positives: Nice beds, clean rooms.
Negatives: Hot tub had way too much chlorine in it.
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 28 Jun 2010 rated 5 out of 10.
We were given a room with two beds and requested a king. They were kind enough to change the room however the room that they gave us was occupied so we went back to the front desk and we were given a room in the older section of the hotel . The decor was out of the sixties. There was no shag rug however. I guess sometimes it is best to shut up and take what they give you.
Positives: The young women at the check-in counter were attractive.
Negatives: The swimming pool made the place smell musty..
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 19 May 2010 rated 8 out of 10.
Everything was fine until check-out. I had arranged for late check-out and they forgot which caused some inconvenience.
Positives: Nice beds.
Negatives: Staff did not communicate well with each other.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 19 May 2010 rated 5 out of 10.
This is a 2 star hotel at best. How this fits a definition of a 3 star hotel is beyond me. Very disappointing.
<BR/>
Positives: Not much. Staff was nice.
Negatives: The elevator floor felt like it was going to cave in at any moment. The entry way for guests (entry C) was grungy - needs renovated.
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 26 Apr 2010 rated 6 out of 10.
The Holiday Inn at the airport offers incredible staff and a convenient location. The drawbacks were room comfort, hot water temperature regulation in the shower and a 1960's facility.
Positives: Great location, adjacent to airport, nice breakfast.
Negatives: Hot water temperature regulation was lacking, rooms were antiquated.
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 15 Mar 2010 rated 8 out of 10.
We did not use any of the extras (ie. Pool, cafe, workout facility) because we were at a conference and did not have time. However, it all seemed to be very nice. For the price, the hotel was a good fit.
Positives: Front desk staff was very friendly and accommodating.
Negatives: Smelled a little musty, perhaps because our room was near the pool.
Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 02 Jun 2008 rated 10 out of 10.
Just great.
Positives: Friendly, great atmosphere, great enjoyment for the whole family.
Negatives: That I could not have stayed longer.
Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 05 Mar 2008 rated 8 out of 10.

Positives: Get area for poolside to hang out with friends and family.
Negatives: Could have been cleaner in stairwells.

If you are looking for a place that is convenient to the airport, this place is it. Right across from the airport. We didn't see too many restaurants close by, but then we really weren't looking, as we were visiting relatives. The staff is all very friendly and helpful. Except for the staff at the grill, who were seemed to be crabby all the time?
Positives: The staff was great. Our room was great.
Negatives: The restaurant, the grill, was not up to par.
