8/10 Good
"The room was clean but was hoping for a coffee maker and refrigerator. But we were able to ask for ice for our drinks. No restaurant in the building but the Holiday Inn net door had one (we didn't use). TV remote was so basic- unable to get subtitles or even choose a station (had to use the up/down buttons). Very convenient to the airport."
