Front desk girl was super nice. Hot chocolate in the lobby was delicious. A tad put off by having to purchase breakfast in the morning though. My thought is that there are too many hotels nearby that include some breakfast items. We have stayed at several in the recent past and this holiday inn doesn’t warrant similar prices without offering something. Overall, the stay was acceptable.
