Sufficient and Suited our needs

Hotel was fine, need a car although train station is a 20 min walk away. Breakfast was, okay for a quick bite, but don't expect gourmet, it was sufficient. Room and bed was comfortable and clean and the balcony was a welcomed addition.

As you'd expect from a Holiday Inn, it has nice clean rooms, decent gym and good breakfast buffet. The big plus for me was the 55' smart TVs and quiet AC. Next door is a shopping plaza with great dining options.
