Not the Holiday Inn Express standard we expected

This was the worst Holiday Inn Express we have stayed thus far. They advertised for free airport shuttle, however the service stops between noon to 5:00PM. We only got the email about the shuttle schedule after non-refundable booking. And they charged some kind of tax daily which we didn’t find out until checked in. I have not been to a Holiday Inn Express does not have decaf coffee in the lobby in the evening. Overall the hotel is outdated even though it was recently renovate, but they kept many of the old fixtures.

Total money grab - I was charged $20 to park my car. No mention of this when searching for a place to spend the night. It’s not the money, it’s the surprise and no need to charge a parking fee in this area
