Holiday Inn by the Bay - Portland ME

What is your Priority Club status?
Platinum

Were you (or for multi-stayers are you generally) happy with the hotel/stay?
Yes

Which room did you book and which upgrade did you receive?
Booked standard King room, upgraded to Executive King room with a Bay view.

How are the rooms?
Standard Holiday Inn style room, although this type is at the end of the hallway and has a nook area with extra room for desk, fridge, and more windows

How is the exec. lounge?
N/A

What was good and what was bad?
Location is very central. Room isn't fancy, but decent and large. Friendly and helpful staff. One very nice amenity is on demand shuttle service within the central city area. I would walk someplace and then call the hotel to get a ride back. Quick service too. Bad: Overnight parking fee is $10 (which I realize is a bargain compared to major cities, but it didn't seem like space was at a premium)

Value for $ or Priority Club Points? Would you return?
Paid in dollars, not points. Good value for the rate. Yes, would definitely return.
