Holiday Inn Houston Intercontinental Airport by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and nice, the breakfast very good for American standards. The staff is friendly and we had a good experience overall. The cook who makes the omelet keeps using his mobile phone with the gloves with which he also touches the food directly and keeps money (his tips) on the table - this is not hygienic at all so please give this feedback to all your staff working with food.
