Our room did not have the second shade to keep the light out of the room. Because we checked in on Friday, the issue was not resolved. The breakfast was okay, same hot food every day. Cheese omelets, turkey sausage, sausage gravy and biscuits ( They were burnt 2 out of the 3 mornings) The coffee was not good either, too weak and it tasted burnt

One of the nicer Holiday Inns I’ve stayed at.
Don’t worry about putting that “do not disturb” sign on your door though. Housekeeping will still knock. And if you don’t respond within 1/2 of a microsecond, they will open your room door and try to enter.
Do a better job at ensuring your guests are checked out. We had a 12:00pm checkout and they tried to come barging in by 10.
