Mem airport holiday inn?
Has anyone stayed at the Holiday Inn by the mem airport recently?
It looks as if it has been recently renovated and under new management. I think the last time I stayed there was for my new hire interview many years ago. Wondering if anyone has any recent experiences and looking for any knowledge of a 24 hour crew rate. Seems like all of the rates have gone up at the usual places I have stayed. Wondering if this place is worth a try again.
Thanks in advance for any info.

"Hollow Point Inn". Name says it all. I stayed there once. It doesn't matter who owns it, runs it, or what it looks like, I'm not staying. Poplar/240 area is the closest I'd stay. South of State Line is good. Then Germantown, Collierville area is nice.

The Courtyard Airport is still a decent place to stay for 1 or 2 nights if you don't have a car. They have free transport that will take you to/from AOC, Module C/D, or the airport on the half-hour and hour. It's a bit isolated and not many food options though and nothing else really walkable from the hotel.
The lobby bistro at the hotel actually serves good food for breakfast and dinner. There's a subway across the street you can have lunch at. There are BBQ and Chinese places that will deliver to the hotel too--the front desk has menus.
They offer pilot rates of $65 on a normal hotel stay basis, or $75 for 24 hour rate. Book any rate on-line and get the rate adjusted to the pilot rate at check-in when you show your FedEx Pilot ID.
