Description: The Familiar Places Holiday Inn® playset is sure to make every vacation more wonderful. Designed to closely resemble the 1970's era Holiday Inn® hotels, and packed with just as many amentities: inviting lobby with revolving doors; family restaurant with a full buffet, deluxe rooms with full bath, outdoor pool, playground, and even a dog kennel for vacationing pet lovers.
This set includes several exclusive, and very hard-to-find accessory pieces. The flags, cards for the sign, linen cart, and the dog are the most hard-to-find.
