We stayed 2 nights. We did not have room service the first day. When I called at 4:00 in the afternoon the dest said someone would be right up. 30 minutes later no service. I talked to the "manager" and told him i want to rest and just send clean towels and coffee etc. I explained to him if I were at a Hampton they would comp the room as they have satisfaction guaranteed. He said he offered service and I refused so no compensation or restitution. No mor holiday inns for me.
