Worst IHG room I’ve stayed in

Booked a room which was near to a lift due to old war wound issues with my legs and walking with a stick as walking and stairs isn’t my best forte The room which turned out to be a room with two single beds was the usual appearance for a holiday inn However one of the beds could not be used as the divan base was badly broken which you could see when you looked closely at the side of the frame which the wood was obviously broken under the fabric covering The other bed was also damaged to the base but managed to make a do as I was just so tired I couldn’t be bothered to make a fuss st the time

We checked in after a 13 hour journey. Got to the room, toilet didn’t flush, WiFi didn’t work, and no tissues. Only 1 hand towel and the room was not practical for storing with no shelving. I had to walk sideways to get out of the bed due to a lack of space. Luckily it was a one night stay. When I checked out, there was no compensation offered apart from points. One of the worst stays at any IHG hotel.

A very bog standard, average ‘service starion’ style of property. Had just what you needed but nothing more. Good value overall for what we got but would have only stay for convenience of location to what we required. Not for any other reason. Poor qualiyi breakfast.
