Brief stay

Check in was polite and ok but I was asked if they could take the payment off my card and I seemed to have trouble being understood that I had already paid and no, they couldn’t take another payment off my card. Resolved after a few minutes. Also disappointed that I had to pay for parking. I had not seen any mention of this on the web site

Give the bed a miss!!!!

It was one of the worst beds I’ve ever slept in that I ended up with a bad back. The pillows were so hard and huge that I wasn’t even able to use them. Perhaps holiday inn need to invest in some decent mattresses and better quality pillows
