Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
They didn’t service our room on one day and we had to ask for towels to be bought up and had to wait for these to arrive before we could go to sleep. When we said our room had not been serviced they asked if we had put a sign in the door and didn’t offer any assistance. No tea bags were there from day one. Chunk of hair in shower floor.

All was great, except for the bed.
The mattress was horrible, the absolute worst I've ever attempted to sleep on. Who should i send my chiropractor's bill to?

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We stayed in room 823. The first thing we noticed was the fitted sheet was not fitted and kept pulling up. When we woke up in the morning, we both had had a reaction to something in the air conditioning, each of us sniffling and with a bit of a sore throat (these symptoms both went soon after we checked out). The other thing that we were deeply concerned about was the breakfast buffet. We ended up not eating our food, as everything that should have been hot was cold - eggs, bacon, sausages… the tomatoes looked uncooked and had just had a large amount of herbs heaped on them. The fact that all this food was being served cold makes me wonder if any checks for done from a health and safety standpoint, as you could actually get someone sick from this. We definitely do not feel we got what we paid for and this experience has turned us off Holiday Inn.
