Great location but got caught out in a cold room

It was a cold winter day. We were allocated a room with no heating, but a small electric heater was already in the room. It didn't do much and the central heating was out of order. We asked for it to be rectified and they brought us another tiny heater. When we complained, we were moved to a warm room! result! the breakfast was very good and the staff were friendly. And of course, the location is great for the travelling and shopping.

I am extremely disappointed with my recent stay. My room was located directly opposite the lift, leading to constant noise from inconsiderate guests. The view from the room was of loud extractor fans, which made it nearly impossible to sleep. To make matters worse, the room was freezing. Even with a small oil heater, I had to request an additional duvet, which took an hour to arrive. This experience has unfortunately overshadowed my previously positive stays. I usually find Holiday Inn to be excellent and accommodating, especially as someone with a disability, but this time it fell far short of expectations. I am unsure if I would recommend it to others or if I would choose to stay here again.

Disappointing stay

When we were allocated the room, we found out that the safe didnt work, we informed reception and they said someone would come and fix it but nobody did, the room was advertised to have a fridge but it didn't and the pillows on the bed were like concrete slabs. Although the room had ben recently renovated i was disappointed with some aspects of the room. We have stayed at this hotel multiple times and never had any issues so needless to say we were disappointed as we were there a birthday weekend. On a positive note the breakfast was fantastic as normal.

Lovely place, nice staff, good location. Beware of the car parking, £30 per night not the £12.50 per night on-site covered parking as was described to me (screen shot at booking). They do have off site parking for the lower price.

We had booked for 3 nights, unfortunately storm Darragh meant our flight to Birmingham was cancelled and rebooked for the following day. I informed the hotel of this and that we would be arriving a day late. When we arrived the hotel had cancelled our entire booking and it took quite a while to find and reactivate the reservation. Not a good start, when we got to the room there were no towels (apparently, according to housekeeping there was a shortage) however these did arrive quite quickly. On the plus side the hotel was very convenient to the train station, was clean and well maintained and the room was very comfortable. Breakfast was included and was of a high standard with plenty of choice
