Dont stay here!
We stayed in Room 001, it was on the ground floor. The room was very shabby and felt dirty. The bathroom door didnt close and was water damaged at the bottom so had an added panel causing the issue. The shower head would not stay raised, not great for someone 6ft plus! The toilet flush collapsed inside the wall on pushing to flush. The hairdryer was broken and filthy. The small double bed was like a camp bed and the final straw, the phones were not working so a note had been left asking all calls to be made via mobile to the front desk. I tried 8 times in the morning when all the issues had come to light. No answer so we gave up and checked out, telling the man on reception. He said sorry but didnt make a note of any of the issues so i pity the next person who stays in Room 001!

Fabulous stay
One night stay to catch an early flight. Very close to airport about a 10 minute walk in a well lit up area. Group of 3 in a double room with a pull out sofa bed. Very comfortable and enough space for 3 big bags as well when the sofa bed was pulled out. We had dinner as well in the restaurant and we all had a great meal. Would highly recommend. All the staff we encountered were very friendly as well.

After paying for our stay well in advance, we returned from Gran Canaria (midnight) to be told our room was not available and we could not be accommodated. There was no communication to let us know this was the case, eg email or telephone, so to arrive to this mess was shocking. Having travelled 8 hours from Scotland and returning the next day, we were absolutely furious and very upset and the situation we were left in. The night manager who we spoke to said he had "no idea" regarding our situation claiming there was no handover to inform him which whether true or untrue is completely unacceptable. This experience left a bitter end to our holiday to say the least and has ended any faith we had in using Holiday Inn hotels the future.

The carpet in your room and corridors didnā€™t seem very clean. My biggest issue- we were given an accessible room which we didnā€™t require but didnā€™t really mind. Part of the equipment included an assistance alert system which had a bright green light which lit up the room all night and stopped us getting any sleep at all. I did mention this to the person on the desk when we checked out and it was suggested we should have come to reception to inform them, this wasnā€™t an option as we didnā€™t fancy changing rooms at 11.30pm when we needed to be at the airport for 5am

Had issues from games and misleading advertising on Google and the hotels website. 24hr room service with full English breakfast is not something that this hotel does. Hot breakfast is only available from 5:30am in the restaurant and on room service. I spoke with the shift manager and the general manager regarding the issues during both our stays. Issues from staff not available to open the main door to the phone system and Aircon units not working to errors with non delivery of ordered breakfast and errors with the breakfast items provided were discussed. The hotel agreed to refund the cost of the latest stay and will remove the website from Google which shows the wrong details which are false and misleading.
