Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

Holiday Inn Express Portsmouth - Gunwharf Quays by IHG

8/10 Good
"Rather disappointed with my stay this time sadly. Although great location and very handy to have parking at a discounted rate, my room was scruffy. There was a dent in the wall, cups were dirty, ironing board fell down when I tried to use it and the phone didnt work. I did mention this to someone on the day I checked in and they said it would go on the maintenance schedule but it never got fixed. Little disappointed too not to have any Freeview channels. On the plus side, great to have air-conditioning and little extras like the ice machine on 2nd floor and suntan lotion dispenser at reception nice touches."
