Crowne Plaza Plymouth by IHG
Having stayed at this hotel approximately a dozen times it’s been the last few visits that I have to ask every evening for clean towels and coffee refills! They then still don’t give the room any attention! Light bulbs missing from bedside lights! Very basic maintenance and housekeeping!
