Holiday Inn - No Egg

i recently stayed at the holiday inn at
telford. the room rate was promotional
and included breakfast. at breakfast we
tried to order eggs and were told it was not
possible as none were available that
morning.

i complained but not even a partial refund
was offered. i dont think ill be going back
there! what kind of hotel runs out of a staple
breakfast food!

    Well it's better that the "my mail doesn't come until 2pm" thread.

    So you got a cheap room with breakfast thrown in and you wanted a refund because there were no eggs?

    If I had been the manager I would gladly have given you 20p out of my own pocket to make you go away.

    I know that this section is for venting and warnings, I just didn't realise it was also for ridiculous whinges.

    Jeez! Just realised that it's the same OP!

    If the rest of us posted about every petty annoyance we encountered the MSE servers would crash.
  • Holiday Inn have fallen far from their original "Savoy Hotel" standard....

    So you went to a hotel where they ran out of eggs?
    Perhaps you need to be there at first sitting- it does happen.

    Any need for that? There is nothing superior in pointing out the OP is a wind up merchant, just stops others wasting their time.
