Crowne Plaza Plymouth by IHG
Extremely helpful staff, good food, well located. Didn’t know that the week I was starting the hotel was replacing all the entrance doors to all the rooms. So I was staying in a building site during the day. No advance notice, just an apology slid a note slid under the door after the first day.
