Person at the reception for the check-in not pleasant, and mattress of the bed not clean

I am an Accor member and I travel frequently with this chain. However, I must point out that this is the first time I encountered this horrible experience. Whilst checking in and entering the room assigned to us, we encountered several issues in the room. The first one which was eye catching was a big hole by the bedside table. The second issue encountered was when making the third bed on the top, as that has to be done by yourself and it is not done by the room attendants. Having to make the bed was not an issue, but finding other people’s crap when making it was a big no no. There was chewing gum in the corner, tissue paper and also a clothes tag. The third issue was the pillow being so dirty that from white it had a yellowish color. Nevertheless, the pillow case had a big round stain which was impossible not to miss. When this was mentioned to the receptionist, we where advised that considering there is no more available rooms we where not able to be moved into another, but it will be passed on to the management team and they shall get back to me. The pillow was not replaceable as there was no spare ones, however I got another “clean” pillow case in which i placed on top of the stained one. At least i don't get the yellow pillow on my face. With the hole on the wall, the receptionist covered the hole for the time being with a piece of A4 paper and tape so it was not visible but still there. It was not his fault and he really helped us as much as he could bless him. He also advised us to send an email regards to our complaint and some compensation shall be given to us. After all those incidents, we decided to have a shower. When having a shower, the door does not close properly and the drain is blocked having on overflow of water all over the room. When reporting this to the receptionist the next day, We were advised that there is no maintanance on duty who is able to sort it out and they are aware about this issue as other guests have complained about this. We where offered that day to pack and leave the luggages at the reception for a room move, however i was not comfortable in doing so and i didn't want to waste a day moving as it was already late morning. I did ask for some compensation, thus I was informed that when the manager comes on Monday i am free to come to speak with her. Monday came, and I waited for the manager until 11.00 am. Once I finally got hold of the manager, I was advised that she has no idea about this issue but she will read the email which I told her about and get back to me. Please note we where leaving the next day so I wanted it to be tackled before I check out. The funniest thing was that the manager was speaking in french with the receptionist who was translating to me in english. Anyway, after all this hassle, I got a reply back that I shall be refunded some compensation for this inconvenience which I accepted. I gave them all my credit card details last Monday and I still did not get the refund I was promised. In addition, when emailing back to them I do not even get a reply back. I do not know whether to laugh or cry. I know i booked a 2 star hotel, hence I am not accepting 5 star service. But Checking into a room in this state no matter what star it is is not acceptable. Unfortunately Accor has lost a member and I will not recommend it.

Moderate, i want some personal staff like shampo &shower gel & slapper for bathroom &hair comb

the hotel needs renovation, dirty walls, burned out electrical sockets, hole in the wall, toilets in the closet... what was that?

It was a good stay. Friendly and polite staff. Room was a good size with a comfy bed and didn't have any disturbances at all with the outside street despite it being next to bus stops
