A wheelchair user said she was left waiting for hours in a Travelodge café because staff failed to book her into an accessible hotel room.

Bethany Handley, 24, said staff told her "it doesn't matter" when she explained she could not access the toilet in a regular room.

After becoming unwell she was forced to rest on the cafe's sofa at the hotel in Farringdon, London, before her mum found her somewhere else to stay.

That's understandable. I've only stayed at hotels like this a handful of times, but I've had good enough experiences, though that's purely anecdotal.

Want to apologise, no need for me to write shit like "This may blow your mind" or "It's not rocket science" to accurately portray my point. Appreciate the discourse.

Geez, this is not like Reddit at all. Where’s Godwin when you need him?
