"We had trouble finding a hotel room with *guaranteed* accessible shower. If a hotel site mentioned it at all, it was something like "accessible rooms available, ask at check-in". No...NO...I want a *guaranteed* one! Wheel The World came through! It was great! Hotel was fantastic."
Robert
“New York City can be a brutal place for disabled travellers but through Wheel The World I was able to book an accessible room at a hotel in mid-town Manhattan, which also had parking for my car.”
