Pros:

Lovely receptionist who changed my room for one with a bath at my request. Room was spacious, everything worked as it should and bed was comfortable.

Cons:

I don't think there should be a charge for parking considering the location is at a motorway services! I booked on bookings.com and was surprised to be asked to pay £5 more upon arrival. Be upfront with the price!!

Good location; comfortable.
Pros:

Breakfast was fine but the only option was cooked. I I would have preferred continental.

Cons:

Include parking in the overnight price. I would have preferred to pay £5 on the room rate rather than have it as an extra.

Ansonsten alles gut im Hotel
Pros:

Days Inn Hotel war gut, nur mit dem Frühstück ist etwas weit gelegen in einem Einkaufszentrum ca. 300 Meter entfernt.

Comfortable & clean.
Pros:

Convenient place to break a long journey.

Cons:

Given that it is a Motorway hotel, and you would not get there without transport, I find it galling to be charged for overnight parking. How to p*ss people off.

Good stopover
Pros:

Ideally situated just off Motorway. Perfect for anyone travelling with dogs, plenty of grass for last evening and morning toilet break. Pick up after your pet's obviously.
Clean room, tea/ coffee provided, towels and shower gel etc. Next door to your usual services outlets etc. Nothing to dislike.

Cons:

Nothing

Very basic, bed really uncomfortable, lumpy pillows £70 + £5.00 for parking. Not worth the money.
Pros:

Did not like anything.

Cons:

Everything including the price and parking has to pay even though I had a blue badge because there was no choice.
