Great location and staff team but facilities tired. £90 price tag was high for the offer.
Pros:

Location and staff.

Cons:

The facilities and room felt tired. The electric vehicle charging is for the whole services. They are building many more and Tesla already done, but currently only 2 for all users of a busy services. No air conditioning so in May heatwave relied on a fan which in a small room with window restrictors was unpleasant. Lack of plugs by beds, room was small, TV not internet connected yet a smart tv! The price and marketing suggested premium but other roadside offers cheaper and better quality.
