Nice breakfast, bad beds.
Pros:

Liked the breakfast and range available. Location was convenient for us. Facilities would be OK if in better order.

Cons:

The beds were not comfortable - you could feel individual springs. One of the towels was stained. Kettle was not clean and could not be filled in the sink. Sink was a bad design as it sprayed water around due to the shallow shape. Bedside light fittings were in need of repair.

Pros:

La Limpieza

Cons:

Por la mañana el personal de limpieza desde las 9 empezó a llamar a la habitación para ver si la dejábamos y la limpiaba, la primera vez estuvo a punto de abrir con su llave. El check out era a las 11.

Pros:

Poca cosa. Un hotel demasiado tosco en un área de servicio de la autopista. Poco que decir.

Cons:

La cama bastante incómoda, la habitación aunque limpia, olía raro. Cobran por aparcar en un parking público con el pretexto de que es suyo y te enfrentas a una multa si no pagas. La bañera resbala. Precio elevado para un motel de carretera.
