The good parts were... (1) spacious, clean room, (2) very comfortable bed, (3) quiet and pleasant surroundings. Arguably enough for a recommendation, given that Premier Inns seem to be aiming for a fairly down-market and basic level of competence. However... no elevator for the luggage-challenged to get their overnight stuff up to the first (second if you're from the US) floor; no washcloth/face flannels provided, apparently as a matter of policy (is this really true of most British hotels and inns now? And if so, why?); the box of Kleenex standard in most places was nowhere to be found; and surely free wi-fi for a mere half-hour is just mean? Also, the food in the apparently semi-attached restaurant next door was nothing special, and when we went back around 9.30 for a late-decision dessert we were shunted from table to table because laying up for the next day's breakfasts was already under way. I think it's probably going to be Holiday Inn for the next quick overnight stay.More
