I wouldn't want to stay there more than one night.  It seems rather cold and impersonal (as do the owners)

spot on Avalon - it is cold and impersonal

Especially the cling-film wrapped brekkies!

I think the Suba hotel guy is going to mark lowly and pay well under what they are worth.  Candida is a pain in the posteria as well 

But he marked them quite high for most things.....which I find strange

he's playing the game well - he knows the comments come first but mean nothing because this is all based on how much they pay and they don't find out that till the end

I think if you're doing brekkie there should be a choice of hot and cold so people can choose which suits them best.  By offering only a cold option with no where proper to eat it (if you're expected to eat in your room, there should be a table and chair to do so) you could at least make it better than some manky bananas and cold cuts from the fridge 

 

Anyhoo thanks for the company and I'll see you tomorrow

Wouldn't fancy staying somewhere which is surrounded by razorwire.

Bedrooms were okay but the breakfast was rubbish.

Not a lovely group - Candida's hubby Peter seems the best of the bunch.

Hi Yogi Me neither...... and I agree Peter is defo the best of the bunch

 Hi Skylark It was a joke, wasn't it!

Best part for me booking in somewhere, is having a nice leisurely breakfast, a cereal bar in my room wouldnt have done it for me

I can just imagine Mr Yogi's face if someone gave him some cheese and grapes for breakfast.

Mrs Holistic Therapy hit the nail on the head when she said breakfast was like being in a hostel.

 Ditto.......and  if they only wanted to do continental breakfast they should have done it properly...... hot croissants, lots of fresh buttered toast, jam, cheeses, cold meats ,  fruit, juices

The best continental breakfast I ever had was on top of a mountain in Switzerland.  Warm croissants, unsalted butter, apricot jam and a pot of real hot chocolate, totally different to the sort we get over here.  Drools.
