I am not the biggest fan of budget or cheap hotels, I like my home comforts. \u00a0This could be because I spent several months living in a\u00a0travel lodge\u00a0a few years ago, or because when growing up I was taken to some fantastic hotels when\u00a0travelling\u00a0with my parents, who can say. \u00a0Well I am reconsidering now. \u00a0Yes the room is basic, but at least it has AC, it is not a shoebox and there are more than enough plugs for me to plug in all my gadgets. \u00a0On the down side\u00a0there is a terrible selection of free TV channels and the tea making facilities are limited, also their wi-fi sucks big time it is almost like being back on ISDN but without the constant connection speed. \u00a0On the important matter of food, the menu is limited but then I was not expecting much, ordered the steak expecting the worst. \u00a0My expectation was low due to past experiences, a slice of\u00a0something\u00a0grey that has been cooked to within an inch of it’s life and may or may not have been near a cow. \u00a0First\u00a0surprise\u00a0was that I was asked how I wanted it, of course I answered “rare”. \u00a0Second\u00a0surprise, when it arrived it was a good\u00a0juicy\u00a0steak, this chain don’t seem to use the excuse of “Oh that’s the pre-cooked weight”, I cut in and it is perfectly cooked just the way I do it,\u00a0basically\u00a0just show to the grill.<\/p>\n
