ibis budget Warrington Lymm Services

Arrived at 3am after flying. Reception in total darkness and no one at the desk. Had to shout to get someone from the back room and no uniform, being a branded hotel I would have thought everyone would be in uniform. Took a while to find the booking after looking at small bits of paper, I assume can’t use the computer or anything and not proper member of staff. Room very basic but to sleep was ok, mattress was solid but ok. Room looked clean enough. Was woken up at 7am, the reception staff opened up the corridor door and wedged it open and all the noise from the staff chatting and laughing woke me up. Why open a door when there is no need, and wake up guests.

The bed was like sleeping on a hard floor. Considering other services hotels in the same area provide a reasonable bed I'm not sure why this hotel has a mattress about a cm thick. The floor was wooden the room was totally sparse and only had a small electric heater. Quite loud from traffic outside and not the cleanest room. Needs some attention with damp damaged bathroom surrounds. I would not stay again. Other hotels of the same price range nearby offer a better nights sleep. On the plus side easily reached just off the motorway and next to the services with all he food and drinks options.

To say basic is an understatement. We checked in and used the bathroom. No soap to wash our hands. No toiletries whatsoever are supplied. There is a kettle but no tea and coffee. The flooring is very slippery. For budget overnight choose Travelodge or Premier Inn. Knock spots off the Ibis. Thank goodness it was only one night.

When arriving pleasant welcome, nothing was to much trouble. Would book again. Room was clean, tv own bathroom, tea and coffee when requested. M&s mc donalds pub all at your finger tips. Dog freindly, 5 pound a night.

Am "hottest Day ever"" in ein Zimmer zu kommen, dessen Fenster sich wegen übertriebenem Sicherheitsbedürfnis nur einen Spalt weit öffnen lassen, ist kein Vergnügen. Ausserdem schien die Sonne am Morgen voll gegen das Fenster. Ein Solarofen!
