          I'll remember that.

              I work at CW and used to stay in hotels 4 days a week average about £140 some weeks it's 250+ for travel lodge per night

              This week you will pay £700+

              Go on try to book the travel lodge (docklands it's a dump of all dumps) this or next week or any week <£100

              If you fancy a beer (sorry tap water on your rate) let me know and will give you some tips (or a cardboard box)

                When on a recent tour on the motorbike in Europe, the wife and I stayed at quite a few Ibis hotels.

                Not the most luxurious, but functional and clean, comfortable beds, tasty breakfast, wifi, all the essentials were there.

                Ibis London Docklands
                Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.

                      When I tried to book there they wanted my passport, since I don't need it when I'm booking other hotels I declined.
