I am sitting in the rather poor Premier Inn Gatwick North after a rather poor "twilight check-in" experience.

Departures hall had one person slowly dealing with about 50 customers, which is annoying but that's what you expect nowadays, however the place was swarming with flies. With aircon not working it felt a tad third world.

Then through a Super Mario Brothers style obstacle course to get the Premier Inn (no signage, anywhere), queues to the lifts to reception, queues at reception, queues to the lift to my room, queues at the restaurant, queues at the bar while waiting for my table, etc.

An order for a bottle of Crabbies (ginger beer for alcos) resulted in me being handed a glass of cranberry juice. I went to the "restauarant" at 9.45pm and still have not had any food.

Oh, it's just arrived. And to be fair, looks great.

Oh there's an argument! Love people watching!

Just to clarify, this was the Easyjet twilight check in?

I presume the switch of Cranberry for Crabbies is related to our new Puritan lobby

sounds fun lol
ah holiday i really really thousand times really need one! work sucks at the moment.
hope you have a great time away.

The Hilton may cost a bit more, but the convenience of a walkway and the business lounge does it for me every time.

Enjoy your flight.

The Premier Inn is literally 10 yards from the airport but the signage was dire.

Hello Billy, where you jetting off to?

Hope you have a good flight and an awesome time away 8D

Have a lovely time Billy, bring some of that sun back with you

Well I hope you actually got a good night's sleep in a comfy bed after a decent meal and are ready for a good trip, so Bon voyage and all that.

However, should it continue on its current vein, do let us know ):
