    I think that must be the first time ive actually not had any problems booking a room

    Seemed really easy this time didn't it? :) - didn't crash for me. Got late July for good weather hopefully.

    OMG I got one!
    I've tried every time since this started and this is the first time! Went straight through and now got email confirmation.
    I booked it for the day after my final A2 exam so perfect treat after some hard work.
    Sorry to those who didn't get a room, I know how annoying it is!


    Nice that after your exams - I never use a credit card so got caught out there, must check the site Ive never had problems using a debit card before:rolleyes:

    I wasted some time by not realising that you had to put in a departure date and select a room!! I was luckier last time, when I managed to book one using my work's slow internet connection, thought it would be easier this time round!

    That has to be the easiest Hoxton sale yet! Straight on, no problems, got the two nights I wanted at £1 and £29, and my girlfriend has managed to get the following 2 nights at £1 and £29 too!

    I have to agree with ilikewatch - managed to book a £1 room at my first attempt. Have they finally sorted out their gremlins? ;) Well done Hoxton!

    The HMTL site didn't work, which is weird. Maybe they have decided not to use it in the sale?

    I managed to get a £29 room on the normal site :):) :j.

    I aggree did seem easier. No crashes this time, was weird. They were clearly prepared for it and taken measures against. Well done to all those who got one. I can't believe it sold out completly in 8mins!

    Better luck next time to the rest - it really is who has the fastest fingers!
