    Yes. I was just sitting in the room playing internet. Games. Then went to sleep...very quiet. In the morning, had their "2" sets of free breakfast. Caught the train back home! It was a month ago.
    Don't use their wireless...kept dropping. But they do have cable lead there...to plug in your lapee.

    I am sad too! Not just you.....

    What a waste of a hotel room!!!!! Or maybe I'm just jealous I didn't get one, despite trying very hard but it kept timing out on the payment part :mad:

    I'd certainly do more than just sit in my hotel room though! You're in London for gawds sake, the city that never sleeps :p:D

    Ahhh, but it's the hotel room I'm looking forward to Chameleon. I have been staying in London in a grotty place, sleeping on a lumpy sofa bed which cats used to lie on during the day and they had fleas!! :eek:

    So I'm looking forward to the luxury of a biggggg bed, tv (coz I don't have one at the moment) oh and the breakfast!!

    Sorry you didnt get a room :o , better luck nex time :D

    That's very kind of you, thank you, and I'd have loved to take you up on your offer but I'm now sorted for a weekend in London with the Travelodge £19 a room deal ;)

    I know it's not quite in the same league as the Hoxton, but I don't think I could manage to squeeze in another weekend away before xmas unfortunately, much as I'd like to :D

    Mushypeas - now I can see why you're looking forward to it so much and I hope you have a luxurious and restful night tonight :kisses3:
