He had a point about the Roulottes too, being charged exactly the same as couples, I would have thought they should have said at least £20 less for him.
The only quantifiable saving when I've a single guest in a double room is not having to buy the extra croissants and pains au chocolat. The cleaning, laundry, heating and leccy costs are all the same and while one guest might use a little less water than two, equally s/he might take a deeeeeep bath 3x per day. So when I have a single occupant in a double room I just reduce the price by 5 euros.
Oh dear sorry about that it couldn't have been as bad as the divan dish which was a bottom draw dish.
To be honest, the dinner is usually fine but it gets a bit screwed up when 6 members of a TV crew are hovering around. I am sure they would have been poking Tony to say all the nasty crap that he said.
Not sure I know he hated Blackpool so maybe that was the reason? I thought he got on ok with gary and Sophie.
I'm sure his Blackpool loathing came into it, and he also said he thought the room was small. I was just surprised at the huge underpayment - altho' not the one from T&J

Oh yes, point absolutely taken, but in this particular instance I mean, where I don't think the prices quoted were in line with their usual rates.
I just looked at 2 nights next July for 2 people and it's £105 per night, so £210 for the stay and if it were a Friday/Saturday night stay in August £225.
I think they told all their guests it was £150 per night?
Tony thought it was best to go behind Stevens back and clean the room, then report it on the feedback form, rather than spoil his day,,,,,,it is not about Stevens day, it is about the room, if you was there normally you would tell the management how dirty it was, and not clean it yourself.
Probably one of the worst excuses for game playing I have ever heard on this program :mad::mad::mad::mad:
I hope on watching this programme Jeanette and tony are thoroughly ashamed of their behaviour. I won't be holding my breath though.
Their arrogance is mind boggling - no self awareness at all, otherwise they'd realise that they've won nothing in terms of reputation and made themselves look mean and ridiculous in the process.
Neither of them had particularly clean looking or well cared for nails.
Yes, he did underpay a lot and by comparison with the small single room he provided as well, albeit in a much nicer (to me) location. I was surprised, but I don't think there was any game playing or malice on his part, it was simply a genuinely held view and Blackpool is not for him, nor is that kind of hotel.
He had a point about the Roulottes too, being charged exactly the same as couples, I would have thought they should have said at least £20 less for him.
I wouldn't think they usually rent for one night and not for a single traveller either.
I think the single/double issue is slightly awkward, by which I mean that a single traveller pays the same as two, which distorts things. Gary paid only £40 at Stephen's because he was in a small single room, but Stephen had to pay the same as the others for his room. £80 for one does seem a lot, but OK for two. He had to pay the same as the others for his Roulotte too. I think he felt a bit out on a limb there, by himself.
Comments
That has me stumped! Meaning?
Yes, harsh. There seemed to be two Stephens - the sweet bumbling one, and the ....hmmm..... other one.
A previous contestant a right knob made chicken divan consisting of chicken in tinned mushroom soup covered in grated cheese and crisps:eek:
Tee hee, not that.
According to Dave Lamb, "Sue served a mess".:)

I hope they lose custom because of this
I saw that last night - if I could be bothered I'd go and stay there just to write a bad review!
That surprised me too, although he underpaid by £30 (??) for the roulottes, think he was a bit lonely there.

I agree, leaving the cleaning items behind was just plain nasty - a real kick in the teeth. :mad:
I suppose 'Who are ya' would not go down to well
Yep I agree and as for their comments about the heat. Nowhere was cool this year so should not have been judge.

I'm so with you, horrid couple...:mad::mad::mad:
