Walked in, swiped credit card through machine, was recognised, spat out slip of paper with room number along with a key card. To check out, swipe credit card, confirm bill, authorise to pay, and drop the key card into the slot. No human contact ... UNLESS the machines went down (quite frequent) or you wanted to ask them to keep your toilet bag until next week! So no reception is possible.

Highlight of my night was definitely being part of a two car chase of a 'hider' around lisburn finally ending in true police chase style with a boxing move to be proud of when jame's 307 was wedged between two cars and a red traffic light and caught! super first event, look forward to more and looking for the best hiding places and that smart car will not be getting me again!
