The mens toilets seem to not have the facility of heat. The water and the hand dryers are all without heat, and are in fact COLD. This is constant not just a one off condition.;

My son stopped at this service station at 1.00 a.m. one evening to take a break. He was tired and losing concentration whilst driving. As 'tiredness kills' he decided to take a break as suggested. He slept for a couple of hours and then continued his journey. A few days later he received a parking fine! Where else could he have parked - on the motorway hard shoulder?;

Toilets clean but in need of refurb. In fact the whole place looks like it hasn't had much done to it since its 1985 opening! Some serious potholes in the car park and on the access roads.;

One of the best service stations have ever fuelled up at. The shop was clean, tidy, loads to choose from with some really good offers. Fuel was well priced too. Excellent facility and would stop again and again. Well done!;

I have used this service stop for a number of years and have grown to expect a high standard of experiance when visiting. The last six months however there has been a marked change.The main problems, quality of staff, lack of staff and hygiene standards of staff. As a genuine regular customer I have not been able to find anyone on site to express my concerns so I will now no longer use tha facility, I might add that I have heard many other people over the last six months expressing the same opinion;

I had the misfortune of having to stop over night on the north bound side due to driving hours. I am an HGV driver. I paid my £20. I then went for a shower. At this point I would like to say that I stopped here some four weeks previous and the showers were not working. Guess what just the same. I then spoke to your duty manager, Di Huntbatch about the problem, She advised me not to pay but take it up with the manager Mr Paul Ruddy, but he never answers his phone. I then went for a meal, now about 8pm. Guess what no veg at all and very limited choise which looked dried out. Up to you now, what are you going to do? I would like a responce soon.;

You know half the problems with toilets at these places and at public toilets in general is down to the dirty pigs, that minotiry of the public that go, use these places and leave them in such a disgusting filthy squalor, blocked up with loo roll, can't be bother to flush their crap, and leave it all over the floor.
Cleaners aren't perfect, companies are not always right or perfect, but its the cleaners that have the lousy job of cleaning up after the scum that leave any public toilets male or female in this way which make me heave!

The staff are unprofessional and you can't find a clean table to sit at. We were a school party of 44 students and 4 staff and stopped here on our way back from a ski trip to Colorado, USA via Heathrow airport to N Yorks. I have to say thet the "long-drop" toilets somewhere up the mountain in the middle of nowhere were cleaner and far more pleasant experience than the ones here. At the Burger King I was shortchanged by £10 but two managers and a till check could not rectify the situation. A promise to contact me never materialised not even after another call to them a few days later. Incidentally they never answer the phone unless you are incredibly lucky - it took twelve attempts (my phone bill will confirm this). This visit does nothing to make me want to use Motorway Services ever again;

I had cause to have to use your service area at sandbach on the morning of 3rd of march. I drive an hgv and the m6 was completely closed due to an accident. having a very high trailer like many other drivers i had no choice but to pull up and wait for the road to reopen.Upon arrival the truck park was completely full up so i had to use the coach parking area i simply had no choice. after a mere 25 mins your wheel clamping crew turned up and gave myself and everyone els a stark choice of getting out or face a 250 pound fine for release. at least 3 trucks were clamped in there drivers absence. I found this over zealous behaviour by your clamping team outrageous.wether they are a private firm or operated by you they still represent your company. Put bluntly i had no choice but to drive 3 to 4 miles up the m6 and park on the hard shoulder.Please excuse my grammar im a wagon driver and not a scholar , i look forward to your comments ;

Neede a toilet stop last Friday evening. Bolton West is disgusting, but I am cheered to learn that the new owners are to tackle the dirty toilets in the only way possible - With a Bulldozer. They are beyond anyone other normal means of cleaning.;

I know that Moto have an appeals process for anyone who feels they shouldn't have received a parking notice. If you or someone you know has been a customer or fallen asleep and a parking notice has been issued, log onto the moto web site and get in touch with them. ;

We stopped there for a bite to eat, and although there is some building works going on, it did not hinder the access at all. besides, a waitrose is being installed, so its worthwhile!
I found the food appetising and it was a large portion. The eating area was clean, and there was someone always cleaning and tidying up. Did not use any other facilities though, but what i did see was pleasant enough.;

Went there on 11th July last year at 22:58, KFC was shut despite advertising that it was open till 23:00.
I know there's a delay in writing this review but it's taken me this long to come to terms with having to make do for an inferior burger king. Complained to head office but heard nothing back.
Blatantly run by a bunch of incompetent paedophiles;

The bleakest coldest place on earth.
I bought a small packet of digestives from the shop and was asked for £1.67
The member of staff responded in the negative when I enquired if she was married to Dick Turpin.
Amazed I managed to drive out of the exit slip road without damaging a tyre.

Costa at Watford Gap Services South Bound has some of the fastest, most helpful staff I've ever encountered on a motorway service area. We all expect to pay a premium price at a service station, this is not the fault of the staff, who all appear clean, hardfworking and dedicated. Thank you. Lovely clean, friendly service;

Stopped here several times but this may the last time! After ordering my meal and picking the nozzle of the coke machine out of my drink, I had occasion to complain about the undercooked chips and the grizzle in the steak pie which I left along with another piece of the coke machine in the bottom of my cup. All I got was sorry! - No offer of refund or another meal. I telephoned Moto's number from the board at the entrance to complain and got Sorry offices closed and only open at......
They state on every table that if you are not entirely satisfied what they will do. Obviously not. Then I tried completing their questionaire on line and after 10 minutes of typing and completing their form I hit the send button and it was rejected and came back blank. Hence this comment on this site hoping that someone from Moto will read it.;
