A Formule for success?

Advantages: Cheap, close to motorway
Disadvantages: Very few facilities

...I was looking for a cheap hotel in the area of Abbeville after my husband discovered it was about £50 cheaper (at least) for us to get the ferry to France on a Friday night than early on a Saturday morning, presumably because of all the day-trippers. I'd heard of Formule 1 before, and seen many of their hotels around on previous journeys through France, so decided to check them out. Background Formule 1 hotels can be seen across France, and are also available in other European countries, including the UK, Germany and Spain among others. For those of you travelling slightly further afield, there are Formule 1 hotels in Brazil, Japan, South Africa and Australia too. They're easily identifiable by the bright yellow colour scheme they all seem to use, both on the website and on the buildings themselves. They use a consistent...

Mollet De Valles - Barcelona -Formule 1

Advantages: Cheap, on the main stretch to Barcelona centre, relaxing and functional.
Disadvantages: get booked up very quickly in summer, no lift to floors.

...As this is the first review for this Formule 1, I'm going to make it a good one. We have stayed there many time's and always got a good nights sleep. These hotels offer exactly what people need, clean rooms, warm, comfy beds with TV, Basin and mirror in each room. There are half a dozen toilets and about 3 showers per floor (so not for those who don't want to skip down a corridor to the loo) and they even supply the washing soap and towels. In each shower there's a massive dryer to do the whole body!!! The corridors and rooms are all carpeted so your feet don't get cold on the way to the shower. The toilets and showers are all on an automatic cleaning cycle and several times a day the doors are automatically locked (when there's no one inside) and the rooms are blasted with water!!! My father suffers from a breathing problem so...

MD Formulations Moisture Defense Masque

Advantages: hydrates skin by 700% in 15 mins
Disadvantages: price to some

...smooth layer over your face and neck avoiding the eye area. Then leave on your skin for 15 minutes, rinse off with warm water then follow with your moisturiser. If you leave it on for longer, it won't do any harm. If my skin feels really awful, I will sleep in this over night and it works even better then as your skin heals itself and works best over night. It is recommended to use this masque 1-2 times a week or as needed, the more you use it, the better your skin gets, I would really recommend using it as much as you can for maximum benefits. Price and Availability MD Formulations Moisture Defense Antioxidant Treatment Masque costs £24 for a 75ml tube, which with correct use will last you approximately 6 months. You can purchase this from various websites such as www.lookfantastic.com and www...

MD Formulations - My Saviour

Advantages: Cures acne and fades acne scars, lasts ages
Disadvantages: Can make skin more sensitive to the sun

...The Product MD Formulations Facial Cleansing Gel for Oily and Very Oily Skin Types is available to buy from beauty salons that use the brand, or from online beauty retailers such as lookfantastic.com, and it can usually be found on eBay. It's an American company, so it's much more easily accessible in the US than it is over here, as well as being far cheaper over there. The RRP for this product in the US is $32 for a 250ml bottle, but here in the UK you can expect to pay anywhere from £20 to £30 for the same size. Why I Bought It I've always had greasy, acne-prone skin, right from my early teens, and though for the last few years it hasn't been as bad, it still really bugs me that I can't just have nice clear skin like practically everyone else on the planet! Whilst I hadn't been getting as many spots as I used to...

...of consumers. In UK only around 5% of the market is represented by budget hotels whereas in the United States the corresponding figure is more like 20%.Formule 1 hotels have a simple colourful design and do not have bars or restaurants. They are not everyone's " cup of tea" but for those travellers reequiring comfortable albeit basic accommodation for the night after their travels,they are a very welcome alternative to more traditional forms of accommodation<which are often grossly over priced...
