Much of the above, eg between flights, with a whole family etc I can relate to, but my main grouse is about the poor bathrooms. At the price I paid I felt that at the very least there should have been shower cubicles, offering a degree of privacy. I compare it with Travelodge, near Heathrow, where I pay £29 for a reasonably sized room, own bathroom, tea/coffee making facility, TV and a made up bed. So, I can see myself using Rest and Fly again, but only if that's really the only option as I certainly find them very expensive.
Welcome to FlyerTalk, Aquinnah!

When you say that you stayed at this place one night, I can understand your dissatisfaction. I don't think Rest & Fly is meant to be a substitute for a regular hotel. It's just a brief stopping place for several hours or so.
