This week, Channel 4 viewers saw a batch of Four in a Bed contestants gather together to reflect on their stays throughout the week. Going through the feedback and scores, the B&B owners also discovered how much people paid for their stay in comparison to what they charged. During the repeated episode, which originally aired in 2011, Gill and Peter wanted to get more answers from one couple, who gave them a score of five for overall cleanliness.
Commenting on their mark, which he called ‘extremely low’, the B&B owner went on to read some of the comments that Melvyn had made. On the sheet, Melvyn had mentioned his room had creased sheets with a small hole and a stain. Justifying his remarks, he said: “I think your staff should have gone through it, much more thoroughly.
” Peter replied: “That is our mistake and we totally take that on the chin.” However, Melvyn didn’t hold back as he told Gill and Peter their establishment didn’t differ from motorway accommodations He said: “It didn’t give us any ‘wow' factor.” In a separate cutaway, another contestant wasn’t impressed by Melvyn's criticisms of Peter and Gill’s establishment.
He said: “Melvyn gave him a very hard time I thought, as if he’d been hunting for things to criticise” Although it wasn’t just Melvyn who found issues with his stay as Deborah and Wayne weren’t blown away with their breakfast service. Explaining that they had waited a while before being offered a drink, along with some problems with the service itself, Deborah questioned if it was their first day doing it. Gill admitted: “We don’t normally serve breakfast.
Breakfast is usually served by the staff and we’re there talking to the customers so we were out of our comfort zone.” When it came to payment, viewers learnt that one person paid the exact amount, with another giving an underpayment of £30. Voicing they were disappointed with that price, the person who had paid below asking price called the rooms dated.
Melvyn and Sindy only paid half of the asking price for their room, giving £40 as opposed to the required £80. Sharing his reasons, he said: “I wish it had been better because we wanted to pay you more but it was a combination of things. That just really disappointed us.
