Whitesupraboy2 Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 bit more of a description would be better lol ill be just off M1 like literally...will this make it any better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Not really http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=46474& It's a weird area, almost looks OK but for some reason it's full of scumbags. My other half works just off the M1 and cars get broken into outside the office all the time, as the link above shows the hotels aren't even safe! Having said this there is a hotel in a business park that has better security. Where are you staying and where are you going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 If you are working at the hospital you'd probably be better off at the Holiday Inn Express off Kirkstall Road, there is also a Travel Inn near there (with a TGIs) and the Crowne Plaza within walking distance. To be honest I'd probably come on the train and use a nicer hotel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 ok im considering this travel inn, http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&X=429000&Y=434000&width=700&height=400&gride=428962&gridn=433581&srec=0&coordsys=gb&db=pc&addr1=&addr2=&addr3=&pc=LS31LW&advanced=&local=&localinfosel=&kw=&inmap=&table=&ovtype=&zm=0&scale=25000&in.x=5&in.y=4 hows that area. cheers for this by way mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 colton itself is fine,its halton moor 2 mins down the road where all the scallys come upo from and rob stuff.colton is a nice area .make sure you have the car hidden on a night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 That's the one next to the TGIs, car park is a little bit dark if you don't get into the main one next to the hotel (usually spaces) but it's not too bad there, no real housing and not much reason for people to be passing by that way. Close to the city and near some of the students too Nice Chinese over the road, couple of casinos, Shell garage... erm.... traffic lights.... I'd go for that one over Colton anyway, it's still Leeds at the end of the day so plenty of scum around but probably less so in that specific location compared to some of the others Edit: 3 strip clubs up that end too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
