YouTuber's two word review after night at M62 services dubbed the worst in Britain

It's the M62 service station that's been dubbed the worst in the country two years running. So YouTuber George Redfern went to spend the night.

According to a survey of 120 services and 30,000 visitors by watchdog Transport Focus, Hartshead Moor East, between Huddersfield and Bradford, scored the lowest satisfaction rating. George, 21, who reviews some of the most infamous and least-loved locations across the UK, went to see what all the fuss was about.

He spent a night at the Days Inn Bradford M62, which set him back £46.99 on Friday, May 31, but said he would 'never' go back. He documented the whole experience on his YouTube channel.

The clip covers various aspects of the services, including the facilities, cleanliness, customer service, and overall atmosphere. George delves into why Hartshead Moor East has earned its poor reputation and whether it truly deserves the title as the worst service station in the country.

Speaking to Yorkshire Live, George said: "As shown in my video the room wasn't in the best condition. There were marks on the wall, cobwebs everywhere, white paint splashed on the wooden wardrobe and bathroom floor.

"I also found suspected blood on the frame of the bed, which again is shown in the video. The bed sheets were clean thankfully, but the mattress itself had marks on.

"Moving on to the Eastbound service station, I found there was not much of a selection in terms of eateries, there are only fast food restaurants. The big issue I had was the variety if I wasn't feeling fast food I had no other option.

"There is no Greggs, no café or healthy option in the service station. I really couldn't get my head around how many Starbucks stores and stalls are in both the east and westbound side, I counted 10 all together including outside of the service station, inside the service station, inside the petrol station and inside the convenience stores.

"For such a small service station do you really need multiple places to buy Starbucks when you have a limited variety of stores!? On a more positive note the toilets have had a massive improvement since the negative reviews about them. All brand new and refurbished - well done to them on that!

"The bridge separating the two services isn't the best in my opinion. No protection from the rain, no lights to walk across at night and I personally don't think the barriers are high enough on each side on the bridge.

"Most services have a sheltered bridge to go from either side so you don't have to get wet or feel unsafe why this one doesn't I don't know, but its very disappointing. Once Starbucks and Subway are shut the shutters come down meaning only two tables are available inside to eat food or have a rest.

"I found so many potholes on the roads at the services and I think they need to fix them up asap as this affects truck drivers massively."

Asked if he would return to Hartshead Moor East, George said: "Probably not. If I was heading in that direction I would purposely miss this service station and go to another one."
