They are no surprise to me. I have seen the crash pads (snoozebox) at Silverstone, which looked great there, having a garden outside them, benches & tables etc. I was kinda expecting Thorpe Park to paint them in their colours, but if they are only on long term hire, I guess they wont be able too. I'm planning on staying in one, they look pretty neat and reasonably priced (I think) compare to some hotels.
