I was asked for my drivers licence which staff member then went over to photocopy. I was given it back straight away when I demanded it before she copied it. It is illegal to photocopy a person’s licence. I asked another couple who were staying there re this & they had not been asked for their licence. I had booked only for myself. There was no mention or note in room of an internet password but I didn’t ask either so there may have been access.
