The hotel had a good size, clean, and minimalistic room that was nice and warm despite the broken radiator valve. The location felt perfect and safe, especially for solo female travelers, although a bit far from Stansted Airport. The dining offered a simple yet adequate selection but lacked in cleanliness at times. Overall, a mixed experience with some highlights and drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although basic, had everything I needed, but unfortunately, they were far too hot with no way to adjust the temperature. On the positive side, the location was perfect for my early flight from Stansted airport, but on the downside, the cleanliness left much to be desired.
Rooms

The rooms were basic but had everything that I needed. They were spacious and very close to Stansted airport, which was convenient for my early flight. However, they were far too hot with no means of adjusting the temperature, and the cleanliness was lacking.
Service
5.0
The service had its ups and downs. Although the staff were friendly, there were some discrepancies like misinformation about the bus stop location and issues with payment processing. However, the new management seemed promising.
Location
7.0
The location of the hotel was ideal for my early flight from Stansted airport, providing a sense of safety as a solo female traveler. However, being a bit isolated in the countryside made it difficult to access amenities and transportation options.
Dining
5.0
The dining experience was underwhelming with a limited continental breakfast that lacked essential items like butter. Although the options were simple, the absence of personnel in the restaurant was noticeable.
Facilities
The facilities were adequate for a short stay, but improvements in cleanliness and dining options would enhance the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient for early flyers like me and close to the airport, but the room quality left much to be desired with water pouring through the light fittings and bugs everywhere. The dining experience, although self-service and continental style, was decent considering the overall room price.

The room I stayed in felt more like housing for the homeless. There was water pouring through the light fittings and it was full of bugs and spiders.

The service was disappointing. The lady on the telephone and the man at reception were very unfriendly. The payment process felt sketchy as my credit card was taken to another building with no receipt provided.
Location

The location was decent, a 5-minute taxi ride from the airport, which was suitable for early flights, but it was hopeless without a car.
Dining

The dining options were limited, with tea and toast being quite overpriced at £4.50. However, the early breakfast service was advantageous for guests with early flights.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were basic but nice, quiet, and spacious, although the bathroom door was badly damaged, and there was a bloodstain on one of the pillows. The unheated rooms in November were a bit uncomfortable. The service was a bit of a hit and miss with some staff being rude and unhelpful while others were pleasant and helpful. The location was convenient for early flights and the airport but not ideal for night walks. The dining options were minimal, and breakfast was disappointing. However, the hotel was close to essential facilities for travelers.
