“Quite an odd hotel. Perfectly located for Stansted airport and the rooms were perfectly functional. Plenty of parking but I did have some concern parking at the rear - it didn't seem the most secure. Check in process felt odd, can't quite put my finger on it but the staff aren't in any uniform and it wasn't clear whether someone is a guest, staff or some other random person. It wouldn't put me off staying again but I wouldn't give it 5 stars. For the price paid, it was very good.”

“Definitely a place to return. Cozy and very spacious e-suite with great towels and bed. Good heating and lovely continental breakfast ( £ 8 per person) with a very kind gentleman ( white beard). Parking a part not included in the stay if I am not wrong £ 6 night and £ 8 for whole day if you need to leave the car during your trip. They have shuttle as well, not free, £ 16 I think per couple one way to the airport. It is a perfect beautiful and very good price ( £ 43) for a good UK hotel and very close to the London Stansted airport. Forgot to take pictures of the bedroom and breakfast sorry about that. Just loved the paintings, very Italian style, never saw that in UK. By the way there is a microwave in the lobby for the guests.”
