The hotel is conveniently close to the airport and offers spacious, clean rooms. The staff is friendly and there is easy parking available. However, the bathroom had mold issues, which was disappointing. The price may not fully match the quality experienced.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and tidy with plenty of space for myself and my companions, but I wished we could have stayed longer to fully enjoy them. The service was exceptional, with the staff being attentive and always ready to assist. However, the location was further from the airport than expected, and the state of the rooms left something to be desired. The dining options were mediocre and not worth the expense, but the potential for improvement was evident. Overall, a decent stay but with room for enhancement.

The hotel is conveniently located close to Stansted Airport, making it easy to reach. However, the surrounding rooms and facilities were not up to par, with noticeable damp smells and cleanliness issues like stained carpets and furniture.
Dining

The dining experience was lackluster, with food that seemed reheated and a 'full English' breakfast that lacked eggs. The quality wasn't worth the money spent; we would have been better off elsewhere for a meal.

The facilities were in need of some maintenance and refurbishment, especially the dining area. Despite this, the potential for a better experience was apparent.

The hotel is located in a quiet area, which is appreciated, but there were issues with the air conditioning and breakfast. Although it was close to the airport, the rooms lacked proper amenities and had a damp smell. The service was friendly and prompt, but there were some lapses in the dining experience with overpriced options. Overall, the potential is there, but improvements are needed.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but I struggled with a noisy air conditioning unit that kept me awake at night. The service was friendly and accommodating, offering us hot chocolate and dealing with a broken light promptly. The location is convenient for the airport but lacks good dining options. The facilities were decent overall.

The hotel is conveniently located near the airport and various convenience stores, making it ideal for travelers. The rooms had issues with cleanliness and maintenance, such as a strong smell of bleach, broken bathroom fittings, and unclean sheets, which affected the overall experience. The service was generally good, with helpful staff, though there were some lapses in friendliness. The location is excellent for those with early flights or attending nearby events, and the dining options need improvement, especially for vegetarians and Muslims. Overall, the hotel offers potential but falls short in several key areas.
