Nice clean, spacious rooms, staff excellent, able to accommodate our two rooms next to each other without being asked (they did check first that's what we'd like!). We were leaving too early for a hot breakfast but the grab and go/express breakfast was good, fresh, and a wide selection. Safe car parking (£14) at front of hotel good.

We booked night before and night after flight at the hotel, good shuttle service to/from the airport. Rooms functionable, I liked having a soft and hard pillow choice, the reception and breakfast staff were really nice, polite and professional. We will stay again when we next fly from Stansted

Handy for the airport
Exactly what you need for an airport hotel. Shuttle bus is convenient and costs £4 per person, service is good, rooms are spacious and comfortable and breakfast is of a good standard.

It would be better if the WiFi details were given on arrival. Breakfast was OK but the bacon was overdone. There wasn't any guidance and you had to be quick or your breakfast would be cleared before you get back with a fresh cuppa

Id like a proper refund. Upon arrival the gentleman who had checked me in was the only employee willingly working. There was another female employee who refused to leave her separate non work conversation to help check in guests at the hour of 1am. Upon entering my room it’s absolutely filthy. Blood stains, random stains are just grimey overall filth. The audacity to charge outrageous rates with no ground to stand on.

Overnight stay before flight
We stayed overnight due to our very early flight the next day. Didn’t love that their shuttles are only twice an hour to/from the airport. The rest was as you’d expect. Not the most comfortable, but a reasonably priced, perfectly acceptable stop while in transit.

The family room had a sofa bed as the second bed, with the world’s thinnest mattress, so uncomfortable and not fit for purpose. The cleaning in the room wasn’t great, there was an opened milk left on the coffee tray which makes me think it wasn’t cleaned at all. The staff at the front desk were lovely and very helpful. Grab and go breakfast wasn’t great, a bacon or sausage bap would make a massive difference

Great staff and service downstairs but the room was very much showing its age, cowboy repairs and general maintenance standards. Broken toilet seat, broken bathroom door lock, recent silicone sealant squirted everywhere and poorly finished, hot then cold then hot again shower, loose shower rail, loose toilet roll holder, leaking shower hose, poor shower containment etc etc. Noisy bed, rattling aircon, mouldy window sill, dog burns on net curtain (even though non-smoking) and a very odd damp dog stink to the room. Time for the redo.

The hotel was fine and good location as we were leaving from Stanstead airport for Italy. Easy parking, staff helpful, but the hotel needs a bit of a refurb to bring it up a bit. Good that they give you a pick nd run breakfast from 4am for early flights :-)
