First room the tv was broken. I went back ro reception and they gave me the key to another room and asked me to move. I did then checked and the new rooms tv was broken too. They suggedted i move again but i asked for a replacement tv which arrived but the screen was sticky-taped on and with no coax cable i couldd not get local tv channels. The rooms were tired and worn and need a refit. Very basic budget accomodation.

Very Basic. Bed was OK. Only one towel which got wet as the shower had no curtain at its end, so water sprayed out. No food so I had to walk a mile and a half to a pub and back in the heat of June 21st. Not good for my age bracket (elderly). Very handy for Stansted airport (which is why I booked it) but the taxi cost me about £25 for a 7 minute trip! I wouldn't go again.
Booked because the plane was arriving so late at night & wanted a nights sleep before having to drive home. Later realised that hotel didn’t have 24 hour check in so if plane was delayed we wouldn’t be able to check in. Booked another hotel instead. Very annoyed that a hotel describing itself as an “airport” hotel does not make this clear up front.

Convenient but basic.
This place is for convenience, not luxury! The room I was given was next to a busy road and also a residents room who had the TV on quite loud most of the night!
The bed was fine, but the bathroom in poor condition and smelly. The staircase and landing area was also dirty.
The only plus was it being a short bus ride to and from the airport.
It was... almost all right. People over the phne friendly and lovely. Place... well, poor. No way around it - its poor, dirty. It was priced accordingly, but yes - by far the worse we tried. Would I use again? In company of 3 mates and 2 bottles - possibly. With my lady - no, I think I wouldn't. It actually was less than enough. Very sorry (hate leaving bad reviews, especially when staff nice), but this really was a poor place. I suggest to spend 20 quid more on something else.

Could have done without the early morning rude awakening we got telling us to check out three hours before time- customer service training should be provided asap for this man, otherwise nice place if you just want somewhere to lay your head
It wasn’t unclean, but felt like it was; it was more worn out. There was a wierd smell in the air. It says it has a restaurant and bar, but not at 9pm it didn't. They told me it was better to order a take away, but the wait times were too long. So i ended up without (should have bought a sandwich before getting my Uber). There was no transport to or from the hotel (or i.would get a bus and.walk 27 minutes) which is why I got an Uber.
Room was basic but very clean and comfortable. Reception attendant welcoming and helpful. Great for the price.
A little noisy when guests arrived but our room was very nearby so a bit unavoidable.
The property was in good condition and the bedroom was perfectly OK. The young Asian man who booked us in was very pleasant and helpful when a small problem arose.
Unfortunately he enterprise seems to have gone downhill as there was no restaurant as advertised and the Wi-Fi did not work, even we were given the "correct" login details for the router.
Handy for the airport though!
It is a cheap place to stay for the location prior to an early flight.
No hot water or towels. Tea and coffee provided but no milk. Tv didn’t work.
Tolerable cleanliness but you get what you pay for. Would I stay here with my wife ? No but for a solo cheap stay over, it was bearable.

Don’t expect a comfortable nights sleep
There were 2 pillows but were on top of cushions, you could feel the springs in the mattress, you had to hold the shower head as there was no holder, the water never drained, the restaurant was closed, luckily we had eaten before, but could of done with letting guesses know as I was wanting a few drinks on arrival
Public transport there is non existent after 6pm, everything seems like a chore for staff, no towel provided and when i did get one it didnt feel fresh
Just very poor quality
My stay was really terrible. The staff was very unfriendly. My room door initially didn’t want to lock and that made me feel very unsafe … the manager got really annoyed with as he insisted I could work the door but even he struggle locking it. I got so upset and started crying as I felt extremely unsafe. Even after I asked to be moved to another room he made it clear that my room was the best in the place. But if that was the best then I seriously don’t want to see what the worst room looks like. I also didn’t have any towels in my room and had go and ask for some. Absolutely terrible service.

was ok...
i was staying one night for stansted airport the next morning. the welcome inside and information regarding local taxis was great. the room was warm enough, but the only major complaint i have was the shower. the was ICE COLD FREEZING :( no hot water at all. by the time i went to have a shower it was an hour before i had to leave for the airport and no one was there to help. unless you like cold showers, make sure to have a hot shower at home before staying or flag up to staff immediately. don't wait like i did.
