Brilliant little room with everything you need. Nice building apart sat nav takes you to the wrong road but we managed to find it. Close to the airport by taxi. We paid £17 for taxi which i think its overpriced and that was a taxi taken from reception (friend). Maybe normal taxi would be cheaper ,i dont know. Overall nice cheap short stay.

Poor room security

Ok for one night, room very hot and stuffy. Security of room door awful, one Yale lock with missing lock button. It woukd have been easy to shoulder the door open. I wedged a chair and other items in front - didnt make me feel safe as i was on my own.

Comfortable bed. Major issues: Disasterous shower which had a non-thermostatic tap resulting in water temperature swinging wildly from cold to hot. Minor issues: A few of the mains sockets didn't work. No decaf coffee.

Cozy and Quick Stay

Easy late check in, easy checkout. Gave me the options to head into town [about 10 min walking]. Quick uber drive to the airport. Airport to hotel was 25pounds and leaving was 12pounds. I needed 1 night to sleep. Small room but was all i needed. Bed could have been a bit comfier. Honestly, i needed a clean, cozy, safe, quick place and i was very pleased. I'd stay here again

Ideal stay for early airport check in .

One night stay and perfect location before heading to airport . Slept peacefully with no disturbances . Polite and helpful staff. Ensuite had the bonus of a bath as well as a shower.

The lodge is about a 10 minutes walk from the station, check in was fast and easy. If you turn right when you come out there are shops, restaurants, takeaways and bars within 5 minutes walk. The bustop that takes you to the airport is about a minutes walk, just turn left as you come out of the building. The Lodge has the timetable, it is also displayed at the bustop. Very convenient and comfortable place to stay.

Great value

Great value stay. The hotel is within walking distance from the airport, but there’s also a bus or a train you can catch. The rooms were a little dated but were very clean and the staff were lovely.
