Avoid this hotel
I stay in hotels all the time and this one was an all time low. Depressing room and corridors, like a student dormitory or worse. At breakfast the credit card machine didn’t work so a helpful waitress took me to the front desk to pay for breakfast the manger shouted imperiously ’get to the back of the queue’ as there was a line of people checking out, I had already checked out as it happended and just needed to pay for breakefast. The manager was not prepared to listen and shouted at me in front of a line of people. The whole stay was an awful experience.

Not worth the price
We have never payed so much for so little. The rooms were small and was not worth the rate at all. It didn’t even include breakfast. Make sure that the rate you get includes breakfast, and check that the price on the voucher is the same as on the internet page.
Traveller's tip
Direct train from nearby station Farringdon to Gatwick airport.
