6.2/10 (422 reviews)
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.

Very noisy in other rooms and the window was left open to air the room which i understand but there were hundreds of flies so maybe a screen should be fitted.
