A verified traveller stayed at Sandman Signature London Gatwick Hotel
"We stayed overnight before an early morning flight. The room was fairly snug and one side of the bed was against the wall, so if there are two of you, one may need to climb over! The wet room was adequate with a good shower. Bed linen was clean, bed was comfortable.
Adequate for it's purpose, convenient for either terminal and a reasonable price."
