Kc and Jeorgie were the main reason we stayed their professionalism,friendliness ,helpful and communication was exquisite and they are very hard workers and greatly appreciated. They gave us very good advice on where to go how to use the trains and different stuff they cared and made sure the happiness of their customers.

The place was a little older, the shower sprayed the floor and a few of the older staff were a little rude and not personable.The hotel is actually 45 minutes from actual London city center I was confused from the airport name and thought I was in the middle of London!!

Location. Parking. Comfy bed. Good breakfast. Good value for money.

The dirt on the bathroom floor that I thought was a huge spider, but was a clump of somebody else's hair... Dust around the electrical sockets obviously not cleaned. Fire doors all over left open. The heating didn't seem to work. The bath slippery at the end where you get out to the bathroom floor (no non slip tread in the bath there just the shower end). The shower where turn on at the wall had all come apart so not easiest to use. The shower head rose needs a good clean, all orange with scale. Couldn't read the 3 bottles on shower wall, presumably shower gel, shampoo, conditioner but couldn't read them. Not enough milk supplied. Only managed 1 coffee. Ran out of milk at breakfast, staff had to go to local shop to buy milk!!

Room was lovely and clean. Staff were really nice. The location is perfect. I enjoyed the breakfast. I had Avocado and egg one dey and scrambledegg with smoked salmon fo two mornings, very nice and tasty! We also had a Sunday roast dinner and it was exceptional 👌 😋 x

Sunday night we had an early night. We wanted to watch TV but the remote control was for a Samsung and our TV was an LG so we could not use them for volume control and picture settings we couldn't really relax and watch from the bed as we had to keep manually looking which wad a faff. However, we dont ho away to watch TV so it wasn't a hugh issue but itvwould have been nice ifbthey worked. 459.00 for a room you expect all the gadgets to work 😀

We had only one meal, breakfast. This was nothing exceptional but was enough for our needs, although a slightly larger serving of the full English would not have gone amiss.

The car park was very congested, although some would see that as a good sign! Finding the hotel was a bit of a trial as it is not easy to see when you’re driving, and we drove past it twice before my wife spotted it.

Quaint little hotel close to many restaurants and little stores. Charming small town vibes. They have an unbelievable vegan dish that I could eat every day-- and I am not even vegan. Friendly & helpful staff. Close to the airport (15 min drive or less).

No air conditioner -- just a small fan. No ramp or lifts. You'd better be travelling light. No halal sourced meat options, but expected since the place was not designed for tourists, I think. Away from the hustle and bustle of central London. No Ubers or Bolt service in the area. The reception will call a cab for you.

The hometown atmosphere.

There needs to be more information provided about the available transportations to and from standsted Airport. I went to the bus stop near the hotel yesterday and saw a schedule. But when I arrived this morning before 0400. The bus driver said the bus would come at 0530. There was no schedule indicating 0530 anywhere. Also be aware there are no taxi services that early in the morning. I used every taxi app and nothing. But I was able to make my flight, but barley.

The room was amazingly good value. A real feeling of history with the 600 year old beams. The bed was so lush!

Odd that the restaurant served my starter with my main course... very odd and left my main tepid. It would have been a good meal if not for that! At arrival there weren't any instructions about breakfast or check out, which would have helped. There weren't any instructions in room about how to use the TV or WiFi password in room.

The breakfast was good. The fish and chips was good. The room was tidy and the bed was really comfortable. Very hot water in the shower. All good really no complaints

Anything I didn’t like you couldn’t help being a pub. It was very noisy on Friday night and I didn’t get to sleep till past midnight because of people shouting outside but that’s a pub isn’t it I can’t help that
