"My room was clean and spacious. Twin in the separate wing. Food in the restaurant was awful at dinner and they’d be better serving basic English food rather than attempting foreign cuisine. It was adequate for my purpose of dropping off a teen at university. Parking was great although very full, WiFi good and location central. All being said I’d stay again when I visit the university."

"I think this place has potential. It did it's job for me, somewhere to stay for a night close to Stansted Airport on a bus route that runs late I to the night as I was on a late arriving flight. Price is very reasonable to alternative accommodation, the accommodation is clean, it just needs some minor cosmetic repairs doing in the room. Perhaps an automated email could be sent to people staying the night reminding them of the check in process and how to find the accommodation, as the reception desk is not staffed."
