Handy for the airport. On site parking, though you need to pay extra for this. Room has a handy wall mounted fan. Shops and restaurants close by. Pretty reasonable price. Comfortable bed.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Outdated

Very much outdated house, creaking floors, stairs and doors, being alone I felt like in a horror movie at first. At least I saw other ladies being by themselves too, that gave me a little bit of comfort. But I heard every single move, people going up or down the stairs, movement in other rooms, people getting up and leaving at 4 am, I did not sleep much. Towels were not provided so I had to get creative lol. Just wanted to spend the night close to the airport before I flew out the next day but I do not recommend.

2 night stay

Hotel is just 5 min drive from Gatwick which was great. Room quite small but fine for just me for a couple of nights stay. Furnishings a bit out dated but clean enough. Bed was comfy. £5 fee to park per day which is reasonable. Would use again
