"Practical but pleasant stay"

We stayed here due to an early 6am flight the next day. Staff were friendly, efficient and welcoming. Bar and food facilities were very good. Room was clean and comfortable. Hotel shuffle is a 24 hour service (£4pp) and takes five 10 minutes to transfer to Stansted. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and I would stay here again in the future.
