We stayed here after a late arrival at Stansted and it was the cheapest option. Its a a bit of a trek to and from the airport. As we were tired after our late flight we opted for an Uber which cost £28 (it was after midnight and the hotel is a 7 mile dive away) To return to the airport the next day we took the X10 Airlink bus which stops close to outside the hotel itself, (just outside the petrol station). It cost £3 each and took about half an hour. The hotel is an older one but it’s in quite good shape. The staff we encountered were all great. Friendly and helpful. The bedroom, we had 232 on the top floor, was nicely decorated, well organized and the bed itself was very comfortable. We sleep very well. Be aware that there are no USB charging sockets in the room. We used the one on the back of the TV to charge a phone. We opted for breakfast, and that was great. It’s an all you can eat buffet including cereals, breads, pastries, pancakes plus Bacon, scrambled eggs, sausages, mushrooms and hash browns. Even the coffee was delicious. Our only niggle was that the bathroom could have done with a deep clean. It wasn’t filthy by any standards, but the bath taps and grab rails were dirty and had finger marks all over them and there were dirty marks on the tilled walls. All in all though a very comfortable stay. Just not quite as convenient as we had thought. We would definitely stay again if we needed a local stopover.
