    there was nobody to meet us and help with allocation, the only shelf in a wardrobe was broken, shower was not working properly as well

    Affordability, location near the Stansted airport

    To many things to say. It needs some serious attention and quite honestly should have guests until it’s had a lot of work done on it. We didn’t feel safe, random people came knocking on the door, there was no manned reception or staff on site. Cobwebs and dirt everywhere. The surrounding area is a rubbish tip. Basic at its very extreme. It definitely shouldn’t be offered as a place to stay by Booking.com or any other site.

    the bed was comfortable.

    grim when we turned up. the garage door looked like it had been smashed up and the front door was left open. we didn’t have clean towels and someone had already used the complimentary shower gel sachets. the curtains were almost transparent and the security light outside kept coming on. funny smell in corridor.

    close to airport

    The shower didn't work properly and I had to get the gentleman to help us navigate the shower as the handle is missing. There was only a quarter of a used toilet roll available and only 1 towel for 2 people. Saying this, it was late at night and all issues were rectified immediately.

    Very close to the airport! The gentleman who lives on site was extremely helpful at a late time in the evening when we arrived. The bed was comfortable.

    No-one at reception. Key wasn’t in box like I was told but that’s because they moved me into another room without telling me. Dirtier than I’d have expected. No towels etc.

    Bed wasn’t the most uncomfortable I’ve ever slept in

    A good place to cheaply stay the night before a flight but not a good place to feel comfortable.

    I was scared while I was staying as everything felt quite sketchy. The hallway stinks of weed, and it feels quite unsafe. It was really hard to find the building in the dark and it was unclear that I was able to walk straight in the front door.

    It was easy to get into the room - a code was given to unlock a box with the room key so it didn't matter that I arrived late and no one was needed to check me in. It was easy to get a bus to stansted airport in the morning.

    There was nobody on the very small reception table and chair that they have there. Pressed bell - no answer. After 20 minutes someone came out and told me I needed a code to access the key to the room. Nobody answers first 2 calls. Third call someone answered as Booking.com didn’t provide me with any code.

    The room was quiet. Room was as I expected.

    Cleaning the room would be a great start. Dirty sheets and towels, cups and bathroom weren't just from one night. There were old cob webs, and water stain/marks. I refused to stay, even though I arrived after 1 am.
