Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered a comfortable stay near a fire exit leading out onto a large grassy area at the back where one could run around safely. While the wifi connectivity was poor, the overall experience was good as expected.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms are up to date, very comfortable, and quite affordable, especially with the discount I got, even though breakfast isn't included. I'll definitely be coming back when I visit my family around Essex.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and stylish, making for a peaceful night's sleep. The service was excellent, the location convenient, and the dining experience delicious. However, there were a few minor irritations with the location and dining options.
