We had an overnight layover and this hotel turned out to be a great choice to rest and recharge. The room was clean, the staff was friendly and helpful, and the bar stayed open late with food options available. They also offer airport transportation at a reasonable price, which was very convenient. I would definitely stay here again if the need arises.

Do not book the hotel shuttle as the receptionist/driver may argue with you about the collection time even though it's pre booked. Order a Uber or get a taxi using an app to get a discount. There was someone using power tools till minutes to 11 pm then several people were traversing through the hallways up until midnight. Depending on when you arrive, someone may or may not be at the front desk so you can get inside which is another drama in itself. If you are looking for a clean and affordable place to stay before travelling from Gatwick terminals with standards and a guaranteed good customer experience, it's better to stay at one of the chains, e.g. Travelodge. Avoid this place if possible!!!
