Well to be honest I only stayed, and that probs ly goes for everyone else too, because of its proximity to Gatwick Airport for an early morning flight!
Exactly what it says, clean safe lodging close to gatwick. Beds were a bit mediocre, but fine. The non-smoking floors still mildly smell of cigarettes for anyone with sensitivities

The service in the restaurant is slow and they forgot our drinks order. The burger is really not good-avoid it!
The hotel had several shortcomings during our stay. Firstly, they charged for internet access. There was no fridge in the room, and the air conditioning unit made such a loud noise that we had to turn it off. Additionally, the room lacked any furniture other than the bed. The television was very small, and only one towel was provided for two guests. The hot water barely worked, and there was no explanation given about the availability of a shuttle service to the airport, which also came at an additional cost. Being from Canada, I am accustomed to these amenities being complimentary.
30 minutes of free wifi? Who doesn't offer free wifi these days when you're staying with them?! No phone in the room? Couldn't ring to let them know the heating/a/c unit on the wall that had to be turned on as the room was freezing, was so loud. Isn't a phone mandatory? Safety requirement? Breakfast was awful....
Closeness to the airport was convenient, but not even a complimentary shuttle.
Overall, worst of the 5 hotels we stayed at during our 2 week holiday and would not recommend.

Children’s size single beds were too small and uncomfortable
FREE WIFI IS NOT FREE!? ITS 3POUND
Hotel did not leave info regarding transfer from Airport they offer... a Taxi driver asked us why we called him and not use their shuttle. Long day of travelling from Canada... excited to shower after the plane rides... get to hotel and NO SHAMPOO OR SOAP. dispenser was empty. Went to front desk and they gave us a plastic cup of green liquid.... turns out it was a foam dish soap!? Smelt like cleaning fluid. Dissapointing.
Overall I enjoyed my 3 night stay. Breakfast was included and there were sufficient options. However, the quality of some items were inconsistent. Whilst the room was comfortable, the carpet needs cleaning and a little more attention to cleaning bathroom doors and other overlooked surfaces. I was disappointed that there was no mini fridge in the room.

The room had a weird smell and the floors were stained and looked dirty. The cost of the room was high for what was received.
Good hotel with very friendly personnel.
Shuttle to the airport ($8 round trip)

The front desk manager felt the need to argue with us over whether or not breakfast was included. We paid for breakfast (through Expedia) displayed the paperwork and the manager proceeded to say she's not responsible for what a third party lists. She did not want to give us free breakfast but after arguing with her she sighed and said she would let us have breakfast. Terrible customer service. Terrible attitude. I would NEVER stay here again.
