Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms, although a bit dated, were surprisingly spacious with a massive bed that felt like a comfy upgrade. The cleanliness was acceptable, but you could notice the wear and tear. Breakfast was satisfying, and the service was top-notch even though the bed comfort could have been better for a quality sleep.
My stay at the hotel was comfortable and warm, although some minor decor issues needed attention. The value for money was excellent with a very clean room that provided functional comfort. However, the room temperature was uncomfortably warm due to limited window opening.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were a bit shabby with water marks and rotten wood, but ultimately clean and comfy. The service was a bit mixed, ranging from rectifying issues promptly to some rude interactions. The location was conveniently close to the center of Harlow, but noise from the main work station was a drawback. Dining offered accommodating options for dietary needs, though some choices were unavailable. The overall experience had its ups and downs, with certain aspects like cleanliness and convenience shining through.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms, while comfortable, could use brighter lighting and better ventilation. The service was a bit hit or miss, with some staff being friendly and accommodating, while others were unhelpful and rude. The location was great for our needs, being close to the airport, but the overall cleanliness of the place left something to be desired.
Although the rooms were dark and smelled old, the hotel had a good shower and a lovely large bed, possibly due to issues with builders. The service was accommodating, but some aspects were not in good condition, especially for the price paid. The location was perfect and clean, but with some stains from previous leaks. The dining experience was nice with vegetarian and vegan options but had some issues with breakfast items. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.
