I would come back to this place and recommend to others.
Pros:

I liked the coziness of the place, very friendly and helpful staff, cleanliness, good location close to Gatwick airport.

Cons:

*It was very hot due to the weather and there was no AC but was a fan. Not a big problem but for a better comfort AC could be very helpful.
*A proper juice for breakfast instead of diluted one would be very nice.

Excellent hotel if you just need somewhere to stay before a flight
Pros:

Location was excellent and we could not hear the traffic with the window opened.Staff were excellent. We had a great meal in the evening in the restaurant.Staff went above and beyond expectations to accommodate my husband’s needs which was much appreciated. Thank you

Cons:

For the price we paid we can’t say anything . May be a plastic chair for the disabled to take a shower. There was a wooden chair and my hubby did not want it to get wet.

Pros:

Location to airport and shuttle service.

Cons:

The room was extremely noisy at night with sound of traffic even with the windows closed. Need double or triple glazing. Rooms could also benefit from a fridge.
