OK
Pros:

Great location, helpful staff

Cons:

Shower was designed for a man. My room had no window, so felt claustrophobic. Would have been helpful to have had some more printed information in the room (e.g. how to alter the air conditioning)

Pros:

Got woken up at 5 am with the brain piercing alarm , every single guest had to be evacuated outside . Safety first …. and I completely understand , I would hate not to know when there was a raging fire. However , that’s not acceptable when the cause of the evacuation is the smoke sensor tripping from a steamy guest’s bathroom. Rooms are super small and sensors are placed by the bathroom’s door , I suspect this is very common occurrence in this venue. Someone takes a nice hot shower and trips the sensor, and you can say good bye to finishing up your sleep , that probably goes for every single guest during that event .

Cons:

Not able to go to sleep after complete hotel evacuation

Tiny expensive room
Pros:

A clean tidy tiny room. Maybe OK if you wanted to catch a few hours sleep between flights.

Cons:

The room was tiny and expensive. No room to put anything or sit, except on the bed. The bathroom was similar to a motorhome. When having shower, water went everywhere. Nothing to see or do at Gatwick, except eat (a few good cafes and bars).

Pros:

Check in facile e automatico con il link che viene mandato via mail/booking. Dal telefono si può gestire comodamente accesso al piano (l'ascensore funziona avvicinando il proprio telefono), apertura porta della camera, accensione luci e aria condizionata. Stanza piccola, letto alla francese, tv grande. Bagno di dimensioni ridotte ma adatte alla camera. Non c'è un piatto doccia e questo fa bagnare il wc che si trova molto vicino. Dotato di asciugacapelli, asciugamani, grucce (senza armadio però). Abbiamo anche trovato due bottogliette d'acqua al nostro arrivo, ma non c'è un frigo bar. Check out facile e super comodo perché all'interno del Terminal Sud. Noi avevamo la partenza del volo dal terminal Nord e abbiamo comunque fatto tutto agevolmente e nei tempi grazie ad una navetta che in un paio di minuti collega i due terminal.

Cons:

La nostra stanza era senza finestra e questo può dare un senso di oppressione (nonostante un riquadro con dei led che "simula" una finestra) ma per trascorrere poche ore in aeroporto è un'ottima soluzione.
