It was close to the airport where we were flying out. The breakfast in the morning was big and good variety. The candy in our room was tasty! We found the staff very helpful. The room was small for the three of us, but we fit.

It was cheap, clean and comfortable and close to Gatwick. I just needed a place to stay overnight between flights. Best part was that Clive drove guests to the airport. He also picks up during the day time. Unfortunately I arrived quite late and had to get a taxi (£9) so it really does add to the value of the Ambers that Clive does the chauffeur service. There is no reception after 7pm but Clive explained to me over the phone and in a detailed email how to get after hours entry to the guesthouse so there was no problem.

Clive, the host,runs a very efficient and friendly little ship. The location is ideal for Gatwick airport, and transfers were arranged bang on time. We left our car there (in the house's front car park) for a few days at a sensible price so were able to step out of Amber's own shuttle vehicle into own car and drive off straight away. There's a good selection of eateries within a few minutes walk/drive. Twice we dined at Ye Olde Six Bells, a delightful olde worlde pub/restaurant just 2 mins drive away.

Good location only 10 minutes from Gatwick Airport and within easy walking distance to restaurants in town of Horley. Speedy pick-up from the airport. The room had a combination lock and the hallway was dimly lit so that it was impossible to read the numbers on the lock without a flashlight. It was also difficult to lock the room. The bathroom was very small and cramped.

Friendly prompt service,pleasant staff,although the room was small ,it provided all my needs and the great free breakfast and shuttle service were the icing on the cake. A ll in all a much more pleasant experience than the impersonal almosphere of a large and much more expensive hotel. The size of my room and lack of tub bath but for one night I could live without these.

Excellent position near Gatwick Airport. They are a guest house and not a hotel, so we can't expect the same comfort. That's alright for me if the prices are kept low as well. Instead we paid the price of a hotel while was lacking: a decent bathroom (= the narrow space of a lavatory with a shower cabin forced into it - no sockets ) - a decent wardrobe instead of a plastic thing to hang on your things - a decent welcome (it looked like a treasurehunt, envelopes with codes and indications everyhwere, but no owner, so we helped another guest to find it and almost did the job of a hotelkeeper) - no style (impossible to receive an official receipt for our payment, unless we wait until "Daddy is back").

Close to Gatwick airport I was given a code to use for the key safe as I arrived after 7pm but as the safe was situated away from lighting and it was dark and raining it took me 15 mins to get my key. I was allocated cell no. 10 sorry room 10. a lifeless, small room which I was to get to know well as I never got a wink of sleep due to the horrendous noise of the floorboards in the room/corridor above and the constant loud whirring sound of the saniflows above [sounded like a hammer drill]. I seriously thought of sleeping in the car as there was no one on site to complain to. Don't stay here if you value your sleep!
