Great location for the Eurotunnel. Extremely comfortable bed and lovely bed linen. Spotlessly clean and great facilities and extras i.e. tea/coffee, hairdryer and iron. Staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. We were leaving very early (4.30am) and a takeaway breakfast was provided which was lovely.
United KingdomSo close to the channel tunnel. Very friendly staff
United KingdomVery friendly and welcoming - easy check in and good communication before arrival. Very helpful regarding the needs of the dog. Love the location so close to the Eurotunnel, Tesco’s 300m away and many takeaway places 600m away. Very quiet room, good bed (but narrow if 2 people) lots of pillows. Thick curtains if you want to sleep in. Safe parking. Very quick breakfast room service. Good price
