    The only thing that we really missed this time was the ability of having a hotel based pick up and drop off at the airport. However they did help us book our return to airport with the taxi company as our phone did not work in the UK.

    The room exceeded our expectations. We had stayed here years ago and our room this time far exceeded what we expected from our previous stay. The staff was super helpful with one of the female staff letting us use her own umbrella so as we could go out for supper. We were very pleasantly surprised.

    The restaurant was sorely lacking in table service, no cutlery unless asked, no napkins s&p…the samosas and the naan were quite likely store bought and pretty disappointing. The curry was nicely flavoured but quite fatty. Wish we hadn’t been too tired to have walked the 5 min into town.

    The lodge is on the old side but decently maintained. It’s nothing fancy, but the room was clean, the beds comfortable and the hosts pleasant.

    The road was quite loud. There was also a fire exit in my room and there were fire exit lights above all the doors making the room quite bright at night.

    The room was modern and clean, the owner was very friendly and informative and the location is convenient; just 6 minutes to Gatwick North terminal by bus and less than a 10 minute walk to the train station.

    Nothing !

    Good size room and very clean . Great location to stay before flying from Gatwick Airport with the bus stop a minute's walk away (£2 bus fare to either terminal ) Easy walk into town (10 mins) and 15 mins walk from the station (or bus £2) Would stay here again if flying from Gatwick .

    For the price this place is great. The guy at reception was really friendly and helpful, letting us know where to find the pubs and restaurants before we had to ask. Let's face it most people are only staying here so they can get to the airport for the early flights in the morning. It's no frills but everything was clean, tidy and comfortable. We could also leave our car there for 4 nights for a very reasonable charge. Will definitely stay again if flying from Gatwick.

    There was a stale smell in the room as soon as we walked in, we had to open the windows and spray to try to remove it. The shower water pressure was not great and the basin would fill up before it would drain! The room is quite small, particularly with two suitcases inside as well.

    It was close to the airport, easy for an overnight stay between flights. Had provided towels, body wash and shampoo. The bed was comfy and had clean linen. USB ports provided in wall for charging.
