Staff were friendly, good tea and coffee facilities. However, cobwebs hanging over the bed and shower needed replacing, the base was covered in black mould

Staff were great, organised food even though pub very busy. Comfotable room.
Room basic but very clean. Extremely good value for money. Food was pub grub style but very tasty. Very close to Stansted which was why we chose it and would definitely stay here again
Ideal for my use, short stay to attend a concert nearby , Taxi service recomended was great. Room clean, plentiful tea and coffee. Bathroom clean, maybe would benefit from a little TLC sealant renewing etc but fine for our stay
