king bedrailway station
The room featured a king bed. A fridge was also available in the room. I found the location near the railway station very convenient. It was about a ten minute walk to Three Bridges station.
The hotel appears to be slightly outdated, especially compared to other establishments.

the staff helped a lot. i stored my baggage at the hotel before check-in, and they let me use the pool while i waited. the room had a fridge, microwave, and safe. the bathroom included a full size bath. the swimming pool was clean, and the temperature was nice.
The slip road to the hotel off the roundabout required extra caution. It was easy to miss. i almost missed my turn.

the breakfast spread was acceptable, and it offered various options to choose from.
The room i was given was not up to par. I found a stain on the bottom sheet once i was ready for bed, and the shower drain was clogged with hair. there were only hand towels available. Bath towels were absent. the overall standard of cleaning was not satisfactory.

Convenient Stay Near Gatwick

convenient locationgreat breakfastgym equipment
The location proved excellent with quick access to the airport. The breakfast was great (especially the sausages!). The gym had a good selection of equipment, I saw three treadmills and two stationary bikes. The bar food tasted great too.
The carpet in the room I stayed in showed some stains, and I think a deeper clean would improve the overall experience.
