Most of the staff are nice and helpful. Bed was comfortable. There is no lift in the hotel, making it stressful to carry luggage to and fro 2nd floor.

Staff are great, room very well equipped. Only 2 things let the room down. The floorboard above are very noisy and there were no light switches around the bed. You have to get out of bed to switch the lights off next to the door.

Liked: Staff & service
Staff were quick, polite and attentive, however the room was quite dated and did not come close to a Premier Inn equivalent of the same price. The shower tray was cracked and didn't drain if the shower was on full, and the shower door did not fully close. The bed was only a double and a bit uncomfortable due to the sprung mattress. The room and property however were clean and despite the location next to the A13 / M25 junction, it was supprisingly quiet.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel isnt fit for purpose. Hotel is clearly old and in much need of a complete refurb or even better still, knock it down! Abandoned football ground next door completely derelict and area doesnt exactly feel safe as signs all in car parks warning of crime. You couldnt pay me yo stay in this place again! Expedia, I would take this off your list now as the photos you've used dont show this hotel in its true light.

Excellent stay as always

Staff here are always very friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Ample on-site parking. Good Wi-Fi. Restaurant and bar on site is nice with reasonable prices. Lakeside Shopping Centre is only a short drive/bus ride away. Chafford Hundred Train Station is also close by with frequent trains to London and Southend.

Big family room, staff super helpfull and nice. Quiet, safe parking. However, no air conditioning in the room. And oh boy was it cooking in the room. Even if they provide a spare fan. We jist couldnt go in the bathroom during the day it was litterally a sauna. Would go back in cold months but not in summer. We would pay extra for air con and fridge if available

This may be an isolated case, but over the past three days I had to visit reception twice to have my key reprogrammed, as it stopped working. Also, on Saturday night, the music played for far too long and made it difficult for me to get to sleep and rest properly before my competition.
