Lovely clean hotel, a bunch of us from all over Europe stayed here for a wedding. Public areas are lovely, and the room was a decent size, even for the three of us. The full English breakfast was superb.

Lovely decor in the hotel and bedrooms and nice to have a fresh cooked to order breakfast in the morning. Good for the Essex road network, I was there for business and the free wifi was a bonus. Beds comfy, only down side was noise of other guests banging doors late at night going to bed.
