Amazing stay!!! It would be nicer to check out one hour later. Our room was clean and it had the necessary amenities. The breakfast was free and very nice and parking was free too. The only issue was outside noise from the busy road due to petrol station, M&S and Tobi Carvery. Although, I really recommend it specially for couples.

Great location for Braintree, Chelmsford and stanstead airport, just off A120 . 5 min drive to Freeport . There’s a petrol station and carvery restaurant within walking distance . Room was on ground floor ( only downside you can hear upstairs if they are noisy ) otherwise tv is unusually loud volume ( mine was on 7 ) room was big with ironing board , hairdryer , proper mugs. Shower pressure was best ever 👍👍

I overnighted here for an early flight from Stansted the next morning. The hotel is easy to find, just off the main road, and a short walk to the airport bus' stop. The staff were very friendly and the room was clean. Sadly I had to catch the bus before breakfast opened. I would definitely stay here again.
