Surprisingly good.

Pros: Reel easy to drive to Stansted airport for an early flight out.
Cons: Door jam should be fixed (room 20).
The girl at reception was into her second shift as someone had not turned up. She was still brilliant. She had two booking in my name, someone with the same name had also booked, but took the correct decision and kept my reservation. I was flying out early so thought I would miss breakfast, but to my surprise it was all set up 1/2 hour before it was scheduled to be. Well done.
