Updates to the rooms and property are ongoing, but the one thing I love most about this hotel is the accessibility to Heathrow terminal 5 via the Heathrow Pods. Rooms are small, which makes them not suitable for someone with a large wheelchair (mine is relatively small). Staff are super friendly and helpful.

I didn’t realise the hotel has no lift, and travelling as a single parent, I had a buggy, large suitcase and two rucksacks. I was original given a first floor room, but this was changed to a ground floor room, and the baby crib was delivered with 10 minutes of entering the room. Great service from the staff! £8.25 for the pod to T5, hotel to check in within 10 minutes, excellent! It is also step free, buggy friendly. Would stay again if I have a 7am flight.

The room was basic, clean and comfortable which was absolutely fine for a one night stay. The rooms are looking tired and in need of refreshing but everything worked. Front desk staff were very helpful. I liked that the shop was self service. Very good location for terminal 5 with the pod system.

Hotel is basic with very small rooms but comfortable. We got all what we needed: clean room, comfortable beds with soft pillows. Location is perfect close to the airport T5 which is possible to reach also with public bus 423. The only thing I didn’t like was check in experience , staff was not attentive and not helpful during self checkin process. This is something that could be improved.
