The location is generally considered quiet and convenient, especially for those visiting family or exploring nearby attractions like Lea Valley. Breakfast is often highlighted as very good, and ample free parking, including EV chargers, is a definite plus; however, some guests have noted that the restaurant has a limited menu and operating hours, so alternative dining options might be considered for evening meals. Overall, the hotel provides a good experience, especially for short stays.

Acceptable but Flawed Stay

inaccessible room thin door
The staff were helpful at reception. This service met my basic expectations.
The room was not accessible. A person using a wheelchair would encounter problems navigating the space. I was instructed to minimize noise because of a thin door separating my room from the adjacent one.
