Premier Inn Basildon (East Mayne)

Clean, friendly .great place .Great price . Highly recommend. Will return

Third stay here, staff lovely. When booking no telephone answer from premises. Booked through main premium inn site, needed walk in shower,they couldn’t get reply to request. Room had shower but over bath so couldn’t have shower during our stay. Think will look elsewhere next time but that is a shame as very near family.

Clean room Friendly/helpful staff Reasonable car parking charge Tired looking bathroom Several breakfast items not available Decent value for money No air conditioning (declared on website) Easy booking via app. Needs refurbished..

1. Divan bed was not arranged with the beddings, duvet cover or no pillow cases. Single duvet was old but with no duvet cover. Bed was not arranged and we had to do all by ourselves. 2. The room was booked for 3 people but only 1 set of towels were kept 3. Shower is very old and the walls are moldy 4. No lift to carry baggage upstairs

Visiting family nearby, this was convenient at a reasonable price. I didn't need parking or breakfast, had dinner at the Beefeater one night and it was perfectly adequate. The staff were all extremely friendly and professional. The room had all the basics, (towels, hairdryer, kettle and mugs, TV, desk, sitting chair) which was all I needed as I wasn't there to do much more than shower and sleep. The bathroom was very clean, lots of hot water and complimentary shower gel and shampoo. The only negative was the temperature in the room. Basildon was having unseasonably hot weather the week I was there and there was no air conditioning in the room, the corridors or the little check in lobby. Leaving the window open was not an option for me (traffic noise, travelling solo, plus that would just let the hot air in!) All in all, it was a good stay and I would stay here again if I needed to.

The hotel is cheap, so what you see is what you get. Staff were really friendly. Rooms are tiny compared to other Premier Inns. The hotel is tatty and in need of a refurb! There was damp around the windows and the bathroom skirting boards. The carpets had gum stains and burn marks, could do with a good scrub! It was clean-ish, shower was hot. Chose not to have breakfast as Beefeater was also tatty. If Premier Inn put this on their refurb list it would be great.
