As I had a graduation ceremony, this hotel was perfect because it had a great location. Just a few minutes walking to the campus of the University of Essex. The room was spotless and very comfortable, so I had a nice sleep.

The room is quite big and very clean. All supplies are provided so you don't have to bring your own. The public areas of the hotel are very British. There is a large lawn in front of the hotel which is very beautiful. It is really nice to run in the morning. The campus scenery of the University of Essex is also very beautiful right next to it.

The hotel has a beautiful environment, the room is very clean and comfortable. I stayed for two nights. The restaurant has delicious food. There are kindergartens and supermarkets around, and it is close to the University of Essex. It is surrounded by a national forest park, and you can see cute little animals when you take a walk.
