It’s a cheap hotel in the area so you get what you pay for.
The hotel is smelly, as well as the staff, but they are nice.

Perfect place to stay when flying out of LGW
The hotel is very clean and the staff is great. I highly recommend them for a night or two when traveling out of LGW. They also have a very reasonably priced shuttle to the airport. 15 GBP for four of us.

Not a good value for the money
The hotel is in pretty run down condition. The shower in our room didn't drain, the outlet and TV didn't work, it was too hot and provided fan was very loud (the windows were to the parking lot on the street level and the workers smoked just outside). There was no fridge in the room so we couldn't save our food and the continental breakfast was as basic as could be. The carpets are dingy and the halls narrow and dark. All-in-all pretty tired and not very welcoming. The staff member at the front desk was helpful in coordinating our (paid) shuttle to the airport and providing extra pillows when requested.

Outdated bathroom with no fan, shower stall dirty and extremely slippery, no security features on room door, breakfast nook offered few healthy choices. Shuttle bus to the airport, although handy, was old, dirty and lacking a side panel.

Nuit Gatwick
Hôtel assez propre qui fait l’affaire pour 1 nuit.
Chambre pas climatisée et un peu vieillotte.
Petit déjeuner tres simple et pas assez fourni.
Nous avons quand même passé une bonne nuit.

Very basic room, stains on duvet cover made it look dirty, fan in bathroom noisy and inefficient. Soap dispensers in shower not labelled so didn't know which was shampoo or shower gel. Loose rug on floor a trip hazard. Breakfast very ordinary. Staff helpful.

Perfect for our needs. Close to airport with a shuttle( extra cost) that picked us up late and dropped us early for morning flight. Best bonus, Indian food restaurant in motel was delicious!!
