Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
rooms are nothing like the pictures. very small the the door couldn’t even open properly as it hit the bed. beds are very uncomfortable and we had holes and stains on our bedding. bathroom is no bigger than a caravan bathroom with a very weak water flow in the shower. also had no lock on bathroom door. states breakfast is available but when asked they said they don’t do breakfast. walls are so thin so could hear everything else going on in the hotel. when booking is says parking is included but once booked had to then pay for parking each night.
I really like this Bnb, it was really convenient and clean. The bed was comfortable and everything worked well. I would come back next year when I fly back to the UK.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
We spent one night here before flying home. It was convenient to Gatwick airport. The place was clean, we were on the ground floor which was great but the room had a food smell which wasn’t great. It also needed new pillows.
We arrived in the evening and had to use a phone on the counter to call for someone to check us in. We only had to wait about 5 minutes which gave us time to unload the car.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. Even when I called beforehand.
Hotel was very clean throughout. It has recent been refurbished.
I highly recommend.
Cheap & cheerful for what we needed. Easy to walk to from station & into town for food & drinks & easy to get to Airport.
Rooms outdated, thin walls. Lack of out of room facilities. Had lounge area but not in use. Bed uncomfotable. Managed for one night & all we needed it for a cheap price.
Very quiet are, close to train station with an easy access to Gatwick airport.

If you don't mind walking for 30 minutes to Gatwick then this property is a perfect overnight stop for a very reasonable price compared to the airport-based hotels.
The Guest House is mostly fine. It's well positioned for Gatwick Airport and it's a short walk to get some good food of an evening in Horley. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The downsides were that we stayed there on one of the hottest nights of the year and all we had was a wall-mounted fan to keep us cool. It wasn't at all effective and we hardly slept a wink. In addition, the shower could muster nothing more than lukewarm water at 9pm. However, it was only one night that we stayed and it hardly ruined the impending holiday. But we were exhausted the next morning...
