The breakfast has always been provided as inclusive during the stay and i have been a regular for many years at this hotel. However it is dissapointing that this is no longer provided. It was never anything special but a pleasant and welcome reason to stay here. The staff are excellent and a re think is necessary

This place was absolutely disgusting. From the moment we arrived we contemplated returning back to the airport. Never felt so uncomfortable at a hotel, slept fully clothed, sheets yellow stained, carpet looked like it had blood stains on it, even moved the desk in-front of door because we felt so uncomfortable. Gives I’m going to get trafficked vibes. Pictures uploaded on hotels.com are completely altered from the current condition. This place isn’t even worth $50 a night and we paid almost triple. Stay far away.

It didn’t !! Toilet wouldn’t flush and bath filled up when having a shower ! Oh and the youngsters of Luton all need a form right hand and to pull there bottoms up and take those hoods down !! Apart from that it was lovely 😂

From outside, the building looks like abundended, like in movies, need a refresh, new paint and more cleanliness. Breakfast starts at 7 am, but nothing happened till 07:10 am, that's why got late to my work. Half of the stuff we're missing in breakfast bar.
