The Green Man Boutique Hotel

Room number 3 was a lovely boutique room.. the heating was on when arrived,, which was really welcoming.. there's a bar& restaurant on site and the bed was probably one of the most cosiest Unfortunately the reason why I had to leave a 1 star was because when trying to get an early check in,, in the middle of no where, without anywhere else to wait, the owners didn't get back to you until 2pm,, the shower hasn't been cleaned from the previous person.. the owner let us know of another room.. that one has blood in it,,most of the rooms the furniture been broken,, most the electricity was broken, it's not safe to rent out and when went to get a feeling for the place down stairs,, everything was locked up,, lights and music were on but no one around,, the music was left on all night fire 🔥 risk and most of the room doors were a job to get in,, locked themselves,, worrying when trying to get out,, was a struggle,, don't think the place is manned through the night,, thought the landlord was spotted but then went to find out what was going on from the experience here the car had gone,, all the kettles needed de scaling.. couldn't have a cuppa and the light in the hallway kept going off,, when your in the hallway in the pitch black in the dark next to mirrors its terrifying.. check out was 10am.. no one was around but the lights were still on,, it is 15th century probably *******,, never stayed in anywhere so old,, it's so sad that everyone seems to of cut and run very eiery..not suitable for young vulnerable single people normally children

We really liked it. A 7 minute drive from Stansted. The room was warm and cosy when we arrived. Bedding clean and the room tastefully decorated given that the property dates from the 1600s. The pub and grub was shut for annual leave but look forward to trying that next time.

Arrived with no room number so could not get in. Phone number rang inside the pub which was closed. Waiting 1hrs and luckily got a reply via an email I found on Facebook to get in. No soap or shampoo, dispensers empty and rusting. Shower plug blocked so water not able to drain away. Not very clean. Very noisy all night, plus people coming and going all night long.

Paid for room, wasn’t sent check in details, no one about when I arrived, tried to call multiple times on landline and mobile number, tried emailing, no answer. Left out in the dark and rain with no other option to find another place to stay, then they had the audacity to not refund me, absolutely diabolical - avoid!

Let's just say I will not stay here again.... The restaurant's food left a lot to be desired, not good very at all. They do not do any breakfast. I had no hot water for 2 days, yes 2 days! On the positive side, the staff (1 person - Barman - waiter - cook) was a very pleasant guy.

Please don't make the mistake of thinking the official photos are representative of what you will see at the location. The whole thing looked very different, very run down and quite frankly dangerous. We were left wondering whether they had used AI to make their rooms appear nicer, or if there had been a starkly different managerial style some time in the past when this place was liveable. When we visited the electrical wiring was hanging out of the wall, the wall itself was very damaged, there was hardly any space between the tap and the sink to wash your hands and the worst part was that there locks did not work. There is no hotel staff on hand, you get your key from a keybox by your actual room door. The hallway is open to everyone and there is no security. In our case that meant repeated attempts by unknown persons to actually break into our room. We did not feel safe enough to actually spend the night there. So, it ended up costing us double - we had to pay for the room we didn't use and buy a new one in a real hotel for the same night.
