Clean room, good price. Friendly staff.

6/10 Good

I hadnt realised that it was a shared bathroom. However, this wasn't a problem and the hotel was in a convenient location and suited my purpose for the one night.
Christine, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were super lovely and caring! Super quiet area and a nice bed to sleep in especially. Had a rough experience in the area nearby but thankfully where the property is situated it's alot safer! Definitely worth it and multiple supermarkets nearby is always a plus.

8/10 Very good

Convenient located

Great location for an overnight stay after attending an event. Very easy check in and check out process with a very helpful host. Rooms were clean and tidy and the kitchenette was equipped adequately for a short stay. Rooms could do with a bit of a freshen up due to wear and tear but this would not affect us staying here again.

8/10 Very good

room for a reasonable price

Located in the centre of London, just a few steps away from DLR station All Saints. Check-in was easily done, the room contained everything you need for a short stay.

Perfect for our Trip!

The hotel was exactly what we needed exactly where we needed it! We were there for Comic-Con and it’s a great location for the Excel Centre (a three minute walk from the station) - it was very clean and had a straightforward check in and check out process. The door to the bathroom was a little stiff and was therefore quite loud but that didn’t bother us! We had a fridge, microwave, kettle and cutlery in our room and there is a Tesco express 2 minutes away, which was really handy!

Lovely pub with rooms

Lovely friendly pub/restaurant with great choice of beverage and food. Great location for events in London especially the o2 which is a 15min journey under the Blackwell tunnel. Really nice and helpful staff. Rooms a little dated but good enough for staying over a couple of nights. I was very happy to stay here.

So convenient for events at 02. Nice bar and food. Very friendly, helpful staff although service is very slow.

Is clean but not modern. The room is a big but could use some remodeling/rework to make it look more appealing. Good for a short stay if places you are going are around this area. Public transportation access is great though so is fairly easy to get around from this hotel.
Omar, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice place to stay for a week, though not grand or fancy. Rooms are basic but clean. About a 5 minute walk to the DLR line and 15 mins to Elizabeth. Canary Wharf area is interesting, lots of food options.

£60 in London!. You have to book this with eyes wide open. But it was fine. Good pub with food. Clean room. Comfy bed. Bathroom down the corridor. Absolutely fine.
David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff was very friendly and tended to my needs well, offering exceptional service. The food is also very good. One thing I does bother me a bit is that it would sometimes get kind of noisy outside at night and the window didn't block much of it. But other than that, great service with a dedicated staff.
Adrean, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I really enjoyed my stay, it was easy to find and the hosts were lovely. The room was clean and had everything I needed - I loved having a microwave and a fridge! The bed was really comfy and it was peaceful at night. The room was in need of a bit of TLC (some fresh paint on the walls) but it was clean and I was comfortable enough. I had dinner in the pub one night which was really nice. The pub is lovely has a nice wee beer garden. I would recommend this as a place to stay, especially if you want to be close to Canary Wharf but not in it!

Old historic pub stay

Old historic pub so room was a bit old and bed squeaked when you sat on it or moved, It had a shared bathroom with shower and toilet and was a bit old but functional. The room had a microwave, kettle,a fridge, a sink and some cutlery and plates and dishwashing liquid provided and a couple of teabags and instant coffee sachets. It was in a quiet neighbourhood and close to bus and train.

Friendly welcome and room was great

Had a really nice welcome when i arrived. Room was of a good standard and reasonably priced for London Marathon compared to some places. Overall a comfortable stay. The only downside was that there was quite a lot of noise and the doors opening and closing were quite loud through the night. But it is London afterall i guess.
Tom, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Basic and clean in area close to my visit. No black out curtains and close to flight path. Slept okay. No hot water for wash or shower for some reason on my stay.
Trevor, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very uncomfortable bed. Nice location

Location was the highlight of the stay. I stayed one night following an event at the O2 arena. This is well positioned for going there. Unfortunately the bed was extremely uncomfortable. You could feel all of the springs in it - making for a very rough night of sleep. Wouldn’t recommend staying on this point.

The room was clean but it was even more basic than the photo suggested. WiFi was good speed though thankfully. Tea and coffee provisions in the room could do with an update.

Good service

It was basic but that was all i needed for one night. Staff friendly and helpful. I was upgraded to twin room as manager not happy about coditon of single room. I thought it was fine for price I paid. Upgraded not charged any extra and the bar had German wheat beer on draft fine for me.

Staff was nice, room was on budget, very basic facilities.

It was a great place to stay for our trip, but due to the humid weather we struggled with the heat in the room. Maybe a fan or air con is something to look into :)
Rebecca, 2-night trip

Small, cheap and done the job, distinctly average place to stay, would be unlikely to stay there again.
