This is not a hotel, but a motel! We stayed in an 1 room appartement 100 meters from the reception.
The motels location is the only good thing to say about it. So if you want to live downtown in Illford, close to everything there and can do wirh

First the area in very dirty it’s full of homeless sleeping around it, there was a big mess of bins outside the property which was really smelly attracting fly in the room. Overall I had a bad experience, I wouldn’t recommend it.

Nice hotel
The hotel is very nice. I do recommend them. However, when I first checked in the man behind the desk was gonna put me in with one bed, which I had paid for two and as it turned out, they gave me a room that was smaller than the one I paid for and only had one double one twin so basically they got the better because they got more money from me but all in all it was OK But I will not go back

3 bed rooms, convemient and cost effective.
No seats at the reception. No outside bathroom or waiting area. After check out, they don't care much. I think making that belogingness feeling is to an extend important. I missed that. Or else worth for the money paid

We arrived at reception a little early but were seen promptly. Once paid and deposit taken we were handed keys and told our room was outside round the corner. This wasn't clear when we booked. We were given directions to what looked like converted houses and our room was on the 2nd floor which wasn't what we needed after a long trip. We made our way up to the room. The room itself was what you would expect for the price. The bed itself was comfy and bedding clean but it was immediately obvious the pillows were not big enough. They were extremely thin and lumpy. You could tell where previous guests had folded them over to try and get a decent night's sleep. We asked for some more on the Friday we arrived but it took 3 days and asking for a manager before we got some on the last night.

Rather odd
I was surprised to be asked for a £100 deposit and then asked to walk up the road to another hotel. In that hotel, in the room I was allocated, there was no hot water and so I to move rooms. All at 11pm.

I won’t say it’s completely dirty but not my standards. The room is extremely too small. The bed blocks the bathroom door and makes it difficult to get into the bathroom and barely space to walk around the bed. I have busing all over my legs from hit the bed edge trying to walk around the bed. No air conditioner and the room wa extremely hot and with window open still hot and no screens so we have mosquito bites all over. Can’t believe they ask from £100 deposit when the hotel is more so a motel and nothing to be held money for incidental charges. Don’t stay here staff aren’t nice and the key card kept deactivating every or time using the key to get into the room.

Friendly staff, we were 'upgraded' from lucky8 to Best Western Greater London, which is 2 blocks away. Check-in took long to enable the room cards, but they work;-). Our stay was during one of the hottest Londen days, 30degrees celcius, and nog airco in the hotel rooms. So we had a very warm night with only air ventilation. Outside construction workers worked till past 23pm and that made an awful lot of noise. I would expect that this is normally not the case as the rooms are located at the quiet side of the building.
