What can say? Awful
Hotel ‘room’ was out the back and up 3 flights of fire escape stairs. Bed was broken so any slight move made a noise. ‘Breakfast included’ was non existent. No evidence of any dining area or breakfast and no mention of breakfast by hotel staff. Daily housekeeping was clean towels left in a bag out side the room on one occasion. Carpets in room and flooring in kitchenette and bathroom disgusting. Food left in kitchen cupboards from previous stayers. Rat/mouse traps visible next to fridge. Used face mask left in top of wardrobe. Curtains hanging off the railing and overall decor was sub standard. No drawers to put clothing. Only one small bedside with 2 drawers and a wardrobe with no hangers provided. Towel rail in bathroom was not fixed to the wall so kept coming away. Not at all soundproof, woken throughout the night by various stayers walking past outside the window on the fire escape landing talking. Doors banged when closing, could even hear the extractor fan from the bathroom next door in our ‘room’. If the room was not ‘non refundable’ I would have cancelled this hotel and found somewhere else to stay.

My bedsheet was not changed on my in date.
My bedsheet was not changed. They kept for me an already used one with stains on it and they deliberately laid the bed with the other side of the bedsheets just for me not to recognise it meanwhile l gave them prior notice of my checking time. The kitchen and fridge also is very unkept. The fridge is very old and atleast needs to be kept neat. Bad customer sevice

Not bad.
The hotel is fine for the money. The room was out the back and up fire exit stairs and it was small but clean. Parts of the hotel are very tired but again everything is clean. In the kitchen area you can help yourself to a variety of foods.The location is excellent, handy for tube and DLR however Bow is not the nicest area. I would use again.

Cheap and does what it says on the tin......
Whilst this hotel will not win awards, it is clean, comfortable and served a purpose for a 2 night stay in that part of London. The room was serviceable with all the basic needs for a stay, sadly no tea making equipment. The bathroom was a walk in shower which was clean. breakfast was a self serve buffet style with cereals, fruit, toast, teas and coffees. This was a good place for me to stay as I knew I would not be spending lots of time there. In comparison to other nearby [laces this was a bargain, if saving money is the main reason for choice this hits the spot, if you're after comfort and a little bit more upmarket, this is not the one. Overall I am happy with my experience at this hotel.
