Very close from Underground station and bus stop. Only 10 minutes to city center using the metro. Convenience store a few meters away. Breakfast was simple but good and staff was friendly. Accessible price considering how close it is to the central areas.

Bath tub a little small but I don't really mind as I just had a quick shower.
The fan was already on, the room was a perfect temperature upon arrival so I didn't need to switch it on and have it humming while I rested. The TV had Sky, private bathroom was good, window, comfy bed & covers, fantastic location, well sign posted. Check out time 12, awesome, I had a long breakfast and a nice walk in Bethnal Green.

“Horrific”

Don’t know how this place is considered a hotel, I’ve seen better kept dog kennels!! The outside of the ‘hotel’ is nothing like it is in the pictures as is the same with the inside. The reception was in a separate building to the rooms. The man on reception was less than welcoming. As we made our way to the room we were greeted by a rancid smell and unbearable heat. Anyone with breathing issues would have struggled to stay. As we entered our room I nearly knocked myself out as the door bounced back in my face as the room was so small. The room came equipped with a fan which blew constant hot air in already unbearable heat. I then tried to open the window which was cracked and held together with a hair bobbin so I couldn’t open it. There was a mini fridge in the room which I thought if I opened would cool me down a bit but unsurprisingly it wasn’t working either. I then noticed an exploded electrical socket, stains all over the wall around the bin, a cracked bedroom mirror and the headboard of the bed was hanging off. I then went into the bathroom to find a filthy shower with mould on the curtain, stains on the wall, floor and the tap off the sink shot water straight at you. One side of the bed was higher than the other but was too afraid to investigate what the problem was under the mattress. Very little sleep was had due to the sirens outside every 10mins, the noisy suspicious men that lingered around the hotel day and night and the breath taking heat. Also slept with light on and chair against door due to this unsafe atmosphere. Paid for the room and breakfast but didn’t risk the breakfast based on the uncleanliness of the place! To conclude you’d be better off pitching a tent on any of London’s streets than staying in this “hotel”.

Disappointing
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Standard Twin Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
However, it was incredibly dilapidated with dirty carpets and upholstery. I was very shocked to find it in such a state when I arrived. It is almost like something you were expect backpacking in Thailand. There was dirty carpets in the hallways. The bathroom suite was old with mould on grouting. The chair in room was covered in white stains - its better not to have a chair in the room than to have one like that.
The staff were nice and I did feel safe inside the building. The upsides and reasons why I felt I could stay was that the sheets and towels were clean. The water was hot. The breakfast was fine. It had Sky TV. The tube outside didn't bother me as it stops between 11:30 and 5am - I had ear plugs.

The general lack of cleanliness. Room cleaning was only every second day.
The facilities are very poor. The bathroom was very dirty. The room cramped and noisy. It wasn't in the main building but outside in a different building.

How filthy our room was. No key access to the hotel. Had to buzz to get inside. Waiting a long time. No room service. Towels only when asked for them. No trash taken away. No instructions on how to use the shower. Scalding hot water. Very dangerous. Shower leaked all over the floor making it slippy, again dangerous. Air conditioning broken. 6 electric light fittings in room with only one 40 watt bulb in situ. Had to ask for light bulbs. Only one more provided.
Close to the underground.

“Don't go there”

- • Stayed 1 night

This was meant to be a deluxe single room. The bed was so uncomfortable, the only saving grace was the fluffy pillows. The shower was so hot and I couldn't turn it down so had to wash at the bathroom sink. The TV wouldn't come on as I had only a sky remote (I tried everything) A kettle but no cups or tea/coffee and the photos you guys have are nothing like the hotel. It's very scruffy outside and the inside wasn't much better, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone especially if you are a single person, I felt quite nervous on my own and I have traveled on my own many times.

“City view hotel........SH*TTY VIEW HOTEL.”

THE WORST HOTEL WE HAVE EVER STAYED IN......FILTHY ROOM! This place has never seen a dust brush, hoover, the cleaning staff obviously get paid less than minimum wage because they're not doing there job properly. The first room we were given had a fan and a T.V! Great right? Would have been if either of them worked. We were then given a second room which was a slight improvement, both mentioned previously worked but it was filthy. Had a slight inclination that the breakfast was going to be terrible considering that the poor buggar in the room before us had resorted to eating chicken in his room. This was quite apparant by the chicken bones found under the bed along with mounds of dirt.....and on closer inspection of the bed there was what seemed to be blood on the sheets and a gloriously stained mattress! Also had breakfast in the morning, should have had the rest of the chicken off the bones from under our bed. If this wasnt bad enough the staff in general were appalling.....one tip for travellers, dont waste your money might as well have stayed in a hostel. ABSOLUTE RIP OFF........pub on the corner was good though (salmon and ball)

Worse Hotel I have ever been, all those pictures they posted online are lies and over priced. We have booked for 4 nights when we entered the place we knew we wont survive for 4 nights we changed to 2 nights.Hotel was filthy dirty, disgusting. As you walk up the stair you can see the carpet is dusty and dirty,smelling, they were clothes and toilet paper on the corridor, bed was broken, bathroom was even worse with return smell toilet when flushing, like hasn't been cleaned for ages, bathtube. I am shocked that such place are allowed to operate as hotel. No one should ever pay to sleep in such a place.
