Reception was friendly, lady serving breakfast was really helpful and friendly too. Breakfast was nice with option of beans, egg and sausage available as part of the buffet style breakfast. The location was really good. I had a friend staying in a more expensive hotel near St Paul's Cathedral but needed somewhere cheaper. Shadwell station was just around the corner, I got on there and off at Bank tube station (tube took 3:minutes) and then had a brisk 10 minute walk to St Paul's Cathedral. For under £100 you will struggle to find better within such a short distance of central London. I loved it there and intend to return.

You Pays Your Money, You Takes Your Choice

Given the price, the location was close to the areas I needed to be. If you are paying for a budget room, the condition will be passable at best. If I could not find any other hotels in this area I would stay again, but I will look elsewhere first.

A place to book when everywhere else is full or ridiculously expensive. Functional low end hotel. Room was clean, water was hot, staff were helpful, breakfast was adequate. Pretty basic, small rooms. Not much going on in neighborhood.

Little love needed

I’ve stay here multiple times and different rooms. The room I had this time really needs some love. Room it self is ok new blinds needed and lock on windows. The bathroom is really big but let down by how clean it is. Also broken floor tiles that could easy cut your feet. Hair dryer cord is damage didn’t use as looked unsafe. Shower screen hard to open was worried it would break. Toilet seat loose. Bed was fine nice and clean and slept well. No fan in this room. Tv has had better days. Stay here before other rooms was fine. Breakfast is fine for what it is. This is not a moan more don’t expect 5 stars for the price.

Dockside - good value for the money

For the money (£117) this hotel did what we needed for the night. 5 mins from DLR & overground. Not really a tourist area & some would dubious about staying in this area, but hey we wanted a cheap hotel (father & son) , out drinking both days ,watching Sunderland at Wembley & Brighton at Spurs ⚽️❤️⚽️💙 The hotel allowed us to leave our overnight bag with them on both days, thanks for that 😁

Budget friendly, cramped space, satisfactory servi

Entered using door bell, there was a friendly reception who welcomed us. We were handed over our room key. The room was small in size, as expected being in London, with a double bed and ensuite washroom. There were toiletries but we did not receive any towels unfortunately. There was a closet but one lock was broken. The bed was clean with some stain marks on the bed sheets (not sure what they were exactly). Overall, the room was satisfactory. The attraction was the included breakfast. Most food items were supermarket purchased but the inclusion of the breakfast is an excellent thought.
