You get what you pay for, and I personally didn’t feel ripped off by these guys outside the breakfast, which was horribly underwhelming and didn’t offer any meat options. At the end of the day, the world still needs affordable and accessible lodging and that’s what this hotel can offer. The good: affordable and was available last minute when I needed a place to stay- I booked the night before checking in and it was the only affordable hotel in London left. It’s close to the bus station that’ll take you to Stratford station. Nearby laundromat, pubs, and some budget friendly take aways. The staff was very friendly. The bad: like I said, no laundry but I’m wondering if that may be a different standard here as opposed to the USA where laundry is fairly universal for hotels and even hostels. The breakfast wasn’t good at all and I even skipped it my second day, so DO NOT prepay for it with your stay. The shower situation was odd- the bathroom floor is essentially the shower floor, so be prepared for the floor to be wet for hours after showering. There was also no nightstand.
Definitely wouldn't class it as a hotel, it's more of a hostel. Rooms were bog standard but we didn't pay much so that's alright but the rooms still weren't the cleanest and the drains kept stinking out the bathroom. The only God send was the big fan in the room since we went during a heatwave.
£81 for this place!!! It wasn't worth ½ that, place looks like it's stuck in the 70s. Staff were fine but the place is nowhere near the price, very basic room, place needs a massive update, even then it wouldn't justify the price.
