Good hotel
Very good stay, excellent location for the O2 and very close to Canning Town tube station. Staff were very attentive and helpful. Lovely, clean but basic hotel with good links to central or Easy London. Breakfast a bit basic but generally good choice of cooked English and continental options. Secure on site parking for £20 per night. Little Sainsburys Local opposite which was handy too. Overall a good little stay and would book again if visiting the O2 or vicinity

Basic but functional
We had to move rooms as the first had smelly drains (room 110) Second room (330) had window that didn't shut properly so we had road noise.
Hotel very basic and a bit tired but functional.
Breakfast was plentiful. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Couldnt check in early, had requested this and called the day before stay & the morning of the stay.
Family room, unable to pass the end of the fold out bed once it was out, it was terribly uncomfortable, main bed was good.
Room didnt smell too nice id suggest the aircon unit long overdue service/cleaning filters etc.
Bathroom smelt damp and musty
Resulting inthe window being left open alll night and contending with the street noise instead.
Breakfast surpassed expectations and was ok.

A great stay , great clean room , only issue the shower either red hot or freezing cold , I had the cold shower which very brief , I’m guessing that was one of the eco initiatives, but it didn’t affect my stay

Okay if you need a cheap one night stay
When we walked into the hotel room we first noticed a large muddy patch, the rest of the carpet were no better. In the bathroom about 50% of the floor tiles were cracked, the silicone was yellow or orange with only a few areas being white and on the ceiling in the bathroom I noticed black mould.
Breakfast in the morning was an average English breakfast so there's not much to say there.
