Bedding was clean, bathroom was clean and towels were clean. Whole place could do with a makeover but I’d stay again. Was convenient for tubes and overhead to get where we wanted to go. Lovely restaurant next door and pub over the road was really good. If you are looking for a cheap getaway then this is ideal.

"Parking" is minimal and you get charged to use a space around the corner. Room was small but clean. Very little room in bathroom. You are getting what you pay for. Convenient to bow road tube station, short walk to ABBA and London Stadium.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Hotel was fine; bed was clean. Only bad points; some noise from outside but nothing too bad. Room a bit tatty. At the price it’s what you would expect. No cold water in the bathroom; only hot. Beware that after booking online via an agent, it is advisable to call them to confirm; there seemed to be some confusion with the receptionist as a result of this. And also they require ID (driving license/passport) for check in. Would stay again.

Don’t stay here

By far Dirtiest hotel I’ve stayed in as I was going in it smelt of onions the carpet in halls was thick with dust got to my room the bathroom stunk of feet and sweat between tiles was black don’t know if it was dirt or mold felt unclean getting shower and when I arrived my room was like a oven because the heating had been left on full in there and my radiator controller was broken in the room I went to reception and he had to turn off heating on my whole floor as my heater was broke. Nd stuck on full it took hours of leaving window open to finally cool it down I didn’t sleep till about 3-4 am had to leave window open all weekend because they kept turning heating on the beds are very uncomfortable the bedding was inside out dirtiest hotel I’ve stayed in by far i would advise to stay somewhere else I understand it’s a bit cheaper than other hotels but no need for it to. Be that dirty

Would not return

The mattress was saggy, the toilet was literally black at the bottom. There was black mold in the shower. The skirting board was full of grime. The room stunk. The bedding was crisp and clean.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I recently stayed at this hotel for two nights, booked through Hotel.com. The photos on the website looked great, but upon check-in, I was shocked by the actual state of the room. It was filthy dust covering the floor, dirty walls, an unclean bed, and a grimy bathroom. The room looked nothing like the photos, which, upon closer inspection, seem to have been taken in 2008. These rooms are genuinely unfit for anyone to stay in, and it’s clear they haven’t been maintained or cleaned in a long time. This experience left me deeply disappointed, as I trusted Hotels.com to provide accurate listings. I believe this hotel should be removed from the site, as it damages the platform’s reputation.
