Is clean but not modern. The room is a big but could use some remodeling/rework to make it look more appealing. Good for a short stay if places you are going are around this area. Public transportation access is great though so is fairly easy to get around from this hotel.

Perfect for our Trip!
The hotel was exactly what we needed exactly where we needed it! We were there for Comic-Con and it’s a great location for the Excel Centre (a three minute walk from the station) - it was very clean and had a straightforward check in and check out process. The door to the bathroom was a little stiff and was therefore quite loud but that didn’t bother us! We had a fridge, microwave, kettle and cutlery in our room and there is a Tesco express 2 minutes away, which was really handy!

Very basic room in a nice pub. Let’s not abailabkenon arrival so waited around 30 mins. Had a beer whilst waiting so no disaster. Single bed fine but room basic and needs updating. Single shared bathroom for 7 rooms exceptionally tired. Fine for a quick, basic overnight stay but not for any longer.

Old historic pub stay
Old historic pub so room was a bit old and bed squeaked when you sat on it or moved, It had a shared bathroom with shower and toilet and was a bit old but functional. The room had a microwave, kettle,a fridge, a sink and some cutlery and plates and dishwashing liquid provided and a couple of teabags and instant coffee sachets. It was in a quiet neighbourhood and close to bus and train.

The staff were super lovely and caring! Super quiet area and a nice bed to sleep in especially. Had a rough experience in the area nearby but thankfully where the property is situated it's alot safer! Definitely worth it and multiple supermarkets nearby is always a plus.

The room was clean but it was even more basic than the photo suggested. WiFi was good speed though thankfully. Tea and coffee provisions in the room could do with an update.

Friendly welcome and room was great
Had a really nice welcome when i arrived. Room was of a good standard and reasonably priced for London Marathon compared to some places. Overall a comfortable stay. The only downside was that there was quite a lot of noise and the doors opening and closing were quite loud through the night. But it is London afterall i guess.

Convenient location for 02
Great location for an overnight stay after attending an event at the 02. Very easy check in and check out process with a very helpful host. Rooms were clean and tidy and the kitchenette was equipped adequately for a short stay.
Rooms could do with a bit of a freshen up due to wear and tear but this would not affect us staying here again.
