Convenient Stay Near Transportation
easy transportation nearby supermarket working heating great pub
The hotel's location near the station simplified travel around the city. Several supermarkets are nearby.. offering convenience for quick shopping. The room's heating system worked continuously, welcome considering the cold weather. I found a good restaurant next door and a great pub across the street.
The shower head leaked a bit. I had to ask for towels upon arrival.
Service

The staff waited for me even after my flight was delayed several hours, as I arrived close to midnight. The friendly staff were helpful with directions and information about local transportation options near the hotel.
Rooms

The double room was spacious, with many power outlets accessible for charging electronics. The bedding was clean, and the bathroom also looked well-kept with clean towels for guest use .

The hotel is next to both an overground DLR station and an underground station. A bus stop to the Stansted airport is within 100 m of the hotel and the train station to the stadium is 50 m away.

A kitchen area next to the room had a refrigerator, microwave, and kettle. Free coffee, fruit, cereal, and toast were provided in the kitchen to enjoy.

Adequate Stay, Some Concerns
station access supermarket options fast food options jamming door limited toiletries single towel
The hotel's location provides quick access to the station. I moved around easily because of this. There is supermarkets and fast food options nearby.
The room door jammed and it was hard to open and close. They only provided one towel, a second one was given with a weird look. Expect only soap when they say free toiletries, this upset me.

Great Location and Clean Rooms
convenient location friendly staff clean bedding good restaurant
I found the location really convenient. Tube and DLR stations are super close. Several shops were nearby. This made getting essentials easy. The staff members were friendly. The clean bedding and bathroom. The towels were clean too. The restaurant next door and the pub across the road were bonuses.
The building does need a makeover. It looks a little shabby.

The hotel is located close to public transport links, specifically tube and DLR stations, so access to key areas is very convenient. A petrol station with a supermarket is directly opposite the building. A café is in the same building, offering bakery products and coffee.
