Surprisingly Adequate stay

swift busadmirable sizefriendly staffgreat atmosphere
i found the location convenient for access to the O2 arena, a swift bus ride makes transport easy. The bed was of an admirable size, i also found plenty of room to move about in the room. I found the staff very friendly, that improved my stay. The pub downstairs created a great and inviting atmosphere.
The carpet in my room had several stains, the outdated look was certainly apparent. I noticed the carpet had what seemed to be some old burn marks. There were some rodenticide traps in each corner of the room.
