This was a great value independent hotel. Yes it is a bit old but it is spotlessly clean, the staff are very helpful and the breakfast is basic but fine considering the price. The Chinese down the road was great for dinner

I did not go out & about but I did notice a couple of supermarkets close by whilst driving. I ate at the Forest View, evening meal & breakfast was very... More

My husband and I booked a late-notice room here during the Paralympics, and we felt fortunate to have discovered a well-kept secret. The reception staff was friendly, the room was comfortable and clean, and a bus stop to Stratford station (a 5-minute ride or so) was situated directly outside the hotel. The surrounding area wasn't the most visually appealing and... More

We stayed here one night and were pleasantly surprised considering the price. The room was clean, the shower was good and we even got breakfast included in the price. The only negative was that it was a 15-20 minute walk to the tube which is not so good for a London trip, and of course the area is not completely... More

Stayed here for one night to go to Excel exhibition. From being greeted by a dog at the door I knew I had made a mistake............ The room was small and cheaply decorated and finished, the bathroom was clean. BUT.. The mattress and pillows smelt terrible and I had to wrap the pillow with a towel so I could'nt smell... More

I dont understand people in their negative reviews of this hotel. I stayed two nights and had two of the best nights sleep in years. First of all you must remember how much you are paying, too many people want 5* quality for the minimum. The only reason i give it a 4 is because of the area, wasnt the... More

Location good, dated tired building, tables in breakfast room dirty and table linen torn/stained, room size not bad, tiny shower room/toilet, noisy at night as walls are paper thin. Wouldn't not stay here again.

It's not even a hotel, it's someones home. Noisy Wooden Floors squeak. Not to mention really small rooms that the pictures on the website look far better than ANYTHING you can see from this place. The pictures on the website just looked so nice and I was dissapointed. Common bathroom was very small as well as solo room. So for... More

I dont think the place is fit to be called a hotel, looks like a house, didnt feel safe or secure. The dog barked and me and my partner, and the worker did nothing about it. Didnt even apologize. Faulty TV sets. Worst hotel by far. I would not recommend it at all
