Great location and the staff were very friendly and helpful. But there was construction happening which I wasn’t forewarned about and it was really noisy during the day. Rooms are relatively clean but could do with the curtains being cleaned.

It’s clean and close to ExCel so if you’re in London for a conference or expo, it can do the trick. Also let us check in early which was nice. Close to two transit stations (Royal Victoria and Custom House) However, they are really stingy on the towels. No face cloths or hand towels, also we ordered a room with two beds but they were stuck together with no real way to separate them. One night cleaning staff forgot to put sheets on the bed or a bath rug/towel in the bathroom. Also sink in the washroom barely drained. You have to be careful with the shower as you can get water everywhere due to how the shower is designed. Overall tough to recommend, there are better options. Use this if you’re stuck (like I was).

Really enjoyed my stay, the room just for me with a large bed, bathrobes, complimentary water, and a Nespresso. I think I must have received an upgrade. The only slight negative the bathroom seemed a bit medical clinical. Breakfast however and all the staff I met were fabulous. Near to Custom House Elizabeth Line station for Heathrow
