We needed an easy, dog-friendly place to crash for 2 nights. Whitechapel is not the most beautiful area but there are tons of restaurants, markets, pubs, parks, etc. You've got the river and bridges to the south, Hackney to the north and Soho to the west so it’s relatively central. Transport options are good and there's Macro Food Centre right across the street for quality produce and groceries. The hotel itself is clean and everything in pretty new condition. Kitchen has a kettle with small coffee/tea set up, fridge has two free water bottles and milk, bathroom has Le Labo toiletries. Water pressure was strong only in the morning. Sadly the bed was small and lumpy with just one thin duvet barely covering it. No extra bedding and super lumpy pillows too. The window only opens a crack so ventilation isn't great. Our thermostat and safe were broken. Both mornings on our way out, we asked the receptionist to send someone up to fix them while we were gone. Both times we came back in the evening and still no one had ever come to fix them nor did any maids ever even tidy the room. The gym is small but clean, open 24 hours and in good condition. Breakfast is a common “continental” spread with pastries, cheese and meat slices. Not worth paying for with so many better options in the area. When we asked about the "free bottle of wine" we were given a tiny single serving bottle lol. Overall it's clean with good location and price. But let down in service and amenities.

Initially found the bed was slightly broken and asked to be changed to another room which they did very willingly but then when it came back, they gave me the same room and the issue was still present that given another room again. Annoyingly, the coffee machine in the lounge was always ‘taking a break.’ and breakfast was rather poor for the price with no cooked foods available But other than that, it was a comfortable stay..

The hotel staff was very friendly and there were three elevators that can be used. The room was large, but didn’t seem to be cleaned very well before our stay. There were parts of the floor that were sticky and there was old food left in the refrigerator. The couch looked a little bit dingy and dirty and could use a good steam clean otherwise very close to public transportation and easy to walk to surrounding areas. I was very happy to see shampoo, conditioner, and body wash available in the shower.

Room was fine. Area round the hotel is ok. Near Aldgate East tube. They make you check yourself in at reception though, including manually entering your passport/ID, name, address, date of birth etc details on a tablet at reception while the staff look on at you. Quite bizarre and not something I've ever seen before. I could have been checking myself in as Donald Duck for a start.

The property itself is very close to bars, the underground, Spitalfields with plenty of dining options. The apartment was well equipped. The only downside was an issue with the air con. We reported this at reception as the room temperature reached 24° and we were told someone would look in to it. When we returned it hadn’t been fixed, I’m not too sure anyone had even looked at it and no one knocked on the door later that night to see if they could fix it. After a long day exploring the area we were just too tired to ask again and most importantly, I feel like we shouldn’t have to report the same issue twice. It made for a slightly uncomfortable night and a speedy exit in the morning.

Staff was great! Washer/dryer combo offered in some rooms, but be careful damaged my clothing even on low heat. Small rooms, barely enough room to pass by the bed. There was a lot of hair that was not mine in my room, maybe from the cleaning staff.

We had a free upgrade, which was a lovely surprise! The location was perfect as we were mainly doing things around Shoreditch and Spitalfields, which are both walking distance. We were also able to walking easily to Borough Market with various things to do on the way! The hotel staff were amazing, really friendly and welcoming. The room was brilliant, clean and had everything we needed in it.
