I was mostly there for location, cool place, Brrrr

I couldn't get hot water to run out of those taps no mater how long I left it on, kept running cold. Cant clean much with ice cold water, I didn't try the bathtub though. but I sure wanted to. Also thermostat in my room didn't work? got very cold at night. I wanted to like this place but it wasn't very warm. You could hear a full blow convo on the street. like the windows were wide open, Im not a light sleeper tg, but if you are, bring plugs.

Staff were nice but there was confusion about payment and breakfast. Also the room shared bathroom/toilet with the other rooms but nothing like this was noted on the listing. The room had no heating on.

Good night but some nagging complaints

The shower and bathroom is not in the actual room and this was not communicated in the listing at all. I feel like this is a significant issue - I wouldn't have paid the price I paid, if I knew I was sharing a bathroom and shower and so I feel like they hide this information on their listing to try and drive more custom. I don't want to pay over 100 pounds a night for a room that I don't even have a bathroom in. I really felt cheated and annoyed by this and this was a shame because I liked the place and just wish I didn't have this feeling. I also think the check in time is totally outrageous - 4:30pm! This is totally unacceptable - again for the price point. I have stayed in loads of hotels around London and there has never been a 4:30pm check in time. The room was good/comfortable and it had a comfortable bed. The hosts are really nice people and the bar is a good place to drink in. The room was clean and it is in a good location for the DLR. They provide some breakfast options in the room, which was good/helpful.

You need to know what this is, and isn’t. Although a simple breakfast is put on a tray outside your room, it would be a stretch to call it a B&B - the room was spacious and nicely decorated and furnished. The rooms are accessed from a side gate and yard into the back of the pub building but effectively they are separate from the pub. The rooms share three facilities - a shower room, a bathroom with sink and toilet and a toilet with a sink. All nicely presented and clean. The Angel of Bow pub is funky and pleasant - every member of staff we encountered was friendly. But the rooms to all intents and purposes are unstaffed. Our issues were that the mattress was incredibly soft to the extent that it led to uncomfortable nights. And the noise from the main road directly outside the pub was fairly considerable. Ultimately we’re glad we tried this - there is lots to commend but we’ll probably try somewhere else next time we’re in the area.

A very beautiful accommodation in a very good community. Staff were very helpful, transport links were good. Breakfast was different but good different. Tea and coffee facilities included a coffee machine with capsules which was a nice touch. The decor was very boutique and made the room look striking and pleasant. Definitely worth every penny I paid and I would recommend this accommodation. Congratulations to the owners, they have something very good.

Comfortable room. Didn’t realise it was not ensuite until I arrived but maybe that was me not reading the listing properly! Nice spacious room.

Good location for the London Stadium, Great little pub and very quirky. Didn't realise it was a shared bathroom, but not really a problem. One thing I would suggest is new mattresses, ours was very soft!!
