Overall it's good experience specially the guy Ahmed
Spent here 9 nights. Honestly, after booking the place and reading the reviews I felt like crying. No possibility to refund. The comments seem to be from competitors.. Nothing about bed bugs.. rooms are tidy and cleaned everyday. Staff is awesome and they will help you with anything. And most important you are safe. Left my laptops/money in the room everyday. I've also gave reception euros for them to change for me as I had to leave early and arrive late. Perfect. If you want to stay in London, 20 meters from buses (every 5 minutes)going to Sratford station on BUDGET , this is the place to stay. Now, don't complaint if you are used to higher standards.. you're paying for a 2 star hotel for "f sake".. you should be happy places like this still exist in London. I'll come back.. great staff
Fantastic Location, Great Service, Excelent Accommodation with cheap rate. Staffs are so friendly. Hopefully i Will come again next month.
It is clean, quiet and very professional. A team of extrodinary experienced staff that would go to the ends of the earth to give you the most pleasant and comfortable stay possible. I would highly recommend to stay here!
