After reading some of the reviews on tripadvisor about this hotel I did wonder what I had got us into but it ended up being a great weekend. The Hotel itself is situated in quite a rough part of London but then if you book a hotel in Upton Park you should expect that. It is only a 10 minute... More

To begin with I would like to say that the hotel was situated in a rougth part of London, and if you are planning on getting back to your room late I wouldn't suggest it. Especially as the nearest tube station is a good 20 minute walk even with a quick pace. The hotel it self looked a bit grubby,... More

would NOT reccommend this hotel at all! We arrived there at 11pm at night to be shown to our room. It was not at all as advertised. The room looked like prison with bars covering the windows. It was dirty and rusty. My partner went to open the fridge to see what it was like and got his hand covered... More

Stayed here as part of a group booking. Good location, excellent value. The rooms are basic with shared bathrooms. The hotel is clean and staff are polite. Well worth a stay just for the good value compared to other London accomodation. More

After reading the bad reviews on here, I prepared for the worst (not being able to afford any other hotel- am a student) but it was really not so bad. The staff were friendly, though we didn't see them other than when checking in. The cleaner-girl was lovely. She made our breakfasts (very nice) in the mornings. It was clean... More

An unbelievable experience that I would not like to repeat. God only knows how this place is able to operate as an established hotel. Hotel must be acknowledged with a really open mind. This place is basically a shelter for the homeless! The room I stayed in was disgusting, from the dirty walls to the rag they had draped up... More

If you're not deaf, don't plan on sleeping before 3am on Friday or Saturday nights. I check in at 7pm (at the bar, as they have no front desk) and was shown a "Twin" room that looked like a small jail cell, the bunk beds barely fit in the narrow room. When I refused to stay there, the lady offered... More
