Smart and stylish
Pros:

Super comfy rooms, really nicely decorated, super facilities like an iron and ironing board, chilled water in fridge and tea and coffee. Great location for What's Cookin' gig venue next door

Cons:

Would be nice to have breakfast option. Hard to control the temperature in the room, bit noisy- but then again this is London!

An excellent pub/hotel to stay in in the heart of the East End.
Pros:

Overall I have rated our stay as excellent based on central location near tube station, staff friendliness and service, cleanliness, quality of room - large with clean bathroom - and facilities in the form of an excellent pub and restaurant.

Cons:

The stairs were a little tiring in the very hot weather. The hotel had no air-conditioning but despite that, the fan provided in the room did a very good job in the very hot weather.
