Temiz, güvenli, kahvaltısı ve çalışanları oldukça başarılı.
Pros:

Tesis çok temiz, odalar yeni, rahatsız edici bir durum yoktu, kahvaltısı çok güzel ama aynı şeyler olunca 3 günden sonra sıkıcı olabilir. Konum olarak oldukça iyi, metro ve otobüse yakın

Nice location and clean rooms
Pros:

Very well connected with public transport

Cons:

Breakfast area was full on the weekend. Would be nice to have a person there to coordinate things, because it felt like I’m in the hunger games movie just to find a table. Also more options would be good, was the same breakfast all three days.

Pros:

Clean, tidy, pleasant accomodation, staff accommodating and helpful, comfy bed, nice shower room with good power in the shower and funky toiletries. A great option that's a cut above other budget to mid priced chain hotels. You can get hot snacks/meals at the bar and coffee. Easy to swap rooms, I booked a standard room and was given a windowless room as no other available and the next day they swapped me over and helped with my luggage which I was grateful for. They provide bits and pieces like sewing kit, ladies pads etc if you forget.

Tip, join their rewards programme IHG hotels and book through the site to get rewards, discounts, free late checkout etc.

Cons:

The heating system, bit noisy at times and you have to call reception to activate the heating or fan. Can be a little bit noisy when others doors close now and then but you get that in most hotels.

The location is for me a bit far from a tube, nearest is Whitechapel or you have the Limehouse DLR which is nearer, but you can always get an uber. Fine for most people but I have a vascular issue in my leg. There's a bus stop very close by over the road but dont know where that goes to.

Not a bad stay
Pros:

The room was fine and comfortable, the staff were very helpful.

Cons:

The Breakfast was not up to its normal standard, there was only scrambled egg, and it was quite dry, the hash browns were soft and tasteless. the choice of food was okay.

Aangenaam
Pros:

Mooie en grote kamer, mooie badkamer met aangenaam grote douche. Vriendelijk personeel. Mogelijkheid tot hapje en drankje in de bar. DLR zeer dichtbij.

Cons:

Ontbijt heel simpel, zelfs een beetje te. Geen klein pistoletje te vinden. Enkel boterkoeken. Roereimix word vermoedelijk met water gemaakt, smaakt niet zo lekker. Spijtig genoeg geen koelkast in de kamer.
