Exceptionally friendly staff & very clean hotel
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally friendly, the breakfast was excellent, varied, and delicious. Everything was very clean and well-maintained. It’s about a 5–10 minute walk to East Croydon station. The room was spacious enough for a family of four.

Cons:

The neighborhood didn’t feel the most pleasant to me, but otherwise, many people were friendly.
