Jó helyen, jó áron egy nagyon jó szállás.
Pros:

A szállás elhelyezkedése nagyon jó, könnyen megközelíthető tömegközlekedéssel (metró, busz). A szálloda egy modern új építésű negyedben található, sok étteremmel és bolttal a közelében. Néhány perc sétával elérhető London egyik látványossága a IFS Cloud Cable Car (libegő a Temze felett). A szálloda személyzete kedves és segítőkész, a szálloda halljában kis apróságokkal fogadtak minden nap (gumicukor, retro pop corn gép). A reggeli bőséges és sok féle ételből lehet választani amik még ízletesek is :). A szobához a lifttel is csak kártya használatával lehet feljutni, növelve a hely biztonságát. A szobában egy nagy méretű ágy és egy kihúzható kanapéágy volt, amik nagyon kényelmesek voltak és tiszta ágyneművel voltak felhúzva. Máskor is szívesen választjuk ezt a szállodát londoni tartózkodásunkhoz.

Cons:

Nem voltak nagy problémák, csak két apróság. A fürdőben leesett a törölközőtartó és eleve csak egy volt. A szobában a kihúzott kanapéágy miatt nehézkesen lehetett közlekedni.

Great weekend away with friends.
Pros:

Great breakfast with plenty of choice. Friendly staff who went above and beyond to help everyone. Spacious rooms and very clean bedrooms and facilities. Good location near the O2.

Cons:

Bit far from central London but near enough bus stops and the Tube . There is a shop across the road and a restaurant and McDonald's nearby but other than that sparse on restaurants and shops.

Not as expected for £325 per night, disappointing, would like a partial refund actually
Pros:

Over priced, compared with price later found online, staff didn’t care about this at all, not sure if we will use booking.com again in future.

Cons:

First room smelt, so had to change, second room ok, but not great quality, bed comfy and breakfast good, plastic on the floor in hall as work men were working
