Pros:

Overall, for the price and the included breakfast (which was the same every day - sausage, bacon, eggs, beans, cereals, milk, potato cakes), and location, it was a pretty good deal. The location is a bit far from the nearest train station, so you need to walk at least 20 minutes. And decent food restaurants are about 10 walk minutes away (I ate at a couple of places along Vicarage Lane) as were a few smaller supermarkets (I ended up going to Morrisons walking back to the hotel from Stratford station - it was also the shortest route). The room was spacious, the noise from the street didn't bother me and there was daily cleaning. The AC/fan unit worked well, as did the TV. So other than the distance from nearest transit stations or eating places, this was a good place to stay in London.

Pros:

The room was small and at the front of the property which meant there was a lot of traffic noise. Quiet regarding other guests and someone available all the time in reception. Breakfast was passable. The area around the outside of the shower could have been cleaner.

Great little find
Pros:

I truly feared booking a really budget hotel in an area I really don’t know but what a great find. The staff were great on arrival. The room, though basic is no less than anything at an Ibis or similar. Really comfortable bed, thoroughly clean. Didn’t stay for breakfast, but I wish I had. Smelt great

Pros:

Hotel DC was a great budget choice for my visit. A newly refurbished and nicely decorated hotel and a single room most suitable for one evening. The staff were friendly and kindly kept.my luggage the following day. I didn't have the breakfast the following day at 7am-9am is pretty limited and early on a Sunday! The complimentary beverages in the reception is a really nice touch though! Thank you Hotel DC, I will visit again!

Pros:

Lovely staff and nice breakfast, but the style of room in pictures when booking was very different from actual accommodations(just 2 double beds in a small room instead of a divided larger room).
Close to Westham United/London Stadium.

Lovely little hotel.
Pros:

Purfect hotel for our London trip. Easy to find,parking available at the hotel, chargeable but very reasonable. Breakfast was very satisfactory. I brought my own soya milk with me for breakfast. would definitely recommend this hotel only 4 stars for cleanliness, as a drain smell in the bathroom, the floor was clean, but feel it could do with a steam clean, looked like it had a build up of cleaning product. But thats a tiny observation on my part. Bed lovely and clean and comfortable. Thank you for such a lovely greating when we arrived to the self service breakfast.

Great little place
Pros:

Stayed here for a show at the Copper Box Arena, location was perfect and the price was by far the best. Service was great, staff very friendly and polite, also parking available which is a massive plus! Only downside I would say is that it's quite noisy(we were -1 floor) as in you can hear everyone walking around and doors closing, I would suggest carpeting the stairs rather than wood! Other than the noise level it was absolutely bang on, would recommend and stay again!

Pros:

This property looks very appealing and the rooms are OK. The staff at the front desk are friendly and accommodating. There is a bus stop, which makes it convenient to go to the mall and access food. Restaurants and bars are walking distance. My main area of concern is that the rooms are not being cleaned properly. The cleaners need to pay more attention to get rid of all the dust under the bed night station. The cleaning company needs to be changed. The AC units in the room can be a bit noisy.

Slightly out of the way, but worth it
Pros:

It seems like this building was purpose-built as a hotel, and it's so much more convenient than many other guest houses in London that have been adapted and converted from old houses.

My room for a single person had a nice and practical layout, with space enough to move easily even when I leave my suitcase open. The bed was really comfortable, but I wish there were two pillows instead of the one.

Breakfast was also pretty decent, with eggs, bacon and sausages, toast, jam and butter, as well as cereals. There was also a coffee machine.

The hotel is a bit of a walk (10-15mins) from the Forest Gate station on the Elizabeth Line, and it's not in central London, where most of the tourist attractions are, but I think DC is of great value for this slight inconvenience.

Pros:

Great hotel, breakfast was very solid, very close to bus and only a few minutes away from an Underground station that has a lot of lines running to it and a lot of different food options. Overall, the hotel was clean and had enough room for our family of 4. They have free drink options available all day as well, which is a really nice perk.
