Całkiem przyjemny pobyt w dobrej cenie, polecam.
Pros:

Hotel zlokalizowany w dosyść odległej cześci Londynu ale dobrze skomunikowany z centrum poprzesz pobliską stację kolejki naziemnej DLR (Stratford High Street) oraz nieco bardziej odległą metra (Straford). Relatywnie blisko, ok 10 min spacerem od hotelu, znajduje się spora hala centrum handlowego.
Pokój czysty. Klasyczne, obfite i smaczne śniadnia w angielskim stylu. Miła i fachowa obsługa.

Cons:

Śniadania mogłby być bardziej urozmaicone - brakowało dodatków takich jak sery i wędliny, czy warzywa.
W pokoju przydałaby się jakaś szafka na ubrania, albo przynajmniej kilka półek.
