Good location, but dusty and extremely hot in hot weather
Pros:

Location is good for O2 and other sights. Reasonable price for location.

Cons:

The outside temperature was 30 degrees and the room was at least 35 degrees all night. We had to keep window open to attempt to get any air which meant neighbours could see in.
Since the UK is seeing an increase in hotter weather they will need to look into managing this.
There was a layer of dust everywhere, from lamp to skirting boards, coffee caddy and tea jar.
There is also noone on site overnight.

Pros:

Nimic

Cons:

Foarte mizerabil, mirosea a mucegai, cazare nesigura, așternuturi patate, pete pe colacul de la baie si foarte multe probleme. Am cerut refund si nu mi s-a oferit.... Batjocoritor...

Won't be booking again.
Cons:

The room was just dirty they hadn't cleaned, dusted or even hoovered the carpet.
The tea caddy was covered in dust, not just a little dust but thick!
The bathroom and bed was the only clean thing in the room.

Decent but it’s an old pub on a busy road
Pros:

Old pub rooms that are without mod cons but worth It if you need somewhere nearby.

Cons:

It was very hot when I stayed, which isn’t the pubs fault! But the fan was not really enough to do anything for the temperatures. The rooms window was closed when I arrived so it was stifling in there, and faced the road with a creaking broken pub sign right outside the window. The chain was swinging loose and banging, which wasn’t ideal for a good nights sleep.

The sheets and bed were clean though and shower all good. I’d imagine if it’s not a hot period of weather it’s not so bad!

Friendly staff, room did the job but won't be returning
Pros:

Overall this was a good location, easy to access via bus which was a close ride to the nearest tube station. We booked it specifically for its location to Silverworks Island but this would work very well for visiting the O2 as well which is even nearer. Greenwich is generally a nice location to be in and you're on a main road with shops etc. nearby for convenience. There is rear door access to the rooms open 24/7 so once you are checked in and have a key you don't need the pub to be open to get in. They offer a 10% discount in the pub if you're staying, and all the staff we encountered on the day were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Unfortunately the room wasn't very spacious (which in itself is not a problem) but it was swelteringly hot. There was a fan provided but it was still very difficult to sleep. We kept the window open to try and help but this meant we could hear noise from the pub downstairs when trying to sleep. The bathroom was fairly clean and the bedroom was fine but I wouldn't describe it as immaculate and could have been a lot better.

I had also tried to contact the pub several times ahead of our stay, including the day before as instructed, to ask about early check in which we needed. Each time we got a canned response about requesting early check in the day before. I never got a response after asking the day before for a 3rd time so we had to just turn up at the pub when it opened at 12 and ask them. They were helpful at this stage, and were able to take our bags and let us check in later on after we returned from our event, but overall that wasn't the best experience as the lack of communication meant we were unsure what was going to happen until we got there on the day. Considering I was willing to pay the early check in fee they missed out on this.

If you're looking for a very casual and convenient place to stay on more of a budget then this room will do the job but I wouldn't say it's the most comfortable, clean, or easy night's stay we've booked in London and won't be staying here again.

Clean, spacious room with comfortable beds but be prepared for the noise
Pros:

Spacious, clean, comfortable beds

Cons:

Location, drunken idiots outside the front of the pub at gone midnight doing burnouts on motorbikes. The pub where you checked in was a bit rough and ready, and the entrance to the rooms and corridors were a bit tired.

Decent but could be cleaner.
Pros:

Good location, nicely decorated, comfortable bed, good shower, decent pub below.

Cons:

As others have said the room was not clean. The rooms were accessed round the back of the pub up a metal fire escape. Not an issue for me but for some it might be. No bright light. I like mood lighting but like an option to put on a bright light if necessary. Bedside light flickered on and off. There was a communal fridge in the corridor but it wasn’t on and when we tried switching it on it made a noise! Again as others have said a full length mirror would be good. It was hot but then we are in a heatwave and they did have a fan in the room that helped a bit.

Pros:

These are rooms above a pub on a busy street in Greenwich but just so fantastic location. 25 mins walk to the O2. Easy for transport links unti London.
Room was nice. Bed really comfortable. Tea/coffee facilities. Hairdryer and electric fan for when it's warm. Tv. Lovely shower/hair products. Fluffy towels. I was in the top floor which maybe unsuitable for anyone with mobility issues. The young man who owns them was extremely helpful. Had a wonderful stay.

Cons:

Only mirror was in the bathroom so difficult to see when styling hair.
