AVOID
Pros:

We were booked in for 1 night on Saturday 1st August 2026. We arrived about 19.30pm and on arrival we were asked to do the usual protocol pre authorisation of a card, passport or driving licence and fill your details in which we did.
After 5-10 minutes another male came out took us down and alleyway to our room for the night, not even in 5 mins and the same gentleman chapped the door said there had been another booking under the same name, strange I thought. So away back to reception we go and the gentleman receptionist said he thought I said another name and showed me the other guests details to which my reply was not that’s not what I said. Plus we were in reception for 10mins so he had plenty of time so see that they were 2 different names. So basically what happened was they overbooked so they didn’t have a room from us so we were sent across the road and round the corner to Best Western Ilford Hotel. They didn’t show any sign of emotion as in apologies nothing so wouldn’t recommend this hotel at all.
