It was spacious and comfortable, we were only staying for the one night but both agreed it was somewhere we would stay again. The room was well kept, I had a minor frustration with the cast function on the TV but this was not a major issue for our stay. Transport connections to the hotel were great, there was plenty in walking distance too.

My stay was good. All you need for good sleep and transportation. However, I stayed for 4 night and the temperature controlled just worked on my last night of staying plus my WiFi in my room didn’t work so I will need to share with the room next to me. Also they won’t clean your room if you book less than 5 nights so that’s a little not what I expected. You can still asking for fresh towel though. This hotel is good and budget friendly.

Both good and bad

I have both good and bad things Iv'e experiecned. Bad: The carpet on the floor had a smell. There were no windows in the room so that was sometimes intolerable. Good: Riley (front desk) is the best. I've asked for a scale (portable) for my luggage at (almost) the middle of the night and we went above and beyond, going outside, to get me one! Best ever!

Reasonably positive, but room for improvement

Modern, fresh and stylish accommodation conveniently located to Aldgate East tube station. Room was rather cramped but this was expected. Great views from our room of The Shard and surrounding area. We had some problems with Wi-Fi connectivity but reception acted promptly when I raised this. En-suite was spacious, but shower door didn’t close properly and extractor fan not working. Some nice welcome treats were provided. Replenishment of tea, coffee etc would’ve been appreciated.

Too hot to sleep well in a nice place.

The reception team were very good, especially Simona. The location is excellent, close to public transport, eating options, supermarkets and tourist stuff too. The room was pretty modern and mostly in good condition.On the negative side, the bed was badly located for a couple, it was really dark, and far too hot for us to sleep.
