Cheap budget hotel

It was fine for one night and room was quiet and clean. The only complaint was no refreshments in the room, it is shared with the guest, via a kettle, paper cups and basic refreshments in the reception area

I like rahjeh on reception. However expedia said that you could pay on arrival. Infact the payment tried to be taken prior on the day and due to it being an old card, payment was not taken. The room was then cancelled. Luckily they were able to give us one of the disabled rooms, however we did not have our own bathroom. Staff were very friendly and helpful

Don't bother - awful and dirty

Bedroom and bathroom were dirty (probably hadn't been properly cleaned in a while). Light pullcord in bathroom was disgusting and the toilet seat broken. There was hair in the shower and stains on the sheets. The room was very shabby and tired. Beds were uncomfortable. Reception didn't seem to care when issues were raised.

Great for what we wanted, close to train station. Room very basic but comfortable. Nice bars in the area and plenty of options for food. A lot of noise from neighbouring buildings.

Poor service, poor maintenance

I had booked 2 rooms for my family (inc 2 teens). Service on arrival was poor. Argumentative and lack of any caring attitude. Received a request to see evidence that the kids were ours. Also they wanted to see ID for our kids and my partner. They also showed us ID of other guests (breach of Data protection), this proved though they only took 1 person's ID. The hallways were soaked in water which were slippery. The rooms looked clean when entering but we found chair and fan broken. In one of the rooms, no towels were provided at all. The showers were dirty. Used soap in the shower tray. The shower frame (to hold the shower head to wall) was broken. Dirty rooms as we found empty bottles and rubbish down sides of bed. Barely any plug sockets and the ones we did find did not work. Windows were difficult to close so had to suffer with the noise from outside.

Affordable Stay in the Ambient London Fields

Super affordable stay—well worth the money. At the price point, you get what you paid for—it does deliver on all its promises, and the hotel staff were extremely friendly!
