Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
When I checked in the staff was polite. The night staff member however was very rude. The room had cracks in the paint, holes in the walls, generally a unkept and and poor standard throughout. It has a dingy and dirty feeling throughout. A chemical like smell lingers around the place. Nothing more than a private room hostel.

The hotel is very close to the train station making it easy to get into central London. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is in need of decoration but this is purely cosmetic and did not dampen our stay.

In a part of London that didnt ooze safety around. Appreciate its London but wish we had paid the extra £20 for a more reputable hotel. The 2 single beds were not comfortable. Didnt get any comfort from the hotel so left without even trying the breakfast.

What a lovely hotel with such welcoming and friendly staff! Excellent location being so close to the DLR and overground. Very quiet and well sound proofed inside. Had a great night’s sleep. The room had lovely interiors and thought out decor - bed comfy, nice pillows and a powerful shower. Breakfast was a nice addition and the filter coffee was sublime! Only area can think of improvement would be an additional towel in the room and some more vegan options at breakfast, although there was enough for me to enjoy! Thank you Dockside

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We had planned a stay for 2 nights at the property. Upon checking in to our room, there was an extremely unpleasant smell - my friend described it as "smelling like death". We also saw a google review for bed bugs 2 days prior and decided we didn't want to risk it and left to stay elsewhere. Photos appear way nicer than the actual rooms. Would not recommend staying here until they clean up their rooms.

Reception was friendly, lady serving breakfast was really helpful and friendly too. Breakfast was nice with option of beans, egg and sausage available as part of the buffet style breakfast. The location was really good. I had a friend staying in a more expensive hotel near St Paul's Cathedral but needed somewhere cheaper. Shadwell station was just around the corner, I got on there and off at Bank tube station (tube took 3:minutes) and then had a brisk 10 minute walk to St Paul's Cathedral. For under £100 you will struggle to find better within such a short distance of central London. I loved it there and intend to return.

Dockside - good value for the money

For the money (£117) this hotel did what we needed for the night. 5 mins from DLR & overground. Not really a tourist area & some would dubious about staying in this area, but hey we wanted a cheap hotel (father & son) , out drinking both days ,watching Sunderland at Wembley & Brighton at Spurs ⚽️❤️⚽️💙 The hotel allowed us to leave our overnight bag with them on both days, thanks for that 😁

The smell of sewer was constant and sometimes overwhelming. The staff sprayed the bathroom with air freshener which helped for all of about 15 minutes. Windows were opened and the fan was always on, yet, the foul smell persisted. Will NOT consider staying at this hotel ever again!
