Very helpful staff that made check in a pleasure...for once. Although the accommodation was basic it was fit for purpose & clean. An excellent cooked breakfast was included which was duly gobbled up before departing. Would certainly stay here again.

Best forgotten

I am afraid we found the accommodation lacking in every manner. Infact once we saw the room we decided we'd rather lose our payment than stay in this place, so we left and went to another hotel.

Do not stay unless you are desperate. It wasn’t even that reasonable. The rooms are dirty No heat no laundry as advertised no hair dryer as advertised. No breakfast because of some leak in the kitchen Place is old and dilapidated. Rooms are musty. It’s a shared bathroom with everyone who stays at the facility. Just don’t waste your money and time. It’s a 15 minute walk to get the train

It is not a hotel

I am assuming this is some kind of half-way house. Cleanliness is the basic requirement for any hotel. The sheets were stained, there was hair in the bed, the bathroom and toilets were disgusting. Nearly cried when I needed to use the loo! Did not bathe and left as soon as it was daylight. I paid £76.21 for this trauma!

Not what i expected

Maybe did not read/check info that well, but espresso machine does not work in the bar, shared showers with questionable lighting and hot water. Very noisy rusty old fridge in room.

For budget London accommodation I was impressed with the Forest Gate Hotel. Pros: quiet location, easy walking distance to the tube (Olympic park 2stops away), affordable (for London prices), clean sheets, comfy bed, fridge, microwave, tea and coffee in room. Fire doors and a solid door lock. Shared toilet and showers but they are clean enough, a decent size and will good locks on the door. Staff are friendly and breakfast was simple but a bonus the next day, and was cooked fresh. Cons: it's an old building and it isn't freshly painted and high spec. If you're looking for luxury, you'll have to pay the cost. But it doesn't detract from this being a solid option for somewhere to sleep well for a couple of nights. I'd recommend it here and I'd stay again.

It was even worse I'dd expected. The room was dirty, the shower and toilets are very old and dirty and not in the room. You have to share the shower facility with others. After short use of the shower, there was not hot water left for the next person to shower. It was horrible. Instead of a 3 night stay, we booked another hotel for the last night. We asked for refund but didn't get it. We payed way to much money for this hotel.
