Very disappointing
So very disappointing. On checking in they said I had not paid for breakfast, I had and it was on my receipt. The hotel refused to acknowledge this as said it was not on their system and that I would have to contact Expedia. Spent over 30 mins on to their customer service who said the hotel would not accept that I had paid, even though they confirmed that I had. Went up to our room, which was decorated for a 21st birthday- definitely not our room. Back downstairs to reception who were baffled but gave me another room. The noise from the room next door was horrendous, the walls must be paper thin. Very little sleep, beds were uncomfortable. I don't understand the bathroom layout, not much privacy. Overall extremely disappointed and annoyed.

Hotel inside was lovely, clean and friendly staff, great breakfast. Only issue is there was a lot of building works which meant the car back was reduced in size so we had to go to an overflow at the Excel. This was a short walk away but at least it was complementary. The biggest issue we had was leaving we left the overflow carpark and followed the ‘exit’ signs which brought us out literally inti a building site and the site crew were not happy we’d driven round there, and I was worried that it could damage my car. I know this isn’t the hotels fault, but it is their overflow carpark, so they do have some responsibility that guests leave safely and that signage is clear.

The staff was great. The location was way out in the east end but there is an excellent connection to the Elizabeth line which goes to the airport. Breakfast is definitely worth the money, but the dinner menu is not. The room is modern but I couldn’t attach my HDMI device.
