City View Hotel - Roman Road Market

Pleasant

Cheap and cheerful

Liked: Cheap, had a fan, clean, comfortable bed
Disliked: Had a fridge in the room.but the door was disconnected completely so unusable but wasnt really an issue.

Cheap, basic and usually comfortable...

Liked: I have used this hotel several times before when I have visited my son and his family as it is ten minutes walk from their home. The hotel is basic, cheap and comfortable and suitable for somewhere to stay overnight. Location and price have been my main reasons for choosing this hotel in the past.
Disliked: I visited twice in one week, before and after a flight. In the past I have always had a ground floor bedroom with ensuiteand did on my first night.On my second visit I had a twin bedroom in the basement, down steep stairs to a very dingy setting. The shared bathroom was on the floor above and had no shower. I may have missed this detail when booking but I have always had a comfortable room in the past. I am in my eighties so having to use the stairs to use the bathroom wasn't good, neither was the lack of shower which I was looking forward to after a flight back to London.

Disliked: We did not feel safe in hotel, we didn't stay in the hotel for any longer than about half an hour while I booked a different hotel. I would not recommend this hotel.

Just spend a bit more...

Disliked: The staff who were working decided to have a bbq directly outside my room and were soooo loud till around half 2 in the morning … on a Wednesday evening. Got no sleep and the room stunk of cooked meat … I’m vegetarian. When Leaving , the staff member meant to be attending the front desk was later down asleep on the sofa.
