Very good

I would give this hotel...

Liked: The location and staff were great.
Disliked: The room was absolutely filthy. The shower sprayed all over the entire bathroom and the tiny curtain didn?t prevent this at all. The shower was also TINY, there weren?t even any shelves to place toiletries on. We also booked a room with a sofa bed for three guests (I double-checked the booking and it was for three) but the sofa bed did not have sheets and we had to request them and an extra towel from the front deck. The king bed was as hard as a rock, both my partner and I were sore the next day from sleeping on it. One of the elevators was down and after waiting 10+ minutes for the only working elevator, we decided to drag our luggage up the stairs instead.

Local area I know is...

Liked: Ease of booking in and out
Disliked: Evening food service - stopped at 9pm

A great central hotel. Will...

Liked: central location. easy to find and check in. no frills but felt great
Disliked: there weren?t any irons on my floor! that was literally the only thing. there were on the next floor down though so no bother.

brill and will stay again

Liked: it?s uniqueness
Disliked: had a problem with the room at first (wanted twin room ) but this was sorted very quickly

Very clean and efficient

Liked: Very clean and efficient hotel, all you need for a city trip stay is there. Very little hassle with automated check in and out, nice cafe with good breakfast, very centrally located near underground, Brick Lane, Shoreditch and the City.
Disliked: Room without windows was a bit smallish. Climate control seemed to be stuck on 'very hot' even though we adjusted it, which made the room quite toasty as there weren't any windows either. Automated checkin is convenient but it would have been a plus if we could have checked in a bit earlier, as the hotel didn't seem to be full at all.

Very good

Liked: The room was ok, nothing special, but the bed was really comfortable. I really liked that it is just next to brick lane and the tube was also 2 minutes away.
Disliked: I did not like that there was not really a reception. I was expecting a delivery but even if I told several people I always had to go back and check. The package had already arrived and I had to insist because they told me it hadn't.

as it was a Black...

Liked: Room was funky but the picture of people behind the bed was a bit weird to wake up to. most of the staff were really friendly! the location is also really good ! dogs are welcome which was brilliant :)
Disliked: the shower was cold and hair dryer didn?t work so was cold going to bed ! tried calling reception a few times but no answer. the bathroom unfortunately wasn?t cleaned and found lots of hair shavings around the toilet :( breakfast food variety isn?t that good in the sense there was nothing for coeliacs.
