Hotel berhampiran Pimp Hall Nature Reserve, Waltham Forest

Liked · The room and bathroom was clean. The owner was initially friendly - I asked about check out time, she said not to worry - whenever I was ready, which was a lovely response. Parking was easy. The bathroom was well presented. Disliked · The shower was scalding - when I told the owner she said 'many people' had complained, but the fault was with me (and the previous people) because we didn't use the dial. I did use the dial and it was scalding. Given that many people have complained, clearly the issue is the shower and not 'many people'. She later said this was 2 people. The owner was hostile at my complaint, which really is not unreasonable. The room is shabby (see pictures). The curtains don't fit, aren't hung properly (see pictures). The furniture is sp**** and shabby (see pictures). Windows frame appears to have melted. Holes in the curtains (see pictures). The bed is squeaky as soon as it is touched. The owner, when I complained about the shower, said she isn't a 5 star hotel, she is a 0 star hotel. This really isn't good enough. The basics I expect is a bed which doesn't squeak and a shower which is usable.

Great customer service from Jodie on reception. She made us feel so welcome upgraded us after we had told her our bad experience at travelodge in Harlow. This was a last minute booking at 10pm when we arrived Jodie couldn’t do enough for us. Lovely personality.

Overall the hotel is perfect. The bedroom is new and large enough that it can house our 3 pieces of 28” luggage. Decoration is decent. The toilet is large and the basin is large in size. Amenities are good enough and the bed is soft and get good support so that we got a good sleep. The location is just opposite to the Westfield Stratford Shopping Center which is large enough to shop everything. Also the shopping center links to the Startford Station where we can take Tube (Jubilee / Central) or Elizabeth Line to any hotspots in London. We believe we will stay here next time.

Good value stay in this well-located capsule-style hotel. Right in the centre of Bethnal Green near the tube station, bus stop, museums, York Hall leisure centre, and various restaurants. Felt fairly safe for a lone female traveller. The compact Queen room was small, as expected, but well designed and did not feel too claustrophobic for one person. The bathroom was nicely decorated, clean and warm. Large TV with various apps (login required). Nespresso machine but no kettle or fridge. The room (on the third floor) looked straight out to the railway line and restaurants under the arches, but the soundproofing was excellent and the blackout blind seemed effective so I had a good night's sleep. Staff were helpful (providing me with a knife and fork to eat a takeaway, for example) but the self-check in/out was unnecessarily complicated, which meant the staff felt they had to be on hand to help guide you through it all the time anyway! Breakfast was included in my room rate but was a little disappointing - no decaffeinated coffee or herbal teabags, fairly limited hot food (bacon, scrambled eggs, beans and hash browns). However the pastries, cereals and so on looked good. Would stay again if a good price was available.

Such a Great Location & the Staff is Amazing! It’s located right next to Kings Cross & Coal Drop Yards which is convenient. Check in is simple & they even let you leave your luggage for free if you get their early & after your check out. The staff is so kind, to the front desk, Maintenance, Cleaning Crew & Management. I love how the beds you can change the color of the Lighting. There are plugs for your phone & a locker to store your stuff. Also a bar to hang socks or a Towel. They have a huge lounge area where you can chill or work & a kitchen. Pretty big kitchen, great way to save $ while traveling! Bathrooms are always clean & always hot water. They have events throughout the week which is great for connecting with new people. You can tell the staff is like family here & genuine souls! Definitely suggest checking out this Hostel when traveling to London! My next trip into London, I’ll definitely be staying here. 💚

Dari segi asrama, perkhidmatannya bagus. Bilik bersih, dengan cadar, sarung bantal dan sarung selimut disediakan. Akan ada sedikit bunyi pada waktu malam, tetapi ia tidak terlalu banyak untuk diterima. Lokasinya adalah kira-kira 8 minit berjalan kaki ke stesen kereta api bawah tanah, yang ok dan mudah.

I used to use this hostel back when it was under YHA management. I’ve always picked it for its close proximity to Euston and King’s Cross. This is the first time I’ve been back since it changed hands. Glad to report that the hostel is still as it was. Polite and helpful staff, modern rooms with beds that have individual lights and charging sockets, lockers for valuables, clean and well kept bathrooms, a bar area downstairs to eat and have drinks if you desire. I stayed in a 6-bed female only dorm and was happy with my stay. Bed was comfortable, my items were safe (locks can be purchased behind the reception for £4), and the sockets can charge multiple devices with the dual USB sockets + a regular 3-pronged socket. Will advise that you turn the main room light off when you want go to sleep as my co-inhibitors left the main light on all night on my last night for some reason. The one area they could improve on was having another pillow on the beds. Mine was so used that it was mostly flat and made very little difference to my comfort.

Quick check in and check out, friendly staff. Smaller room than expected, was assigned the top deck which wasn’t pleasant as had to climb up and down and couldn’t sit straight due to low ceiling. Room was extremely stuffy and warm, and door was creaky. Locker was kinda broken and couldn’t be closed fully / locked, wouldn’t slide smoothly and could only drag it across the carpet floor with much difficulty. Thankfully each bed came with its own reading light and power socket. Can only say you get what you pay for, the low price was unbeatable. Suitable for backpackers for a night or two, but not for those with loads of luggage.

The experience was pretty good, but they do not provide any amenities inside the room, even drinking water was not there inside the room
