No a good experience this time

Got a room that looked okay but carpet had not been vacuumed properly. The air conditioner did not work and the shower tray was dirty with hair and debris left there. Have stayed on the property before so expected better

Friendly and welcoming

Fantastic stay for MCM Comic Con at the Excel centre. The family that run the pub as well as the hotel are lovely and so friendly, the room was cosey but perfect for our stay. We usually put a do not disturb sign on when we're staying for a few nights, as we are happy to use towels for a few days and think about the eco impact of having your room cleaned everyday. On our second day back we found a bag on the door and a note with some extra tea and sugar as well as fresh towels if we wanted them, which we've never had before and is so, so kind. The food in the pub is lovely as well and was a great place to eat, but there are loads of options in the area! The music is loud and stops at about 2am over the weekend and midnight during the week, but for us on the top floor it wasn't too bad and we could still get to sleep during it. Would definately come back and stay.
