Ok I get you get what you pay for and I’m fully on board with this but this hotel fell far below my expectations. Room is basic, but ample for what you pay for it. The problem is the awful sewage smell as soon as you put the tap on that you could also smell in the bathroom and corridor - this isn’t normal and really needs addressing. Shower didn’t actually turn on, the tap was completely stuck. Stood there in my pyjamas at 8 in the morning I had no choice but to use brutal force, turned it on to a dribble at best. Managed a “shower” but then no way of turning the thing off. This would’ve been checked when the cleaner last cleaned the shower so how they allowed for the room to be made available for guests is beyond me. Yes you get what you pay for but I’d highly recommend another budget chain.
Recommendation for hotel - can we please normalise discreetly informing check in guests of their room number. Arrived just before midnight on my own with my 10 year old (I’m female) and announced my room number in front of another guest which made me really uncomfortable

Disliked: Room comfort
I did have some men trying to get i to my room which was slightt unnerving.
Room was quite a bit smaller than it appears on the website some what misleasing
This is a very good budget hotel. Room and bathroom was spacious. Plenty of towels provided. Complimentary water bottle and cookies.
Room also provides portal heater and fan which is very important to allow guests to adjust their own ideal room temp.
Only issue is the area, Barking is too far from Central London. The lighting in rooms is very poor and dim. There are no ceilings lights which is bad for the vision. My portable desk lamp provides more light than the hotel room lights.
Overall it is a very good budget hotel and room.
Very surprised by the service, condition, breakfast etc for an Ibis budget, it was brilliant, will definitely be staying again.
The rooms, although basic, are very well sound proofed. The breakfast has all the main basics, and the parking is ample.

Liked: Staff & service
Very noisy next to dual carriageway, bed side lights don’t work, bathroom/toilet smelly but comfortable bed and good shower. Expensive for what it is - a budget hotel.
Overall, this property was quite small, didn't have enough space, could barely walk, theres only 3 lights which makes the room really dark as there is no light in the passage way, only one socket therefore could not charge multiple devices and very stuffy and hot. Would not recommend. I had to cancel my second booking at this hotel beacuse i did not like it.
Rooms are good and comfy. Staff at reception particularly Ana was very helpful and welcoming.

Very noisy, lack of breakfast options.
Very concerning is the fire alarm safety.
Alarm went off during the night and the staff were very mixed on what to do, showing no reassurances what’s so ever.
Lift was also down during our duration of the stay
