Good location, walking distance to railway public transit. The groceries store next door was a "nice to have". Conditions were ok, the room & bath pretty minuscule but that is expected for the cheap accommodations in Europe. The breakfast area is ok, a fully functional kitchen with self-service. Not a lot of options in the "menu" but it did its job well.

Nice location for Abba Voyage.

We booked the hotel as it was 10 minutes walk from the Abba Arena. Room was clean and comfortable but it was a bit of a struggle carrying suitcases (we had big cases as this was the start of a long trip) up the stairs. The host did with the cases which eas nice of him. Rooms are a bit basic but clean and comfortable. Breakfast was basic but good for a budget hotel. Ideal location for Abba Voyage with Bow Road station being less than 10 minutes and Bow Church station accross the road.

It was about 3-5 mins walk from the nearest tube. My room was clean when I arrived, I wasnt expecting that they offer a self-service breakfast, that was a plus.

It was great to have access to the kitchen where we had the supplies for breakfast to hand. Friendly and helpful people on reception. Cleanliness could be much better eg: the stairwell needed a vacuum; kitchen surfaces, cooker nobs, handles, bathroom tiles seemed sticky and needing a clean. But overall our stay was good, towels, bedding and bedroom clean. Thanks for having us.

Wouldn’t stay at this property again.

I was expecting a better room. The overall condition of the property is terrible. I had a room facing the road. There was no fan in the room and of you left the window open, you could not sleep the entire night. Shred kitchen was very useful and it was well stoked. Receptionist were very helpful.

Somewhere to go after night out.

This Hotel is very basic but great value for money, the staff were friendly and helpful at cheack in. The room was found clean, but housekeeping had forgotten to take bag of soiled nappies from the room, the staff were very apologetic about this. The bed was comfortable and slept well and the room was very quite, despite being on Bow Road. You could make yourself breakfast in the morning, toast, eggs and cereal.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
So the owner is very nice can’t do enough for you let me check in early which I was most grateful for. but the cleanliness let it down. the high areas of the room need dusted asap that includes the wardrobe top shelf and floor behind sink also kitchen could be a bit cleaner Although I did enjoy having access to a kitchenette but it’s a converted house so noise travels in that place. You hear the doorbell late at night it startles you I liked the fact that it was close to the UAL and the DLR station and Bow Road station is within walking distance to the lodge. There is also a laundrette and a convenience store next door which is better than the Asdas express. Westfield shopping complex on the DLR and it have late night shopping till 9 not a bad place to be honest

Very basic, but good value for money

Good value, polite check in (including an offer to carry my bag upstairs). Room far too hot and a bedside lamp would have been a welcome addition. Entry stair carpet needs a good clean, but the room itself was clean. However for an overnight stay it was good value and I would book again.
