Friendly guy on reception but took over an hour to check in as there were many guests waiting to be checked in at 3pm Very manual process of finding the guest on the paper list then issuing the door key My room was not supplied with toilet paper so I had to go to reception and ask for a roll Bins were not empty from the previous day

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Advertised check-in time was 15:00, however I had to wait until 21:00 for my room to be cleaned and ready for use, due to a lack of staff. The trash from the previous occupier was still in the bin after fresh bedding were finally put on, so I wasn’t too confident on how clean the rest of the room was. My recommendation: do not book this place.

A very reasonably priced room . The location is great . . . just a 15min walk to Spike Island and Wapping Wharf where there is plenty to see , lots of places to eat and a really good Camra Pub The Orchard Inn . The room is very small . No Tv or side lamp or anything . I stayed with my partner for 2 days so it was a tight squeeze . The bed isn't very big but for the price and location it is what it is . There is a community kitchen with fridge , toaster and a kettle . I can't remember if there was a microwave but probably ! The reception area is very smart and air conditioned and very clean . I would stay again .

Room was perfectly adequate for us. The check in process was appalling. We arrived a couple of hours after the earliest check in time to find a big queue of angry people. Check in was being done by the security guard - he was brilliant and deserves a medal - who was doing his best to resolve all sorts of problems. We checked in eventually after 45 minutes or so. Our heart went out to various people who had clearly been waiting for a very long time to get their rooms. Whoever manages the letting need to get their act together. Rubbish!

We deliberately wanted a kitchen - which we had but nothing in it ie no crockery, cutlery, pots or pans so effectively useless; we constantly received contradictory emails about precheckin etc including one saying ready for checking the day after we already had, another telling us to checkout a day early; the room faced west and was impossibly to sleep in as too hot; we had to request a second towel as only gave us one; Would not recommend this at all

Room was clean and bed comfortable. Check in wasn’t perfect. After completing my I.D check the previous day from a link that only works if you copy and paste from a message that you can barely read. There were still issues on arrival. I had made the booking for my friend and was guest 1. However the I.D links were all linked to guest 2. I did not have my i.d with me so this caused some stress. Also considering this was all on one booking my friend and I were put in separate shared flats! Just seemed a little strange. All got sorted but the process just needs some polishing. Otherwise parking nearby and a quiet location.

Incredibly disappointing stay at the metalworks last weekend. Arrived at check in time for 3pm and there was a long queue already well into the lobby. There were only two staff on the desk who where quickly overwhelmed by how many people were queuing- I am not in anyway blaming them to be clear, but I find it ridiculous that only two people were on the desk (only one of whom seemed to have access to the keycards for the room) on a Saturday afternoon, especially on such a busy day. We waited in line for half an hour to be told our room wasn’t yet ready and were told to wait for another hour in the lobby. Eventually we simply had to ask for the room key regardless of the state of the room so that we could leave our bags and not have to rush back from the event we were already late for. Very disappointing and frustrating experience.

It took us an hour to check in (on Weekends they have no reception staff so poor security are left to do it) because there were so many issues with peoples rooms not being ready or wrong keys being given or rooms not being cleaned- at this point it was already 2 hours after the check in time had started. When we finally got given our keys, we got up to our room and it had not been cleaned. We went down and told security, we went out for dinner and when we got back the room had been cleaned, however we had only been given one bath towel and there were two of us, and no hand towel or bath mat, so went down and the security on the desk didn't know where the big towels were so got given a hand towel to use for a shower. The room was also still very dirty, floor hadn't even been swept let alone cleaned, the shower and toilet were still dirty. You only get given 1 pillow each and they are the flattest pillows I've ever seen. All round horrific experience and the host wouldn't give us a refund or partial refund even though the room wasn't ready or fit for purpose. Would AVOID at all costs if I was you.

Positive: Parking in front of it, bus stops nearby, asda/shops nearby, new building, safe access, lift, quick check in, quiet, clean, 24hrs access, nice spacious lobby. Negative: Bed was not comfy and pillows too flat, very small for 2, vending machine in the lobby charged us twice and didn't give food.

Check in process was poor, no response to messages prior to checking in. Checked in and had to wait even longer as security needed to make a call to confirm check in, despite seeing ID, very unclear why this was, as was not explained. Whole process from arriving at reception to entering my room took about 45 minutes to resolve. Arrived at 1st unit/room and the toilet was dirty as well as floor not cleaned. Was provided with another room which was clean, however had no pillows and half a roll of toilet paper. Whole process was not organised. Communal kitchen bin overflowed with rubbish, from arrival to checking out. Did not see a cleaner once, had to pass through kitchen area to get to room. Place is a student accommodation which isn't clearly listed on advertisement. Day and night time security very pleasant and helpful. Listing should indicate whether there is a cleaner and frequency, I.e once weekly. Air-conditioning was not affective, there are 3 settings, low,medium, high. Was hot during the night, take a fan. Windows dont open wide enough to allow a breeze and if you are on the first floor facing the communal garden, you'll hear everything from individuals talking in the garden.
