Really enjoyed my stay, the room just for me with a large bed, bathrobes, complimentary water, and a Nespresso. I think I must have received an upgrade. The only slight negative the bathroom seemed a bit medical clinical. Breakfast however and all the staff I met were fabulous. Near to Custom House Elizabeth Line station for Heathrow

We stayed for one night to visit and expo in Excel. Great location close to public transport, the room was clean, the beds comfortable. Not very soundproof, we could easily hear people going in and out of the rooms in our corridor but we had a decent night's sleep. Overall good value for money.

Ok stay - be aware that the air con or even fan non heat mode is switched off during winter. Very warm and had to open window but then you get woken up at 7am by the first flights from London City Airport. Reception did give us a fan to use in October!
