My room was a Standard Twin Room Hot. The hot shower had great pressure and consistent temperature. Breakfast included a good selection of pastries and hot items. I found seating very easily each morning.
The elevator made a slightly noticeable noise at night.

great selection friendly service
I stayed for a few nights. The room included a shower, and its door did close properly. The breakfast had a great selection. Staff provided consistently friendly service.
I found the air conditioning did not cool the room sufficiently. I opened the window but it made no difference. The room stayed too hot.

I found the overall room cleanliness lacking. I noticed consistent noise coming from a nearby supply room. This detracted from the comfort of my stay. The hot food at breakfast was cold, and some items were slow to be replenished,.. I found this disappointing.

Excellent Stay Near Stratford

great location easy access good breakfast
I appreciated the great location near the ABBA Voyage and the Stratford station. The hotel was a short walk to both the ABBA arena and the station. Access to the city center via the underground was so easy. Breakfast offered great choices including bacon, scrambled eggs, and a pancake machine.
The air conditioning in my room did not seem to function correctly, it was still a little too warm for sleeping.
