What you see is what you get!
I was looking for a hotel near the excel centre at a fair price. i got 4 nights here (including a full breakfast) for $410 canadian dollars! the hotel is easy to get to from heathrow (paddington express, bakerloo/jubilee/dlr) in just over an hour. it is a 5 minute walk from the dlr station, if that. the hotel is clean, the lobby has the excellent breakfast room and bar/restaurant, which definitely serves its purpose. the rooms are large, bright and clean, with a desk. there is free internet in the lobby, that did not work 2 of the 4 days i was there. when it works, it is fine. intenet in the rooms is way too expensive. there is only soap in the room. there is no shampoo in the room, so be prepared to bring your own or pay 5 pounds in the lobby vending machine. i arrived at 1 pm, and needed to pay 10 pounds to check in, or wait to 3 pm! it is about 40 minutes by tube to central london. this is an excellent buy, good location (especially if you need to be at the excel centre), good breakfast, no surprises. a few downsides, but bearable for the excellent price.
