Customer service from the reception team was excellent. They helped me to find a parking space for free and we're generally very respectful and polite. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Negatives: Couple of the lights weren't working and the walls were thin so could hear noise from other guests. Parking was very limited but as mentioned, staff were very helpful - make sure you ask for advice at reception before paying for anything on Ringo!

Showering with beetles

I stayed in room 27 for the first two days then moved to room 24. I told the reception staff that there was a insect infestation problem in the shower unit of room 27 on 5/10/22 before I left for the day. When I returned I was told the unit had been sprayed and the electrical socket which was not working had also been repaired. I again reported there were insects in the shower and a receptionist took a not very clear video of the creature. For my last night at the hotel I was in room 24 there was no issue with that room that I found.

Total Rubbish

I am totally disappointed with the service given in this place. Its the worst I have ever received. Paid over £110 arrived at 9pm for 1 night stay and was told if I don't pay a deposit I can't stay. Room was so small they told me that's all the have. I challenged it and said thats not what I paid for. The change it to another and I just got fed up can't be asked . Next day can u do my refund. It will come in 3 days. Till now my refund is not back. Its pending on my credit card as they won't claim it nor refund it. Its a total shamble never again. I want a refund back and my deposit back

I would give this hotel a passing grade. The location is convenient — only a 3-minute walk to Ilford Station — and the front desk staff are very friendly. However, the building is quite old, and noise travels a lot. You can clearly hear footsteps from the hallway and the room above, so if you’re a light sleeper, this might not be ideal. Housekeeping was also disappointing. They didn’t provide shampoo or soap, even after informing reception, and the bedding wasn’t changed for days — just folded. Garbage was removed, but that was about it. Overall, the stay was okay, but if you can find another hotel in the area for a similar price, I would recommend choosing that instead.

⭐ If I could give 0 stars, I would. Do not book this hotel. The staff are rude and completely unhelpful. I booked through Expedia and selected the pay at the hotel option, as I planned to use a company credit card for payment while working in the area. Within 30 minutes of booking, I noticed a pending charge of £53.10 on my account. Nearly two hours later, another pending charge for the same amount appeared — as I had booked two rooms. I contacted the hotel immediately and was assured the pending payments would be released on the day I checked out. On arrival, I was told the same thing again. Things went downhill quickly from there. • The first room key I was given led to a room still being cleaned. • The second key was for a room that already had someone else’s belongings in it. • The third and final room was so small that a double bed had clearly been crammed into what used to be a single room — the TV was even fixed to a wall facing away from the bed! To make matters worse, many of the residents appeared to be long-term lodgers. The noise was unbearable: shouting, arguing, and even someone screaming down the phone to the DWP about their money. This went on until around 1 a.m., only stopping when they either passed out or finally fell asleep. Just when I thought it couldn’t get worse, the toilet macerator kept switching on randomly throughout the night, making it impossible to rest properly. It’s now been over a week since my stay and my pending payments are still

Henkilökunta oli super ystävällistä! ❤️Sisäänkirjautuminen oli sujuvaa, huone juuri sopiva meille, siisti ja mukava sänky. Ainut mitä olisi kaivattu: pieni jääkaappi johon olisi saanut eväitä kylmään. Seinien läpi kuului äänet kadulta ja muista huoneista, mutta koska nukutaan korvatulpilla, se ei meitå haitannut. Kaksi peittoa olisi ollut meille mukavampi kuin 1 mutta meni se näinkin🤗

The staff there are amazing and I found it very decent for the price. The breakfast is very good, although the options are not that much. However it’s a really good value for money. Plus the location is very good, about 3-5 mins walk from the Elizabeth line which connects you to Central London. I loved my stay and would definitely stay again.
