decent stay, some issues present
closed bar lukewarm food
the bar was closed during my entire three-night stay. it made the evenings rather dull. the new televisions in the rooms do not support chromecast, and there are no options to watch films through the hotel. breakfast was quite basic with lukewarm cooked options.

a somewhat flawed experience
unreliable wifi hot room
the hotel is very close to public transport as the dlr is a short walk away
the wifi was unreliable it connected but failed to load anything i had to use my mobile data instead the tv mirrored this issue since it relied on the same wifi so internet tv did not work the air conditioning did not function adequately either resulting in an uncomfortably hot room since the windows could not be opened
