Guest Reviews
- Karon (9/5): -
- Gary (10/5): -
- Irene (10/5): Excellent waterfront location - Fabulous location. Very comfortable with everything you could possibly want. The host Odeta was extremely welcoming and helpful. Would definitely stay again when visiting London.
- Murat (7/5): - Lokasyon çok iyi Tuvalet & Banyo odadan ayrı, koridorda ev sahipleri ile karşılaşabiliyorsunuz. Mutfak da ayrı ve yine ev sahiplerinin kullandığı koridorun sonunda. Ayrıca mutfakta yemek yapmak için ocak veya fırın yok, sadece mikrodalga var. Bu detayların oda bilgilerinde verilmesi gerektiğini düşünüyorum.
- Lindsay (5/5): Nothing advised that this is actually the ground floor of someone's house to which they have access - It was a fairly convenient location for Excel - you do have to walk over the bridge which has eight flights of stairs each way - but is just the other side of the water so fairly convenient. I liked the fact that you had access to a garden. Little touches like the packs of toothbrushes and toothpaste were nice. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom nice. Everything was clean. The host was a really nice lady. Nowhere was it made clear that this is actually the ground floor of someone's house to which they have access and it was not a private apartment. It is a three story house and you enter on the ground floor where there is a garage door, a bedroom, a bathroom, a laundry room and access to the garden. This is what they are renting out. The "kitchenette" is actually their laundry room with a microwave and a coffee machine and a couple of plates on a high shelf. The host is very nice and got us bowls but there was no kettle. This is definitely not a kitchenette. There is a separate very small fridge under the stairs. Obviously when renting out their ground floor they live in the two floors above but still have to access using the front door and no part of what you are renting out is closed off. There was a lock on the bedroom door and bathroom but the hall they come off of can be accessed and seen at any time by opening the front door or coming down the stairs. I actually had no idea that this was the set up, would not have rented had I have known and even now looking back, I cannot see where this is clear. Be advised that the booking says there is a kettle but there isn't. We had to make a cup of tea by heating up water in the microwave. It also says fireplace but this is in fact a fire on the wall in the bedroom.
If you want to rent a room a small but comfortable and clean room in someone's house with a nice bathroom - but I think a kitchenette is a stretch, then this is great. I wouldn't book again as this is not really what I want. I'd much rather pay a bit more and go to a hotel. However the price was good and if this arrangement suits you, then this is the place.
- Frédéric (8/5): I recommend without any hesitation for visiting a trade show at Excel London Place - Accueil parfait, très sympathique, perfect!
Très propre, parfait pour passer une nuit lors d'un salon.
Je recommande sans aucun problème
- RoyalFamilyMember (10/5): More than expected. - Perfect localization, very clean, nice furnitures and design, very friendly flat owners, room with separate bathroom and kitchen, with access to nice, small back garden. TV and WiFi with no obstacles.

- Lizzie (10/5): Please go its wonderful! - Odeta was a wonderful host and even though I was racing around at a conference she was so accommodating. The room was warm and comforting and her and her family made me feel at home I would 10000% go again if Im in London Nothing
- Tibor (10/5): Perfect for a short stay near Excel - The proximity to Excel and DLR, cleanliness, the mattress. A little fridge would be handy.
- Patrizia (10/5): -
- Debbie (7/5): - Clean and comfortable with an excellent location for the Excel Centre. A little noisy overnight-kitchenette was next to the room and being used in the might.
- Beverley (9/5): An immaculately clean room, although compact. Great location, close to Custom House train station. - Great location, excellent communication with host. Immaculately clean.
- Gertraud (8/5): Praktisches kleines Appartement in schöner Wohngegend - Sehr sauber, praktisch, schöne Lage an den Docks, sehr freundliche Begrüßung und hilfreiche Hinweise. Tee und Kaffee vorhanden. Der elektrische Fireplace hat schnell warm gemacht. DLR-Station Westsilvertown nur 5 Gehminuten entfernt, zu den Cable Cars ebenso.
- Nicci (10/5): Perfect stay within walking distance from Excel - Fabulous location to Excel
Perfect for our nights stay
Hosts friendly and helpful and even allowed us to park at the location once checked out which was extremely helpful and kind
Really clean facilities Nothing...it was perfect!
- ANDREA (10/5): A legjobb valasztas ! - A leheto legjobb valasztas volt , mivel rovid setanyira van az Excel London-tol.
A lakas tokeletes, tiszta, jol felszerelt segitokesz tulajdonossal biztonsagos, csendes kornyeken !
Ha csak tehetjuk egeszen biztosan visszaterunk ide ! nem volt ilyen
- Alan (8/5): Reasonably priced ground floor room in owners house, very close to the London EXCEL centre - The location is perfect for visiting the EXCEL centre. You can walk there in 5 to 10 minutes. There is a local corner supermarket about 3 minutes walk. Free parking for one car at the property
- Aimee (10/5): -
- Emmanuelle (10/5): -
- Michelle Woodbridge (10/5): - Brilliant location, close to the 02.
I recommend using the IFS skylift, it was amazing!
The hosts were absolutely lovely and went out of their way to help.
Lovely comfortable room and exceptionally clean. Nothing
- Matias (8/5): Excelente opcion para asistir al Excel Center -
- Alessandro Bottazzi (8/5): -
- Stefan (9/5): Perfect for a stay to visit a fair at the Excel - Very friendly landlady, Quiet but central location, clean and tidy - super Coffee machine :-) all good
- Attyf (10/5): - Très propre, je me suis senti comme a la maison
- Emma (10/5): Brilliant! - Very comfortable and well thought out accommodation with everything you could need. Extra touches too like spare toothbrush and toiletries. Also everything was very good quality. Very comfortable bed. Parking right outside the door and very close to Excel. Short walk and then over pedestrian bridge. Just be aware the lifts don't work on the bridge and there's 8 flights of steps each end which is fine if you're not scared of heights! Would definitely stay again The only feedback would need that there was a strong smell from the kitchen area but didn't impact on the bedroom at all
- Jorge (8/5): Estada agradável em alojamento particular. - Da amabilidade dos elementos da família que aluga este quarto. De um modo global, das características do quarto (com acessibilidade a casa de banho privativa e a cozinha, cozinha que não utilizei) , considerando o tipo de alojamento em que se inclui. Muito próximo do ExCel e com ligação fácil ao centro de Londres utilizando Metro e DLR.
- Suzanne (9/5): Cute little stay - Location was great for our stay. It was very important for us to have parking which was great. Room was small but cosy but had everything you needed. Good communication and friendly host. Coffee selection was great however there was no milk. Even powdered milk or UHT milk would have been good. But not a big issue just would have been nice.
- Stefan (10/5): -
- Claire (10/5): Brilliant stay and we would certainly use it again especially for events going on at Excel Arena. - Very clean and cosy the bedroom, with a kitchenette, shower and a lovely court yard out the back which was perfect for breakfast, lunch and a cider in the evening.
The Excel Arena is about a 10 minute walk over the foot bridge which has lots of eateries, plus a very good Thai restaurant by the beach area.
Odeta went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect and answered any questioned that I had and even went as far as posting some clothing that I had left on the back of the bedroom door. Nothing.
- Lisa E (10/5): Absolute gem - Everything was perfect, the room, the amenities, the location, the host, the value. Absolutely superb, so welcoming.
- Deborah (10/5): Perfect location for o2 arena - We were in London to go to a concert at the o2 arena, so the location was perfect. It was a short walk to the sky lift, which we took to the arena. It was also a 15 minute walk to the train station at Custom House. The room was clean and comfortable.
- Hadlow (8/5): - Perfect for anyone using O2 arena. 5min walk to station then a couple stops to the Arena
- Mike (6/5): Great location - Not really what I expected for the cost Small and felt we were intruding
- Alan (8/5): - Lovely and clean great location. Very helpful and friendly. Noisy due to being at the end of London airport runway. Could leave some ear plugs for guest to use that would help.
- Andrew (9/5): Superb -
- Marambio (10/5): cozy, clean and in front of the excel - Although it's a family home, the accommodation is very independent, comfortable, clean, and quiet.
A special mention goes to Odeta, the host. She's charming and helpful. She makes you feel at home.
The location is perfect. Across a bridge, I was at the Excel Center, where I worked, and steps away from two metro stations.
- Sam (9/5): Superb -
- Bjarni (8/5): Great if attending Excel event as a solo traveller - Great value for money - and great location as I was attending a conference at ExCel, which was only 10 minutes away.
- Robert (10/5): Lovely room. - Location was ideal for our trip to Excel London. The hosts, Odeta and Linas were very pleasant and helpful. The bed was extremely comfortable and toilet/shower very clean.A small kitchen is available for cooking.There is an enclosed garden to sit and have a drink in the evening.
Will definitely book again when in that area of London. Nothing to dislike.
- Sharon (9/5): Superb - excellent location ( we were going to an event at the Excel centre and it was a few mins walk away) very close to the docks so nice views and a couple of nice bars/restaurants close by - parking onsite for our car and private facilities ( kitchen/bathroom/private garden space) spotlessly clean and very comfy bed :) no draws or wardrobe ( just hooks on the back of the door and the room was very compact!) but we were only staying for one night so didn't really affect us.
- Danielle (9/5): Business stay over for Excel conference - Extremely comfortable bed and room. Shower was fantastic , great pressure. Host was excellent very helpful and accommodating, with lots of great suggestions for activities. Friendly and comfortable 👌 nothing.
- Chris (10/5): Excellent room, great hosts and very pleased 😀 - Excellent room, great shower and kitchen area with everything you need and more. Lovely hosts and nothing was too much trouble. We will certainly be booking again when next in London. Nothing was superb.
- Alistair (9/5): Very comfortable. I would certainly stay again. - Friendly, welcoming, clean and tidy. I wouldn't necessarily call the fireplace an actual fireplace, but that's just a minor point.
- Anastasia (10/5): Ideal for the Excel - Had a great time !
- Falcão (10/5): Exceptional - The location was perfect because i attended in a conference at Excel London, and it was just a quite and beautiful walk to there. We have a train/metro station near, about 5 minutes walking. It was really great.
- Sedien (7/5): Good - Walking distance from the ExCel centre. The owner was very helpful. Did not know we would be sharing the property with a family.
- Victoria (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely location, perfect for the Excel which is just a 5 minute walk over the bridge. Very quiet area. The room was perfect, very comfortable bed and spotlessly clean. Toilet and sink situated opposite the room and full private bathroom upstairs. Also a small kitchen area next to the bedroom. The host was friendly and easily available and there was a parking space outside. We loved our stay!
- David (9/5): Quite the find! - Excellent location, just across the bridge from Excel, London
Clean, well appointed with access to own small kitchen area, and private bath & toilet
